Firstly I don't condone violence BUT you know how some days you wake up and you just know that if some punk pushes your buttons you're very likely gonna slap them.
Well it is one of those days today and I came about as close as I ever have to starting a girl on girl rumble.
Story goes like this:
Took my wee boy to the supermarket today to get some bits and bobs and while looking for a park close to the door the lady in front of me pulled into the last "expectant mothers & caregivers with small children" parking spaces.
All good...there are heaps of parks clolse so I pootle into one, park up and got my boy out the car and over to the footpath. As I do this I watched that woman 'who parked in the mothers parks' get out of her car, lock it and sauntered into Starbucks. No kids in tow or left in the car, nor any car seats to be seen...btw clearly she was not an expectant mother (skinny as a rake she was so even is she were expecting it were the kind of expecting that doesn't make crossing a road difficult)
Typical! I thought and started to feel my blood boil. :angry2:
Then as I was getting my boy into the trolley for a ride around the supermarket I watch as a woman with 3 littlies all under 5, struggle to get them all out of the car and safely across to where I was. I offered to wait with her littlest one in the trolley next to me, and appreciatively and breathlessly she thanked me and got the other two out of their carseats.
Anyway the more I thought about this the more it pissed me off. SO feeling in the "dying for a round with someone' mood - I decided that I wouldn't just let it be and approached the biarch sitting on her bony arrogant arse in the coffee shop.
I said Excuse me, I just have to say this...I think it is very rude of you to park in those parks and then went on to explain about the lady with the three kids. To this the woman rolled her eyes and snarkily said "well good on you" to which I replied...Hmmm figures! Your an arrogant bitch - bet you park in handicap spaces too' turned on my heals and walked off...of course she reacted by shouting some verbal abuse of her own after me...i calmly spun back around and told her to "talk to the hand" and walked off...cos if I stuck around I know things may well have escalated.
Later as I perused the bread isle a little old lady approached me and said "good on you dear for having her up about that - it's just not on when people do that", and she went on to explain that she has a handicapped daughter who is constantly put out by people like this.
So we had a little chat about how Rude, arrogant people like that woman get away with this behaviour and continue it. Musing about whether because they mostly go unchallenged they continue and others also will do it without thinking too much about it. She agreed, but of course being a little old lady said she would never confront someone about it.
WELL I say - let's all stand up and let these pricks know that this is unacceptable and that while by 'parking there' (and that womans instance taking her sweet time in the coffee shop) they 'get away' with it I at least I hope I pissed her off and embarrased her enough that she might think twice about doing it next time.
Probably not though! The snooty bitch, while clearly riled and somewhat taken aback that I called her on it, in front of a full cafeteria of people is clearly the kind of muppet who doesn't give a shit about anyone beyond her own perfectly made up face - btw all that makeup wasn't really helping matters anyway!
PS: I wouldn't hesitate to do this again either and no I don't think that I should've been more polite about it...Fark her and anyone else who does this...to me there is NO excuse...and I don't think "I'm going to be really quick" is a good enough either.

good on you. people parking in the wrong parks drives me nuts. mum and i were in salvation army the other day. there a certain type of car in the sole disabled park. a certain type of 10 year old-ish boy sitting in the front seat. i waited until the certain type of mother was near by, and then made a comment to mum about it.
we get a couple of regular customers who are in wheelchairs. i remember one time one of them held a sign up at the driver window which had assistance needed printed on it. my co worker made a snarky comment about it. she shut up pretty quick when i almost bit her head off. smart cow.

"talk to the hand" nice :done:
OMG Good on you!!!! :2thumbsup
It also makes my blood boil, when I see people park in the Mothers/Toddler car parks at the supermarket, get out of their cars with no kids!!! Pisses me right off, and I generally just give them my best "Arsehole!" look, but I havent got the balls to go up to them and say something.
Having three kids of my own, ages 3 to 9, its hard work trying to get them out of car and into car seats etc esp when its raining, so the close available car parks for Mothers/Toddlers is ideal.
Some people unfortunately don't give a shit, its just as bad as parking in disabled car parks.
:clap: well done #1!!!!!! Thats awesome!

