If you’re looking for places where the worst sides of people are bound to come to the surface, look no further than your closest parking lot, where impatience is almost always at an all-time high.
Recently, I found myself empathizing with the folks who lose their marbles in these stressful situations as I came to the realization that I had become one of them. We were trying to find a parking spot for my partner’s parents, who were visiting for a long weekend. We reserved a space on an app and arrived at the parking lot only to discover that there was a glitch online, claiming that there was far more space in the lot than there was. This resulted in a difficult phone conversation with the customer service representative from the parking space app, who refused to give us a refund or help us transfer our booking to another nearby place. It got to a place where I found myself exhibiting the same frustration and anger as this Redditor did when an unnecessarily aggressive truck driver was giving him a hard time.Â
Thankfully, the Redditor was in a position to make the truck driver’s life even more difficult with the help of an older lady who was pulling into the Redditor’s old parking space.
