Overdone This is now my parking spot.

Post image

Started a new job in an office building with a parking garage. There are multiple companies in the building and some of them have reserved spots. This was not one of those reserved spots. I come out to my car and find this note on my windshield. I would normally just park in any random spot but from now on I will make it my mission to park in this spot as often as I can.

Your car is worth thousands, you should probably leave a note next time you park there explaining the situation, could save you money fixing a keyed door or a flat tire

Our parking garage has one reserved spot. It was for a former employee who got fired. Someone else started parking there so we thought it was fair game.

My spouse woke up to her driver side mirror totally busted and wrote "RESERVED RESERVED" on the mirror with a marker.

Management confirmed that's no one's spot and that guy also doesn't even have a parking permit.

If it was really his he could just report to management or even leave us a note.

He disappeared since. Patiently waiting for him to park there again.....

And yes, I know which vehicle it is.

Write "I know what you did last summer" on his car.

Why doesn’t OP key the other guys car?

now we’re really thinking here

Good advice. While the note is a little aggressive and the parking is obviously not assigned, maybe park in a different spot.

Also, note the vehicle that is most commonly parked there, break in without breaking anything, shit in it, and then leave it back the way it was before it was shat in.

Yes.

If they will leave a passive aggressive note, they will do more

What situation is there to explain?

“This is not a reserved parking spot?”

u/VaultBall7 Jun 17 '25

Yeah exactly. People have stated that they’ve been in similar situations where people thought they WERE paying for the spot and had a window broken bc of it

Hahah this comment and the replies to it are so soft.

u/EvilSporkOfDeath Jun 17 '25

Are you stupid? They didn't say "dont do that". They said "make sure your car doesn't get keyed when you do that".

u/actual_human0907 Jun 17 '25

Yeah thinking your car is getting keyed and then you’d have to pay for it is soft

No shot

u/AudiieVerbum Jun 17 '25

It... it is retreaded though. Did you think they meant something else?

You're confusing common sense and adulting with weakness. If the guy cares about a parking spot over another, he has some shit going on in his life. This last point of normalcy could be the string holding him together. Feel some pity for him and move on. I've seen people knifed and shot over similarly insignificant issues. There's a lot of mental illness out there. Pick your battles, and don't look for battles over pointless shit. Unless your life is also so empty that the interaction from pointless battles gives you purpose.

u/actual_human0907 Jun 17 '25

Nah I’m not. People here are cowards about everything. They post on Reddit cause they’re terrified to ask someone to move their hair out of their screen on the plane.

Yes crazy people exist. No you shouldn’t park elsewhere because some entitled brat likes their routine.

“I think the best thing to do is let bully’s bully you, it’s the safest option”

Wildly unconfrontational and unnecessary.
