mrs_ladybirdI decided to leave work a couple minutes early today to try and get a seat on the train for the ride home. I did get a seat, however, the train that was supposed to leave 20 minutes before us left 3 minutes before us and it's an all-stops train (mine is normally express) so we got stuck behind that one all the way, took me almost twice as long as it normally does. So we finally get to my station, I hadn't minded the long ride especially since I was in no particular hurry and had a good book to read.
I get off the train and walk to my car. I was parked in the last spot in the row and someone had "invented" a spot beside me leaving me literally about 6" to get my door open and get in my car. Wasn't going to happen. So I stood there and waited for about 5 min figuring that maybe the owner was on the same train as I was. I gave up and got in the passenger side and climbed over (yes, I drive standard so this was quite the feat!). After much struggling I'm now sweating, so I unroll my window and proceed to back out of my spot. I'm just about to switch it to Drive and pull away when I notice this big tart wearing the J-Lo 70's glasses giving me a dirty look. Here's our conversation (no word of a lie):
Her: You stupid jerk, you nearly hit my car backing out!
I think about saying nothing, but this girl is the last straw...
Me: You shouldn't have parked so close to me, you left me no room to get in my car!
Her: Yeah, well you should be more careful next time!
Me: You should park in a real spot next time instead of on the end of the row...
(lame, I know, I wish I'd had a better comeback)
Her: Fuck You!
I rolled up my window and drove off. What a way to put someone in a bad mood!!