I don't know what's more impressive - that you did this, or the awesome rant, or the image of jelly.......
There are some stickers called "Please don't park in this space" that explain why mobility parks exist and who they're for. The best thing is, they are 'stickers' - with permanent adhesive :devil2:.
Applied strategically to the windscreen right in the driver's forward view can be most affective ;)

ha haa GREAT!
A mate of mine - sick of cars parking in the bike parking had some stickers made up. They are flouro yellow with bold black print and permanent adhesive and they say "are you a just a fuckwit or do you always park like this?!"
He said he has only been soo inclined to use it once and plastered it on their drivers door window :yes: Good effing job I say!

i'm a solo dad with a 2 year old and a 4 year old. just getting them both safely out of the car and out onto the footpath can be pretty scary.
non-parents that use the parents parks need a fucking bullet.

While I empathise with you (and good for you, No.1 for rarking up the biartch), personally, I think these new-fandangled "parks for parents with kids, prams, tantrums, disorganised rabble, etc." are bollocks.
Disabled parks? :2thumbsup (When not being used by 'disabled' peoples who seem perfectly able yet have an orange "Park wherever the fark I like" card).
Special parent parks? :crazy: :spudwhat:
We managed for years with three chitlins, one of whom is autistic, and never felt the need to park right next to the doors. Maybe we never saw parenthood as some kinda disablement. ANd making the little buggers walk a few hundred extra metres helped to burn off some of the mischieviousness.
I don't really get it... :confused:

Appreciate what yer saying Vifferman however from my perspective it's a safety aspect.
For instance with my boy - who has no peripheral vision and not so great upfront vision either isn't always cogniscent of cars approaching.
Kids can move like lightening and while I only have one to look out for it can be quite tricky getting him out of the car and safely across the road with cars everywhere...and some stupid people travel quite quickly in these carparks too!
I can imagine the stress for parents of juggling a baby capsule and two littlies under five safely in these areas.

I would have started by shoving my mobile in her face and taking a photo. When she indignantly asks wtf then launch into her and finish by telling her the photo is for when you report her behaviour through the Police website. Of course the cops won't give a shit about parking but she'll crap herself at the thought of the Police getting involved.

hahahaa - I do have her number plate and could give a pretty vivid description....
BUT I won't - cos all in all deep deep down somewhere I like to think I'm kinda a lady...
But lets just say that this was in Johnsonville at the Woolworths and she was driving a blue station wagon with car seats that had blue paw prints on them.
So if you know her...give her that slap I wish I had given her earlier :shutup:

Having been in a wheelchair, I do get it. I admit that the requirements for a disability card are more generous than is optimal, but as long as a car displays a current - I've seen some lowlife's using old out of date ones - I leave them alone.

Nice one.
However that being said i know now that you just ring a towing company.
I had this issue on my last apartment. Nothing like having a beer and watch some prick dance in front of the towwy cos he was in the wrong park.
He was Chinese too, it made it that much more funnier for me (but the misses had to translate the curse words for me).

Fairy Nuff.
As far as the "does that person really qualify for an speshul orange card thing" goes - my father-in-law (who died a couple of weeks back) had very severe emphysema, and at times couldn't walk more'n about 20m, with a trundler for support. However, it amuses/bemuses me at shopping malls when supposedly disabled people park near the door, then spend a few hours walking around the mall, mebbe doing a few km in their travels. The supermarket I get: they've got a trundler to lean on for support. Parking near a shop/office that they go into, then park themselves, it makes sense. But I guess that for some people, 'disability' is a convenience or state of mind, IMHO.
I'll be there soon enough: already mentally disabled, and my body's working on fucking itself up. Bring on the Special Orange Card! Woohoo, and all that! Nah - fuckit! When I'm decrepit, I'll eschew the special parks and just park my (outriggered) bike on the footpath. :2thumbsup

Never used it actually, I just went straight around to the station and asked if they had anyone who could pop around and speak to the driver. Sometimes they did and sometimes they took all the details for followup. But I never got the impression they weren't really interested, they always came across as pro-active. I know they get a lot of complaints and I applauded the media when they'd do a feature and get these people on TV!

Always interesting .. .what a read. I agree with you and your actions ... and am always annoyed when people abuse the parks reserved for others.
I have a disability card .. I don't abuse it, but use it when I need it ... I look perfectly able and all that .. but would swap my disease for someone elses carpark on the other side of the lot any bloody day!
My most common expression to others using parks without showing the card is "oh don't forget to put your card down" and I leave it at that, with mine in the window. Its normally enough to get the point across.

