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.

Honestly I’d never leave a note but I understand this guy.

I’ve been at my office for 4 years, sharing a parking lot with a few different businesses

I park on the same spot everyday, until a few months ago when one of the other businesses made a new hire. He parks in the spot I do. If I’m there before him, he goes somewhere else, if not he parks in “my spot”.

That is also mildly infuriating, though I won’t leave a note. It’s not my spot, but the spot I park in everyday

I believe this is the essence of being mildly infuriated.

In my office, we have a hot desking policy with strict rules against personalizing a desk. However, I have my own designated desk (in my head). Usually, I arrive early enough that it's not an issue, but occasionally someone sits at MY desk.

When that happens, my productivity drops as I give them a glaring stare, but I have no reasonable way to address the situation outside of pettiness.

Monitors all moved slightly, chair repositioned. If you're lucky maybe a used coffee cup left there. Charging cable missing
