Bloody Childish idiots!

[milly143]

What is it with some adults that makes them behave like such bloody childish prats?

Here are work there are 4 units in the yard. Only 2 of the units have a dedicated parking space, mine and the one next door but there is ample parking for everyone else. This morning when I arrived one of the guys had his van parked in my space so I parked my car in the space next to another unit (one without a dedicated space). The guy from that unit showed up a little while ago and instead of parking his little van directly in front of his unit like he normally does, even though it isn't actually a parking space and makes it harder for me to get out of mine, he has decided to park it in front of my car so it would be impossible for me to get out without asking him. I then saw him doing something behind my car. It looks like he has a screwed a notice to the fence suggesting that is his space.

Well despite the fact he is hardly ever here, usually never parks there anyway, normally parks in an area that makes it harder for me to get out (but I just get on with it because I like to be a considerate neighbour) and that I've never been made aware that is HIS space, why the hell not just pop over - as my door is wide open - and say "hello, sorry to bother you but did you realise you have parked in my space?". I would have happily moved my car. Theres no need to be a complete fudging dick wad about it.

I'm waiting until I need to go out in a while where I will politely ask that he moves his vehicle 3 foot forward to where it would normally be, so that I can get my car out. Prick.

You all get this rant because there is nobody here in the office for me to moan at.

"Write ''SHELLFISH BASTARD'' on the side of his van." ha ha ha ha. I AM going to do that.

"Maybe for some reason he just doesn't like you?!!".

Wouldn't blame him. Most people are not a fan. But I'm sticking with my "I was here first" attitude.

Oh, I just got your joke there Postdog. fnar fnar.

Can't imagine why, you seem delightful.

milly............... take no notice of him, he likely suffers from " small man syndrome " now youve had your rant :) have a cup of coffee.

[notasyoungasiwas]

Do you feel better now you've got all that of your chest milly? Sometimes, I'm really glad I don't drive!

[cazzz1975]

I resent that expression Anne, belittling men is a poor argument

[anneasquith]

cazzzz, you resent a humerous post. with " small man syndrome " in it ?

[ttfn]

I have had similar situations over the years, milly, and I tend to wonder if the driver of the vehicle blocking me in will be 'available' to move their car when I need to leave. It can become a bit of a worry.

But on the bright side ... I had an emegency early morning appointment at the hospital this week and got there nice and early. The huge car parks were quite full, but, after 1 lap only, I found 3 spaces. Parked neatly and went to the ticket machine, passing 2 vehicles who had parked where they felt like it and blocked other drivers in. They both had parking tickets on the windscreen. Fair made me smile, I have to say ;)

[cazzz1975]

Humour is subjective..

[Keleez]

some people do it just to be petty, maybe its about time you stopped being so nice...if you have a space that you are entitled to, then put up a sign...the short version of...park here and you will be clamped lol and if that doesnt work then go buy a clamp...you dont neccessarily have to use it...if its at work the just put it by your desk for all to see, word will soon spread lol am a bit confused as to whether you are talking about a space at home or work as you seem to suggest both..goodluck

[anneasquith]

cazzz. if you object to the phrase, i have no problem in you having my post removed.

[cazzz1975]

It's his designated parking space, clamping him will more than likely get her into trouble, it's easier to just not park in that place next time, as the car park for everyone is ample, then it shouldn't be a problem finding an alternative should the director park in her parking space again.

[cazzz1975]

I objected to the use of the cheap shot (small man syndrome) as it is not a valid argument. Similarly if the situation was reversed and a man retorted that the woman must be on her period because she is moody. There is no need to remove the post.

[Keleez]

Hang on am confused i thought it was milly143's designated parking space not the other guys my mistake..it got a bit confusing and anyway the clamp doesnt have to be used...milly you should tell the guy who parked in your space to move, then problem solved...and btw milly, if someone deliberately blocks you into a parking space and you cannot remove your car, then you do have the right to ring the police and have them move it for you, ive seen this happen many times, his car/van will either be bounced out of the way or the police will order a lorry with a winch and just lift it out of the way then hand him the bill

The person parked in "her space" is her managing director, I don't think he's appreciate a winching.

She parked in a space which is actually reserved for someone else. He was probably reminded why he had that sign made when he saw someone had parked in his space.

I think Milly was a bit angry earlier but may, upon reflection, just park somewhere else in future.

[Keleez]

i didnt say it about the guy who parked his van in her space i said about the guy who deliberately blocked her in

[Keleez]

she also said the space she parked in was NOT designated to anyone

This morning when I arrived one of the guys had his van parked in my space so I parked my car in the space next to another unit (one without a dedicated space).

[milly143]

Phew, Ed got it right, except I hadn't realised was meant to be his space when I parked there as he hadn't bothered to put his little sign up until today.

My point was he could have just wondered over to me and explained. But now I know, I will never park there again.

And yes, I was a little angry this morning. But I'm over it now.
