Parking Space Theif!

You have an appointment in medical building. Pulling into the parking lot there is only one open space. And that spaced is marked "reserved"!

"You only need to park for about twenty minutes!"

Would you park in that reserved space? :-3

No, we have a wheel clamping service that operates here. Just not worth taking the chance.

No - I wouldn't but I'll tell you a little story..........

A friend of mine works for a large supermarket chain here in Belfast and he happened to be out in the car park one afternoon recently. While walking past the disabled parking section, he happened to notice a man getting out of a new flashy Merc. He stopped the man and said to him.......

"Excuse me Sir, you've forgotten to put your blue badge (disabled) on display on your dashboard.

To which the man replied........

"Do I look like I'm disabled? I'm just parking there coz the spaces are bigger and I don't want anyone hitting my new car!"

Some people baffle me!!:-5

If it just says reserved and nothing else, for all I know it could be reserved for people coming for appointments. At least that is what I will tell the judge.

I have mixed emotions about being a parking theif myself, I don't do it but. . . .! There are no other spots available at all, & it's only for 20 minutes. But if the person who the spot is reserved for comes along within those 20 minutes what then? (What are the odds?) :-3

Guess trying to "double park" without boxing other cars in could be an option. Again it's only for 20 minutes. :-2

Well now, that is something I personally would never ever even consider doing!!! (Not even just for 1 minute!)

To me that's for disabled people only, & I am thankful every day that I am not "entitled to fit that category"!

Unfortunately I do fit that category and I know for a fact that I would have given Mr Flash a piece of my mind:(
