Dog eat dog world.
Dec. 20th, 2006 08:45 amYesterday, a colleague of mine (let's call him Sammy) came to work a bit later than usual. Sammy stood in line to enter the multi-story parking garage next to our working place. The car ahead of him belonged to a 'guest' - someone who doesn't work here, and doesn't know the place well. The guest drove slowly, looking for a place to park. Sammy knew better - there was no free parking at least as high as floor 7. As the guest was driving slowly up the tower, Sammy overtook his car and climbed quickly up to higher levels. Lucky for him, there was a free spot on floor 6. Sammy parked his car, and was about to leave, when the guest stopped his car next to him. Turns out the guy was boiling mad. He yelled at Sammy that he stole his parking space and demanded that he left the spot at once. At first, Sammy thought that he was just blowing his top, but then he saw that the dude was serious. The guest came out of the car and was about to hit Sammy in the face. Guess what Sammy did? Well, probably the smartest thing. He moved his car. Just a side-note : Sammy is by no means a wimp, or someone who doesn't know how to use his fists.
