To think that owning an expensive new car does not entitle you to be a twat?

One of the miserable bstards in the accounts dept came and harangued my friend in her office this morning because he thought she'd made a microscopic scratch on the drivers door of his new BMW with her car door in the company car park. She put up with it for a while, they went to check and she showed him that if she had hit the car with her door the mark would have been in a different place. Security guard also joined in and confirmed that it couldn't have been her car. Which seemed to rile said bstard even more. He followed her back to her office telling her that is has to be her because it was alright earlier and he's parked it in an otherwise empty hotel car park the night before. Her partner is in hospital for an op as I type this and she's feeling very stressed about it. So eventually she burst into tears and shouted at him. He went to see her line manager to complain .

So should I see if I can persuade one of the dumper trucks currently working on site to come and see if they can make a real mark on his car door?

Or would that be unreasonable?

for your friend. Just what she doesn't need. I would mention your side of things to her line manager also.

Hmm, I suppose you've already committed theft once you've taken the black cap off. It's fraught with danger this business of dealing with arse-neighbours isn't it?!

In for a penny, you may as well just bulldoze their house with lapins tank. You could always use 'everyone knows that women can't park' as your defence.

MargeSimpsonMyAlterEgo · 12/03/2008 14:20

oooh no Duchess, not theft. Stealing whole cars isn't theft, it's just "taking without consent". Just a caution, mate.

OrmIrian · 12/03/2008 14:22

twoc.

I love that word.

Excellent. In that case, I'm just off to do the school run in a nicer car than mine that I've merely taken without consent.

Missing the point really sorry OP but YANBU he is a total arse. I would go tell her line manager your side!

I remember a similar incident in my former office.

The best of it was that the bloke making all the fuss didn't actually have an expensive new car - it was about 3 years old.

Def go and tell line manager about Mr Good-job-my-car-is-posh-because-my-penis-is-obviously-a-maggot

I scratched someone's car at christmas, and I left a note with my tel no. The woman rang up that evening and shouted at me. She never followed it up.

This partic car was covered in bumper stickers and pennants, fgs. The car was held together by them.

Bouncingturtle · 12/03/2008 14:49

I like you sheik, you're my kind of woman
Oh and OrmIriam, should complain to the donkey raping sh!t eater's manager for being a cockless twunt.
Hope your friend's ok!

Apparently he apologised to her. He said that 'under the circumstances' he shouldn't have got so upset Under the circumstances??