You go, girl!
That type of behaviour pisses me off no end!
As part of my job, I get to transport kids with varying degrees of disabilities. Once at the the hospital hydrotherapy pool, I had parked in the "Therapy Patients only" parking, (displaying our disability card in the window) only to be ticketed because I was not in a "Disabled Park"
On one other occasion, I confronted a rather large gent as he parked in a disabled park. He waved his artificial leg at me asking if it was disability enough for me. I told him "Not without the parking permit to go with it, Sir".
We need to stand up and confront these morons!

Have the same thing happen at times with the disabled parks. I'm a prick and at times just park my car behind theirs and if they return I say I'm waiting for a tow truck. Been abused only once and I removed an arm from my wheelchair and commented on how good a weapon it would be and I'd been wanting to see how much damage I could do with it for some time. The punk backed off pretty quickly but by that time a few other bods had come over to give a hand/fist if required. I'm dangerous if Im in a pissed off mood because the pain level is too high. Too many selfish fuckers in this world caused by polictical correctness and too many dumb fucks to stop it from getting worse. I will end up bashing someone in the future if they start with the "park rage" because of being told the truth which I allways do politlely at first. Some people need to learn that when you come as close to death as I have and live with pain all your life, that I'm no longer worried about being hurt as long as I make the opposition very hurt in the process. :devil2::ar15::angry2:

No, I have no idea what you are talking about :innocent:
Seriously though, people like your latte sipper today are seemingly on the increase.
I see some comment regarding the fact that kiddie parks are a new thing, we did not have them in the olden days. No we didn't, but I really wished we had. I have had the 3 kids under 5 experience, would have been great to have been so close to the shops. As it was I think I traumatised my eldest child, she could not take her hand off the car because "she was not safe" otherwise...LOL. She still reminds me about it now.
We dont have these new fangled parent parks where we live, but we sure do have disabled parking places. I do not hesitate to call someone out if I see them parked in a disabled park without the card displayed. I even complained to our local council (we do have a parking warden) to get some action out side our post office.
I received an irate call one day at work from a woman who could not use a disabled park due to one of our work utes taking the space! I apologised and promised action. It was a rep (he said he did not see the sign on the pillar) this a private car park, no yellow wheelchair painted in the park. He was mortified! Went to the florist, bought some flowers, found the lady in question - having her hair done at the salon in the plaza. Apologised in person and gave her the flowers.
Good on you for speaking out #1! Personally I would have just given her the bash :o

I took the keys out and took them into the supermarket owner, handed them to him and told him where the vehicle was parked :2guns:
Oh yes, one of my other tricks ... If I see someone ablebodied without card pull up and head for the supermarket door, I rush up to them and say ..

Though what really pushed my buttons with this skinny snooty cow was that she knew she was doing the wrong thing because I watched her get out of her car, look around as if to say...am I being watched...which of course I was...we made eye contact...she locked her car and continued on even while I was shaking my head at her and glaring. Then when I walked past the starbucks she was glaring back at me again and we both eyes locked stared at each other - her look to me was like she considered I had done something wrong...that on top of that poor woman I helped out really pushed me over the edge! :argue: Oh and chronic tootache probably had a little to do with it too!

Oh yes, one of my other tricks ... If I see someone ablebodied without card pull up and head for the supermarket door, I rush up to them and say ..
".. I thought I'd tell you that you might like to move your car because they've been towing away ones without mobility stickers all week ... "

Similar situation at Palmerston hospital,when your having radiation you are given a card with specific instructions to use carpark 2 (I think),you have to display the card on your dash to advise security your getting treatment.The idea is not far to walk to the rear entrance,saw more than one car being towed,and nearly had ours towed as the damn card had slidden off the dash and onto the centre consule.Saw a lady giving an uncarded vehicle their pedigree one day,she really gave the driver full bore for trying to use a closer park.

Just wondering, on here (http://www.landtransport.govt.nz/roadcode/about-driving/parking-signs.html) they mention 'All other parking signs apply between 8 am and 6 pm', but 'Parking for people with disabilities' is another section beneath that. So disability parks are fair game after 6pm?

Here's a handy tip....carry a little tube of superglue in your purse/bag just for occasions such as these. Squirt glue into both drivers and passengers door locks. As for cars with remote lock/unlock, pull out your swiss army knife and scratch " MENTALLY DISABLED" into the paint on the drivers door!
Works a treat, Ive seen it done and Ive seen the cars owner return to find it,
He actually kicked in the door and left with a hell of a squeal of tyres hehehe!
Other option for politically correct people, call a tow truck and get the bloody thing removed, at the biartch's expense.

