Semi-owned the little tramp in the handicapped parking spot...

No cliffs.

Last night my son and I are walking into Walgreens. We had plenty of time to cross the parking lot when this 18 year oldish little brat comes flying in straight for us and whips it into the handicap spot right up front, really just missing me by a few feet.

As she gets out we're passing by her. I stare her down without trying to be subtle but she just won't bite on some smart ass talk time because she has her cell buried in her ear. She sees me though, just won't acknowledge me.

Anyway, we go in, and the more I think about it the more it pisses me off that I didn't say something to her. The little twat had no handicap plates nor one of those rear view mirror placards.

So as we're checking out I ask the girl at the register for a peice of paper and a pen. I jot down "I didn't think you were handicapped until I heard you talk on the phone."

On our way out I put it under her windsheild wiper. I was going to leave but my son asked if we could stay and watch her reaction. I thought, what the hell, there's gotta be a good lesson in here somewhere for him, so we stayed.

A few minutes pass and no girl. So I think to myself "What good is a note going to do?". It might piss her off for a short while, but she'll go right back to acting like the self entitled bitch she thinks she is. This girl needs a more solid reminder of her place in life and the world. Hell, if I was as presumptious as her that the world was my place to shat whereever I felt like then I hope somebody would put my punk ass in check.

I dial 411 and get the local police departments dispatch number. I say the following...

"This is NOT an emergency, but we noticed a girl take the handicap spot and stroll into Walgreens. If you have a unit in the area she's still there. I THINK she flipped off an old man who needed the spot on her way in." (I threw that in for good measure.....yes, I know I lied, but I explained later to my son that he should not do as Dad does, he should do as Dad says....he laughed, so we'll see).

The dispatcher says "Oh we hate people like this, we'll be there soon.".

I'm sad to say though she came out shortly thereafter. She saw the note, stomped her little feet and began shouting into her cell phone. My son and I were laughing so freaking hard. He wanted me to pull in behind her so she couldn't get out until the cop came but I told him theres setting someone straight then there's instigating a more serious situation. At this point it was probably best to leave it alone.

She circled the parking lot twice and finally saw us laughing at her, but surprisingly we just got a glare and not the finger.

The suck part was that as she pulled out the officer pulled in.

The end
 
darn it, i came in expecting that a semi (truck) had plowed into her car. 🙁

Looks like you are raising your son up to be just like you.

I'm not the typical parent. I don't shelter my son from the idiots of the world. I let him see them so he can learn from them and hopefully know what NOT to do. Sometimes I'm one of those idiots, but most times I'm not. No one is perfect.

I'm sure you'll be though, so no worries friend.

Wow, read into things much? I don't want your son robbing me in 10 years.
 
Thank you. Reading your post made me feel better about my life.
 
lol @ OP getting riled over 18 yr. old bitchiness.

lol more @ OP dragging son along for the ride.

lol most @ not going about your business and realizing the world's not a perfect place. I'm not going to waste my time raising other people's kids. I have better things to do. You apparently should, but don't.


Moving on...
