Can't you just unload around me?

So this happened earlier today and was too perfect to not share with you guys.

I work in construction as the foreman for a new house builds.

The location is kind of strange.

The house is 250 feet up a hill via a footpath only. All of our materials have to

come up that footpath by hand. It's a pain in the butt to manually carry

quite literally an entire house up this hill.

One of our saving graces is having the two parking spots on the street at the bottom of

this hill marked with official no parking signs.

Unfortunately, there is an elementary school about half a block away and the parents of children seem to regularly at least twice a day think it's okay to park in our spots.

Now I consider myself a reasonable person so if someone is parked in the spots and we don't have a delivery or need to park a truck, I'll let it go.

But if we need the spots and there's someone parked there, I will ask them to move nicely and most of the time they do so immediately.

Until today.

I get a phone call from the lumber delivery truck that is en route to our location.

He says he'll be there in about two or three minutes.

I let him know that I'll meet him at the street

and make sure he has space to park.

He's carrying all of the material

to frame the roof of our house,

which is a lot of really big lumber and will take easily an hour to bring up the hill.

So naturally I didn't want him parked in the middle of the street with his Hazaz on for an hour

when we have a perfectly good parking spot for him.