The disability parking is actually 'purchased' by the disabled people when they pay for their cards. My mother has such a card because she is in a wheelchair, but my sister, who is her caregiver, won't even use the disability park if mum isn't getting out of the car.
The best option, it seems to me, is to get arrogant tossers who park there illegally, towed away.

If you see a nice car with a mobility card in a disabled spot, please don't jump to conclusions. It could be someone like Maxine McKay (who is dying from a rare form of arthritis).
In a 2005 Herald article she talked about the abuse she routinely receives from strangers because she drives a porsche and doesn't look disabled.

This is an interesting situation....
I'm not sure I fully agree with you...but I'm Libran so regularly play both sides of the fence on matters just cos I can...and I'm a shit stirrer..so there! :bleh:
Hang with me here...my thinking is this.
The kiddie parks are there to ensure that parents out with their littlies can travel safely to and from their cars. In your instance there were two kiddies and two adults...so I don't see that there really was a great need for you to use the park. Take for instance the poor mother with the three littlies that I helped that day due to the 'SKINNY LATTE DRINKING BIARCH'.
Though I do see your side I also feel for her and in your case she would again have been stuck with only two hands trying to get three kids safely to the door of the supermarket. This is why I don't use these parks myself...two hands and only one kid.
Just a thought...not getting at you in the least...BUT YES YOU SHOULD definitely have chased him for the beers :lol:

While I empathise with you (and good for you, No.1 for rarking up the biartch), personally, I think these new-fandangled "parks for parents with kids, prams, tantrums, disorganised rabble, etc." are bollocks.
We managed for years with three chitlins, one of whom is autistic, and never felt the need to park right next to the doors. Maybe we never saw parenthood as some kinda disablement. ANd making the little buggers walk a few hundred extra metres helped to burn off some of the mischieviousness.
I don't really get it... :confused:
+1. What is so hard about walking with the kids the distance required? And if they're too young to walk, there's something called a pram. I agree with the need for disabled car parks, but special parks for able bodied parents is just complete bullshit. Parenting doesn't take away your ability to walk!
I am sick of people with kids thinking that being parents somehow makes them special and entitled to things that the rest of us don't have. Parents have the responsibility of teaching their kids to walk through parking lots safely, they don't need a special parking space.

They are an irrelevant item of annoyance when looking in your rear view mirror, bet they create a good little blindspot too in some circumstances. Emergency services thoroughly check wrecks, so no littlies get left in wreckage. Apparently it happened in the states and this idea was "born" so to speak.

As an unknowing (some may say ignorant) mere male, could some with a higher understanding of all things relating to children, explain the purpose of those little signs put in the back windows of cars (usually wagons or peoplemovers). You know the ones..."Baby on Board".
Is it so.
a. we dont intentionally run into them.
b. we treat them any more differently than any other vehicle on the road.
c. other.
If "other", please explain... :confused:
c. It's to warn you that the driver is probably being screamed at or nagged at so to steer clear of that vehicle as they are likely to swerve or stop suddenly as the driver changes Wiggles CDs or changes a nappy.:crazy:
When my kids were small we used harnesses. You could lead 3 or 4 around safely. Also kept them under control inside. Never see them used these days.
My mum used one on me because of the following quote by miss Number one. She actually used to tie me up outside too to parking-meters!!:crybaby:
Yeah my parents used one on me...mum reckons I was too friendly and would run off and make friends with strangers the minute her back was turned....:lol:
Oh fuck!! So did I!!! No wonder we are such good friends!!:wari: I had a "special friend" in 3 or 4 of the shops my mum used to regularly shop at. One used to take me to the smoko room and feed me chocolate biscuits and have tea with me, another used to take me up and down for ages in the elevator (you know the old ones with the funny doors that you had to close, they had a person who operated that!) and another that used to rig the mechanical horse outside for me to ride. Those were the days eh!

not allowed to use those harnesses because apparently its child abuse ... my mother told me stories of old ladies having a go at her for wlaking me round town like i was a dog ... how close to the truth they were ;)
also i couldnt find any to buy in new zealand, so i got the mother-in-law to send one over from Japan ... yet to have a child hit by anything harder than a brother/sister :cheer:
How are they illegal? Baby Factory sell em, same with Farmers, Baby Star and The Warehouse LOL
I just bought one for my son as he learnt to walk at 9mths and is a pain at taking off.....
Good on you Number One, but next time, write down her rego and pop into the managers office, they will happily get a towie out to remove the offending car.
Towies tend to turn up pretty quick, and it works even better if you park across the back of her, get out and lock your car before you head inside.
That way she cant leave, and the towie is guaranteed to get some money out of her so you guarantee she will have to pay!

