A mean man made me cry today!
I was at a really busy gas station trying to fill up. I turned around, waited, etc, finally made my way up to one of the 20 or so pumps they have there. I was really frustrated at this point. I was paying with a card so I was able to start pumping right away, when I finished I reached into my car to get my purse, needed to run in to buy a case of diet pepsi. I didn't notice a man in a big SUV waiting for me to finish, well he rolled down his window and screamed at me. I burst into tears and wailed "I just want to get some pop". I don't know what my problem is today but I'm losing my mind!

Any other day I would have snapped right back at him!

2. I have been so sensitive lately
borderline depressed and I just couldn't take some jerk yelling at me I guess.

6. He was the one with the problem....
not you. :hug:

Here's a story...Mom is in a nursing home. I got a phone call for a very serious problem, rushed to the home. I have a big truck, so had to squeeze in between 2 cars that were not parked perfectly. Had an emotional time at the home.

Finished the business at the home...walked out to the truck, got in, some lady walks across the parking lot, taps on my window, and says...nice fucking park job you jerk.

I stared at her in amazement....all I could think to say was......"Thanks lady. Maybe if you got laid once in awhile, you would not be compelled to stick your nose where it does not belong, and to have some empathy for what other people may be going through. This is a nursing home after all...."

Her response: What do you mean?

God, what a fucking dumbass she was.

I felt horrible for my rude and totally out of character comments, but all I kept thinking was....what if I has a loved one just die in there, and then this woman comes up and complains about my parking?
