When her neighbors refuse to address an ongoing parking issue, she creates a situation so that she has to park in their spot, and there’s nothing they can do about it. But it works!
An Entitled Teenager
She has neighbors with a teenage son. The son is alright, as a rule, but the issue is that when his friends visit him, they frequently park in her driveway. It’s pretty annoying, and she’s at the point of being annoyed about it.
A Fake Apology
Along with her husband, she decided to address the issue by kindly discussing it with the neighbors. However, it is only received with dismissive responses from the teenager’s friends. Lots of eye rolls and fake okays!’
A Bad Ending
One of the days brought a whole new occurrence when she returned home to find three of their friends’ cars taking up their parking space after a long 14-hour workday. It was instantly infuriating!
A Hopeful Victory
Frustrated by this repetition, she approached the neighbors a second time, determined to clarify the issue this time. She was very polite, and on this occasion, they politely indicated that they would involve the teenager’s parents. Result!
Happening Again
She felt happy and hopeful that things would be sorted. However, the very next day, upon returning home, she discovered the same parking issue happening again.
An Infuriating Imposition
This time, she was mad. She couldn’t keep the anger out of her voice either. She went next door and was met by one of the teenager’s parents. She tried to remain calm despite her burning anger.
Letting It Out
Calmly, she brought up the issue of the cars parked in their driveway and added a surprising detail – the teenager’s habit of throwing disposable vapes into their yard! She hadn’t wanted to mention it previously, but it seemed the right time to vent all of her grievances!
A Double Whammy
After they’d said they would address the parking issue, she asked that the vaping issue also be discussed fully. She advised that she was passionate about the environment and wanted this behavior nipped in the bud straight away.
An Angry Parent
The neighbor’s expression noticeably changed after hearing the new information, indicating a possible realization. The Dad seemed quite shocked that his son was becoming a nuisance and apologized on his behalf.
Potential End to the Problem
Shortly after the teenager’s friends left that day, she was hopeful that would be the end of it, though a part of her was expecting another violation. She was right; it only took two days!
A Recurring Problem
On that day, she had a business meeting to attend and was already running late. She spotted the teenager’s friend parked in her spot and decided to deal with it later that day.
A Plan Forms
Having alerted the neighbors on numerous occasions about the issue, she decided to kill two birds with one stone. She and her husband had recently had their back garden landscaped, and there was loads of waste in their shed. She hadn’t gotten around to clearing it yet!
Making the Call
She made a call to the waste company and ordered a large skip for her to dispose of her garden waste. Within two days, the skip had arrived, and she requested for it to be left in the spot where she’d usually park.
Clearing the Waste
That weekend, she and her husband cleared the waste and emptied it into the tip. She didn’t call the waste company straight away; she decided to hold out for a week or so. It was an unattractive vision in her front yard, but she hoped it might pay off.
A New Parking Spot
Over the course of the next few days, she parked her car in her neighbor’s spot. She waited for the door to knock! Then, one evening, there was a knock at the door, so she looked out and spotted her neighbor.
A Confrontation
The neighbor pointed at her car and said, “You can’t park there! That’s our spot!” She replied, “Well, I have a skip in my garden at the moment, so I assumed you’d agree that you owe me some parking time!”
Turning the Tables
The neighbor frowned and said, “I don’t know what you’re talking about! You need to get your car off my drive at once!” The woman smiled and picked up her cell phone. “Let me see…” she said.
Implicating Evidence
She scrolled through her phone and found the pictures she’d taken of their teenage son’s friend’s car parked in her spot. She referred to the dates at the top, of which there were at least twenty of them.
Blackmailing Tactics
She scrolled through endlessly until they looked away. She said, “I have tolerated this for weeks on end, so I’m pretty sure you can let me park in your driveway until my skip is gone!” They looked at her angrily. Eventually, they agreed.
One Final Word
She also added, “And if your spot isn’t free at any point, I’ll be sure to get these pictures to the police as proof of illegal parking.” With that, she closed the door on them. The truth was, the police would probably do nothing, but she enjoyed the sound of it, and they looked concerned.
A Week Later
She left the skip there for a week before having it removed, and for the duration of the week, she’d successfully parked at the neighbors with no trouble at all.
Four Weeks Later
Ever since the incident, she had had no issues at all with her parking spot, so it seemed that her plan worked. She always made sure she kept her eyes peeled, and if the car reappeared, she’d re-order the skip!
