my street is getting paved (whoo hooo!!!) anyway they put down a layer of asphalt on friday and on sat the crews were back to put another layer. well since my street is the only one in the neighborhood that is paved now i have seen kids i have never seen before riding their bikes and racing up and down.
well on sat the kids were out again and my wife heard the guys running the big ass rollers and other various forms of heavy equipment used in paving streets telling the kids to go someplace else. and some of them do.
well i get home about 2 or so and the crews are still out there but one block up. im in my driveway and one kid keeps riding his bike up and down the street but stopping where the crews are. So not wanting any kids to get hurt i tell the kid (8-9 year old boy) to go ride someplace else until the crews are done.
he says they arent working here.
so i say it doesnt matter they are still working and they are going down to the dead end from time to time. so he rides off.
i go inside for a few min then go back out to start mowing. the kid is back and doing circles in front of my driveway eyeballing me. i ignore it for a bit but its really hitting a nerve. so i ask him if he understood english.
his response was. I dont have too.
me: :Q
me: excuse me?
him: i dont have to listen to you, my dad said.
me : :|
me: look kid i dont care waht your dad said, its not safe for you to ride here right now. so ride someplace else until the workers are gone then you can come back.
him: my dad said i dont have to listen to you.
me: :| :|
me: Go someplace else and if your dad has a problem with that tell him to come talk to me.
The little sh*t rides off. so i start mowing my yard.
well sure enough dad shows up.
dad: yougot a problem with my boy?
me: no, but i do have a problem with him riding his bike and getting int he way of the construction equipment.
him: dont tell my boy what to do ever again.
me: :|
me: look pal, i dont know where you live but its obvious that you have no idea where he is or what he is doing. its obvious that you dont care about his safety or you would tell him to stop riding here and just wait until the crew is gone. is it that hard to understand?
him: he is fine but im waring you dont tell my boy what to do.
me: :| :| :|
me: tell you what pal. your kid was the only one out here all the other kids were smart enough to move along. even my kids are not out right now but they will be when the crews are gone for the day.
him: did you hear what i said?
me: I did but you didnt hear what i said so this conversation is over and get the f*ck out of my yard. and i start up the lawnmower and continue mowing and he leaves.
what a f*ck tard.
