Ask them to paint the line where that crack is in the parking lot next to your car

interesting.... due to my car issues, I'm no longer parking up the front, parking at the side, in case I have to jump start

But I noticed, that there is a car already parked in "my" space when I get there, then it looks like that car SWAPS with another car, both cars are the same, past few days.

So someone is getting up "EXTRA" early or parking in the space to save it for someone, God that's just so pathetic.

I haven't noticed who yet. The building we share is with a couple of other companies so not necessarily my own

And BMW drivers have a reputation of being royal pricks and "SELFISH", I would say that ain't correct !

They are getting up at 3am just to rush and park in that wide spot and have made a deal with another geek to take over not to let anyone else in there

Our daily parking position at our condo downtown. Only mm's to spare.

I haven't hit a fender or mirror yet but as you can see, I've cut the tire into that pillar on a few occasions.

Your residential parking situation is very similar to mine. I'm definitely hugging the pillar to avoid my neighbor's pick up truck's large door, lol.

He's a cool guy though, and we've joked about this parking topic on a few occasions. We've agreed to be extremely cautious around our respective cars.

OP, curious if it has occurred to you yet, that the other individual(s) involved in this parking drama see you, just as you see them? Just food for thought. At the end of the day, it's just a parking spot. So many other things in life to occupy brain space with.

Back in the days when I went to the office there was a "column" in the rows on each floor of the garage that had support columns on each side. 4 per floor. Because the support columns were there its a solid 3 feet line to line, makes it pretty hard to get a door ding.

It was always a race of nice cars to get there early enough to get one of those.

No I don't think so, I was getting to work, in time for my shift. Car park is empty and I park wherever there is a space, from the 2nd day, I noticed no-one parking in said space so I parked there.

There's a difference between that, I.e. getting to work on time, albeit 10-15mins early, than getting there and saving the space for your mate, spouse or @best@ friend, in order to stop another person parking there and then playing tag to swap your car over.

That's a whole different level of passive aggressive, first my car is vandalized and now there making sure I DONT get that parking space regardless.

Do you think my behavior by any sane person can be seen as similar ?

Any person whose mentality over a parking space includes them vandalizing a car is acceptable, needs professional help, and it's a CRIME, it is termed as Mischief by the police, I know I checked, it's irrelevant that it's coffee, paint or piss.

I didn't pay 50 grand for a car for that level of stupid, for sure it's just a parking space, but I have to come into a work space not knowing WHAT the fuq someone is going to do to my car, or perhaps me, do YOU think that's acceptable.

With that level of mentality how the hell do I know if one day someone is going to come after me, waylay me, slash my tires, just to prove a point.

Sorry dude but don't blame the victim here. UNLESS there is a sign saying DO NOT PARK, or CEO only, or DISABLED ONLY, or Redneck Retards only. I can park were I like.

Not sure how tongue and cheek your reply is, but I ain't in a good mental place right now with a fuqing dying BMW every other day and getting harassed at my place of work. Maybe a bit too strong or OT from my side, but there you go, no logic today, sorry !

I had similar LOL, at my last place, had a PREMO space, one end was walled off and the other side a column perfect, I used to get in at 6am, no one got that space.

Once or twice someone got it but it was all fair game, never cried when someone took it, just parked somewhere else.

Parking is important and it's easy for people who rarely use parking lots to jump to conclusions but if they were caught up in a similar situation and found their car had things thrown over it or been tampered with then they'd change their tune.

I don't really have anything useful to add to this particular thread but I will say something I despise.... fat lazy fuckers that swing their doors wide open without even trying to gently open their door as to not ding the car next to them. That is all, carry on.
