Life Rules: Don’t Be THAT Person In A Parking Lot

Just a quick public service announcement about parking spaces today, okay?

After you leave the grocery store, don’t be that person who throws their groceries in the trunk, jumps in the driver’s seat, and then sits there with their reverse lights on while doing God knows what, oblivious to the car which has pulled alongside you, has their blinker on, and is holding up traffic, waiting patiently for you to move on.

If you can see a person waiting for a parking space, leave. Do not touch your phone and do not brush your hair, put on a fresh coat of lip gloss, or unclump your mascara. You’re not a supermodel, and the car isn’t your beauty salon. 

Just drive off and relinquish the parking space - especially if you are in the Trader Joe’s parking lot, which we all know is a mother f*cking horror show, half the size it should be, and full people who all just want to get out of there alive and are praying that someday all races and religions will live in peace and Trader Joe’s will build a store with sufficient parking.