However that being said i know now that you just ring a towing company.
I had this issue on my last apartment. Nothing like having a beer and watch some prick dance in front of the towwy cos he was in the wrong park.
He was Chinese too, it made it that much more funnier for me (but the misses had to translate the curse words for me).

Good on you! :niceone: Boils my piss when people do that. The spaces are there for a reason afterall.
My local supermarket has a collection of disabled and parent & child spaces by the door and they're always full of non diabled cars and single folk because they can't be bothered walking the extra 20m from the 'normal' car park spaces :tugger:

WELL I say - let's all stand up and let these pricks know that this is unacceptable and that while by 'parking there' (and that womans instance taking her sweet time in the coffee shop) they 'get away' with it I at least I hope I pissed her off and embarrassed her enough that she might think twice about doing it next time.
:argh:
it not just that , its everything,,, the whole way of thinkings wrong . ( all about me not all about the other person
( this is very hard to put into words in such a small space of time )
Some cultures praise the individual, as in look after oneself first , others look out for the other person first , ( doesn't make em any more intelligent , they just do things in a different way )
In the shop the other day , with youngest , I walked towards the door sales lady came out from behind the counter opened the door to let us out ( could have done it myself easy enough ) then said "thank you for shopping here" ( only bought a battery for my micrometer)
I reckon if we all watch out for the small things ( even what is said in jest , Haar haar your poof u ride a $%&&'' etc , note: Harley and Suzukis are exempt , as I am sure no one could want one of those ) and socially exclude the Tards such as the one parking in the wrong car park etc ( and those who make others feel "put upon" )
all would be a lovely place to live ,,, ( does Happen !!!)
Stephen
PS , Couldn't the supermarket have fined the cow , as she was clearly in Star-bucks, and clearly didn't have children , ( the pack and save in CH-CH would have towed that car as quick as look at ya !)
Kama would be kicking some scrawny arse that day !

Disabled spaces are one thing but why should I have to walk a further 20m just because someone else has bred? Does dropping a sproglet affect your mobility? No wonder kids are obese. It's not even like most of the the little darlings get the opportunity to walk to school anymore.

The fact is that the parent/child spaces are wider, making it easier to open the doors and get kids in and out without bashing the adjacent cars. Have you ever seen a mum try and man-handle a kid into a pushchair in the gap between two cars? You clearly don't know anyone with young kids, do you?
If you want to be inconsiderate, then go for it. You certainly won't be the first.
And no, I'm not a parent either, but I have the common courtesy to consider others and move my lazy ass the extra 20m ;)

I pulled into Tawa Woolworths carpark last night. Couldn't believe my eyes. There is a ped crossing straight ahead as you come out of the door. The crossing goes over the road and between the cars so you can push your trolley to the second row of parks without having to squeeze through between the gaps.
Some prick decided that he would park his builders ute on the crossing to save himself having to walk the extra 10mtr.
Because of this, some other wanker thought they would do the same and park on the crossing behind the ute. This meant that anyone parked on the second row had to do a 30mtr loop as the gaps aren't big enough to get a trolley through.
Also. Everytime I pull into the BP in Tawa, you can gaurentee that someone has parked on top of the no parking areas directly outside the door to save themselves 5mtrs walk.

Take pushchair out car. Put it behind car. Take kid out kiddie car seat. Put in pushchair. Walk with pushchair to shops. Easy peezy. Come to think of it, they don't need the pushchair. The shopping trolleys have little brat slots in them don't they?
If you want to be inconsiderate, then go for it. You certainly won't be the first.
By your reasoning we should have "shit driver or fat bastard parking" ?

When my two were littlies they had not long come out with those Parents with kids parks at the supermarket. First time I ever used one (legally of course) I had only just stepped my first foot out of the car and some feminist nazi biarch came striding over to me and started to swear loudly at me for parking there. I didn't utter a word to her but pointed to the back seat where my two under threes were in their car seats. I doubt she was expecting to see Dad out shopping with the kids on a weekday. I calmly pointed out that my Miss 2 and a half had heard EVERY foul name she had just called me and I did not appreciate her jumping to conclusions and abusing me.
She sheepishly apologised and slunk off.
