More of a vent really but a serious what the actual fk to this persons attitude!
I can't post a street view as im on mobile but if you look for albany view, stainland road, hx49aj. You'll see some flats inbetween a fish and chip shop and a nisa local.
Well this woman (40's) parked up so that I could not park infront nor behind her and she even saw I wanted to park up as I live there! (Really pisses me off there's not a designated flat parking out front) there's even a side street she could have parked on right out side the chippy!
So I tried to reverse in behind her (that's how I know I couldn't fit) and got my fiance to get me as close as possible - I wasn't getting in. So I sent her in to politely ask the woman to move her car up a bit.
Well the woman responded in such a way that disgusts me - not only did she basically say fk off without swearing but then pushed my fiance out of the way! Wish I'd have seen because I would have gone livid! She did not care that we lived there and said we should have waited in the middle of the road for her to get her order. Who actually says something like that!? Thick bh.
So after storming off she did move her car and I now regret not confronting her but equally she would probably try harassment or some bks.
Anyway I could understand if it was some chav in a clapped out car but it was a 307cc on a newish plate by a respectable looking woman!
Speechless!
Anyone else had a bad experience like this? Take my mind of her.

a chav in a clapped out old car would have moved it. I don't know when a 307cc became respectable

Sadly you have just described the attitude of a lot of people these days.

Inflated senses of entitlement, inability to take responsibility for one's actions, apportioning blame anywhere but themselves, and an aggressive belief that one's journey or task is immeasurably more important than anyone else's, and how dare someone critise or say otherwise. All coupled with increasing levels of laziness in all forms.

Sums it up very well. No one gives us a toss about anyone else anymore. It is all me, me, me.

307cc, one of the select choice of vehicles owned by a woman no doubt of a certain age, trying to look younger than she is no doubt and pissed off with the world because she's becoming a haggard old wench. There's a lot of these everywhere you go, mostly with an attitude problem hehe

Rose tinted glasses about the past? As far as I am aware it has always been like this, just that more people hear of these instances now because internet.
