To not want to be rushed out of a car park?

Travel around for work, so regularly use public car parks to then work at client sites (hotels, bars etc) always arrive early so never have any issue getting spaces in busy car parks.

Because i work in a public area at a client site, when i get back to my car like to grab my lunch quickly and make some phonecalls before heading home (todays journey is a 2 hour drive home)

Im fed up of people trying to find spaces in car parks seeing me going into my car, amd sitting behind me waiting for me to leave! I normally end up feeling rushed and just leave, but today i decided to sit and eat the steak bake i bought on the way to the car. Woman sits behind me for like 5 mins, then goes past slowly peering into my car giving me proper evils. Should add, engine not on, so not sitting with idling engine.

Aibu to take some time before leaving a parking space??

There's a Costa right in the foyer of our local terrible parking hospital. There is absolutely no wifi signal whatsoever in there, or the restaurant in the basement.
So working from the hospital cafe wouldn't be possible if he parked at ours.

Depending on what the job is, there’s potential issues around security, confidentiality etc if someone’s working on their laptop in a public place like a hospital cafe.

There’d be more privacy working in a car, even if it is less comfy.

Given my DH is head of global security for a finance company I think he will have any security issues covered!
