An entitled, deranged old man, blocks traffic by parking in a fire zone, and he absolutely

loses his mind when he gets a ticket, despite being warned multiple times that this is

exactly what was going to happen.

It's a normal day and I'm gathering shopping carts in a parking lot.

At our store, the area directly in front of the store is designated as a fire zone.

There is yellow markings painted on the road's surface, denoting where the zone is, coupled

with signs all along our storefront, saying that it's a fire zone, and that there is no

parking or even stopping within it, and it's well away from any legitimate parking spots.

Despite the markings, though, and the signs, people still like to park there, usually just

to grab a few things, as they say.

Sometimes one person will park there and their partner will hop out to go shopping.

Every time I'm out there grabbing shopping carts, I always walk over and tell them, hey,

look, this is a fire zone.

If by-law swings by, you could get fined or even towed.

Most people look at me like they expect me to pull a tow truck out of my back pocket

and nail them right then and there.

I usually have a follow-up with them, saying, I'm just letting you know, in case you didn't

know.

If you want to park there, I'm not going to stop you, but it's your own follow-up if

by-law shows up.

This is usually enough for most people to thank me for my diligence, park there anyway,

and then go inside.
