It was tricky. I had to wait for the woman to return

The Woman flat denied that she had made the dent even though it aligned perfectly with her sharp edged bumper. She says her pdc works fine so it was impossible to have hit my car. Later that evening, her husband phoned to admit liability though. |

The same way they park is the exact same way they drive, like they are walking at the mall. Have you noticed that no matter where you are at the mall -looking at a store display, walking, just sitting in a bench- somebody, out of nowhere, sooner or later, will bump into you, stand in front of you while you are looking at that display, and basically just ignore your presence and personal space? That's the same way they drive and park. |

I was coming out of the grocery store walking towards my car when I saw this lady loading groceries in the the trunk of a brand new S-class MB. She was parked across the aisle from me. When she finished loading her groceries, she simply shoved the shopping cart across the parking aisle to get rid of it. The shopping cart rolled until it crashed on my rear bumper . So I shouted "Hey lady, watch it. This is my car you just hit." To which she snottily replied "Calm down, it's just a car." When I got to my car, I took the shopping cart the was resting against my rear bumber (it made a small scratch on the paint ) and I swung it back across the aisle. It crashed on the lady's rear bumper. She got out of her car obviously upset and screamed at me "Are you crazy, what is your problem?" To which I very calmly replied "Calm down lady, it's just a car." Last edited by CanAutM3; 12-20-2012 at 08:32 AM.. |

Though with the M3, there is some evidence of real curiosity. The forehead and finger imprints on my windows are not mine. I don't flatter myself, probably someone checking for visible Apple items. |

It's the thing about human nature. There are Leaders and then there are Followers ... too many are followers ... you see to follow is much easer then leading
So the fellow parking next to you saw you as leader and simply was a follower parking next to you made him feel safe, since you already made the decision that parking there was okay. Just a follow up on Leading and Following .. Speaking of leading and following one item from my past business life came to mind I like to share with you. And that is ... At one point in my life I had over 20 highly educated people report direct to me. They came to me with the most outrages questions expecting me to solve there problems. Some of them had a better education and knowledge of the business as I at the time. So I thought about it what I should do. My solution was to tell them ... "Think of three solutions to your question, when you have them let's discuss it and see if we can find a solution, if it does not answer your question I'll think of something" You see it made leaders out of them instead of followers. Naturally in the end it made my day to day business live more pleasant and I was able to do my work.

In my M3 I park away from others in the hopes that no one dings me. In my truck I park far away because it's too damn big to maneuver in those crowded close up places.

Same thing when I'm taking a piss. There could be 10 empty urinals and they come and take a piss right next to you. Whatever happened to the leave a stall in between rule?

No matter how far out I park, there is always some idiot right next to me when I come back out. The other 75% of the lot can be empty, but there they are next to me. It's never an equally special car either.
