the mall by me is packed all the time on the weekends. sometimes it can take half an hour before you find a spot, and that's at the far end of the parking lot.
generally what i do is i'll look for shoppers leaving the mall and follow them to their car. so i found this couple, hands full of shopping bags, walking out of the mall towards the parking lot.
i politely roll down my window and ask if they are leaving, to which they respond "yes, our car is over there" and points to a black 1997 nissan altima. so i proceeded to follow them to their car.
meanwhile, this lady and her 8 year old son in a 2003 toyota camry is camped out in one of the aisles just waiting for a car to leave (she is about a couple hundred of feet away from where the eventual spot is). i go around her and arrive at the altima and flash my blinkers.
before the couple even starts their car, the lady in the camry comes flying next to me, blocks the altima from leaving, rolls down her window, motions me to roll mine down, so i comply... and she starts to scream at me, saying she's been waiting 30 minutes for a spot and that this is her spot.
i calmly reply to her that you have no right to claim this spot, your blinkers were not on, it doesn't matter how long you've been waiting, you are about 200 feet away and you're wrong to think that you can just camp out have dibs on the first available spot.
but basically she didn't hear a word i said because she was so irate and busy screaming at me.
after 2 minutes of this, a car 100 feet (i believe it was a 2004 benz e-class) ahead leaves and she floors it and takes that spot. i'm left shaking my head, as i wait for the altima to leave so i can pull in.
eventually, we meet up again at the mall entrance, where she was purposely waiting for me and she starts to argue with me again. She starts to get heated again and i calmly tried to reason with her. i rehashed all my above arguments and explain we both have spots now, nothing to be upset over and she calls me an asshole.
at that point i gave up reasoning with her and i told tell her she should watch her language in front of her own child, she should set a good example for her son, blahblahblah all just to piss her off further which worked wonderfully. she goes completely berserk, screaming F you, i'm a mofo, etf.
my gf just pulls me into the mall to get out of that scene but afterwards she gets mad at me for purposely provoking her and continuing the argument (which was true 😛)
i just said i did no wrong, i was calm the whole time, did not raise my voice, did not use inappropriate language, etc.
spent the next 30 minutes arguing with the gf about the argument 🙁
cliffs:
1. mall parking lot is packed.
2. i follow a couple to their car
3. crazy lady screams at me, claiming the spot is hers even though she was a mile away
4. we both eventually get spots
5. argument (at least for her) escalates at mall entrance
6. gf pulls me away gets mad at me 🙁
