that's my spot!

My husband and I have a 'spot' at the grocery store that he really gets worked up about if someone takes it. It's right next to be buggy return and it's close to the entrance. I'm glad someone else feels the need to claim a spot...not just us.:)

my brother gets totally bent out of shape if someone steals "his" spot in front of the house. i keep telling him deal..we have a driveway. parking lots are a bit more understandable though.we have people here that jump right in front of you while you're trying to back in.

Where i live i park in the same parking space almost everyday if nobody else is parked there.So one day this lady parked in the space and she realized i was getting ready to park somewhere else and she yelled out im getting ready to move.I was saying to myself its not not reserved for me but she knew i park there everyday and as she was leaving she yelled that.LOL I have to admit if i see someone parked there i think to myself awwwwwww man.LOL

I have a favorite spot back in Singapore when I go to mom place. It is near the lobby of the flat. Unfortunately, that is other people favorite spot too! I will get disappointed if it is taken up and my parent will laugh and tease me that I had to park elsewhere.

Such things happen occasionally, anger is useless as some people are being unreasonable

Well, there are people who absentmindedly park because of a hectic day or being late for something big in his/her job. Plus we must also consider those who are not 'regular' in the building or simply failed to see that that spot was yours because it didn't have a name anyways. I do have a 'spot' somewhere but it's ok if someone uses that one, it simply meant that he/she was there first. There's what we call, first come first served notice as an invisible rule. Well, unless you are the owner of that spot, or the president of the United States. *LOL* Here's a joke to keep the topic light: A minister parked his car in a no-parking zone in a large city because he was short of time and couldn't find a space with a meter. Then he put a note under the windshield wiper that read: "I have circled the block 10 times. If I don't park here, I'll miss my appointment. FORGIVE US OUR TRESPASSES." When he returned, he found a citation from a police officer along with this note. "I've circled this block for 10 years. If I don't give you a ticket, I'll lose my job. Lead Us Not Into Temptation." =)

Yeah i do get upset when someone parks their car in the spot where i park my car. This spot is below my building and many a times someone from my building park their car in that spot. They have their own garage but still at times they will park their vehicle at the spot where i park. Luckily there is a bike repairer just opposite my building who he is very friendly to me. So he parks his bike whenever i remove my car and when i return home, he removes his bike and lets me park. So it's good nowadays that since he reserves my parking, i can freely remove my car. Otherwise earlier it used to be very difficult and i had to park my car at 10-15 minutes walking distance from my place.
