That’s My Parking Spot Dear Sir


This morning someone stole my parking spot. Yes MY parking spot. I've seen him in the parking lot before. Usually he parks beside me or around me, why today did he take my spot? Clearly his BMW is more important than my Mazda. NOT OK!

Still, I didn't let this crude act put me in a bad mood. An older man was walking in the building behind me and I opened the door and let him in ahead of me. He was so thankful and happy over this gesture. He said, “don’t take this the wrong way but what a gentleman”. I didn't take it the wrong way, we both laughed (hahaha). As we do, we got on the (dreaded) elevator together all by our lonesomes and he said, “there are two types of chivalry in the world, men to women and young to old, thank you very much”. As he was getting off he said, “I hope you have a great day”.

It feels good to please people, or do something nice for someone. I mean he wasn't that old and all I did was hold the door open for him, but he was so thankful. He brightened my day.
