Arrogant, entitled bloke in the car park!

[Toast3]

I pulled into our local m&s simply food car park earlier, it's only a small store and there are only about 12 spaces. They were all full but I was in no rush so I waited. I finally saw a woman come back to her car, she unpacks her shopping, gets in and drives off so I pull forward to drive in (as you do) and there a man stood in the middle of the space, with his back to me, on his phone.
At first I thought he didn't realise so I edged a bit closer and gently tooted my horn. He turned round and said 'no, sorry' (wtf) I wound down my window and asked him to please move out of the way. He refused and said he was saving this space for his daughter who was 'on her way' ... there is only one way in and out of the car park and there was now a car behind me waiting for a space (not the daughter)..
I asked him again to please move as I was physically there and there was now a queue. He told me to fuck off! I kept calm (he was pretty aggressive) and I said 'well there's no way she can even get in the car park and there was no way I was moving and there was now a queue' (whilst desperately looking around for the blooming car park bloke that was nowhere to be seen)..
His phone then rang (his daughter I assume) who clearly couldn't leapfrog what was now 3 cars....he called me a few names and then very cockily said 'it's your lucky day' as he walked off....

WTAF is wrong with people??!!!

Does he really think that is reasonable behaviour - entitled arse!! Grrrhhh

[kittybiscuits]

Waaaaaaaannnkkkeeeerrrrr!

[DearMrDilkington]

Christ what a twat. Well done for standing your ground though.

[Owllady]

How tempted were you to run him over?

[TheHuffAndPuffALot]

What a cock!

[Manumission]

He sounds like a bright chap 🙄

[Toast3]

I felt pretty nervous as I wasn't sure how he was going to react..he was so arrogant But there was no way I was moving...arsewipe!

[PinkiePiesCupcakes]

It's an interesting legal point.

What would have happened if ypour have edged forward and made contact with him? (That's what I would have probably done tbf.)
Arguably he could have called the police but theuy would certainly want to know why he was stood, unmoving, in parking space.

Maxfielder, please do feel free to start your own scintillating thread if this one does nothing for you.

[Toast3]

Owllady: very tempted! Lol

[sonlypuppyfat]

It's your lucky day!! What a bellend

[Manumission]

Did you see the thread recently that revealed that this strange pedestrian space-saving in car parks is a growing trend OP?

[PatMullins]

Cock!

[pictish]

What a knobber.

[hmcAsWas]

I love how he got his comeuppance and had to back down. That must have been very satisfying

[WLF46]

It's really fucked up but then M&S does tend to attract a certain type of shopper! It's weird, the rudest customers seem to be in Lidl, the second-rudest seem to be in M&S, shops (I'd consider to be) at the opposite ends of the supermarket spectrum. That's what it's like round here anyway.

[PatMullins]

Oh and well done for not backing down, OP

I would have nudged him out of the way

[YelloDraw]

Random bloke was a dick, so what?

So what? Quite a shit encounter for the OP who was just trying to park normally. You don't expect to have that level of aggression and hassle do you.

[Manumission]

Ignore max. He/she/it is doing really poor quality bitch-plop trolling on a number of threads.

[Iwannabelikecommonpeople]

Sorry..but its quite funny !

[Iwannabelikecommonpeople]

but yes..complete dickhead all the same !!

[Toast3]

Manumission: No, I didn't see that...I just can't believe that anyone would think that's ok...it wouldn't cross my mind to ever do that...
I chuckled to myself at his pathetic attempt to save face and keep control, when he said 'it's your lucky day' bit I didn't comment (just smirked)
The guy in the car behind me saw it all and was equally as flummoxed...
I was watching out for him whilst I was in the store shopping as presumably that's why they wanted to park in their car park but no sign...the cheeky sod probably wasn't even gonna shop in there!

[Iwannabelikecommonpeople]

manu What's Bitch plop trolling ?

[JennyOnAPlate]

What a knob!! I probably would have lent in my horn and not let up til he moved although I would have locked my door first

[Toast3]

Jenny: lol My doors where locked. I was cacking myself but sometimes you just gotta go with it .... still fuming though!
