I'm so mad

I was having a great morning.  I was actually well rested and happy this morning.  Then one of my employees called to say "Someone just backed into your car in the lot."  

I took off outside and, sure enough, in our PRIVATE parking lot (with a BIG sign in the lot that states "PRIVATE PARKING") some woman had backed her big silver SUV into my maroon SUV.  Seriously?  How do you not see a big maroon SUV?  Plus, she was trespassing.  AND she tried to leave.  If B hadn't been out there and stopped her, she would have taken off.

THEN she gave me a sob story about how she was in court and how her husband is going to beat her when he finds out.  My response?  "If I were you I wouldn't go home to a husband who beats me and I also wouldn't park in a private parking lot." MH found that hilarious when I told him.

The damage is probably minimal.  It's scratched pretty bad so I assume we'll have to have it buffed out and repainted (so around $300 or so).  I took her insurance information and my insurance agent is already on the phone with her's.   

Re: I'm so mad

  • That sucks on all accounts.  At least she has insurance.  If anything, she may decide to pay it outright than have it go against her insurance.

  • Ugh.. that really does suck!  I hope you can figure something out (and she was just blowing smoke that her husband would beat her! Tongue Tied)
  • I'm mostly angry because it's a private lot.  Like I told my secretaries, if one of them had done it, I wouldn't have been as angry because they are supposed to be in the lot.

    This is the third time a trespasser has hit my car.  The first time, they took off one of my side view mirrors (and didn't stop).  The second time they dented in a door (and didn't stop). 

  • At least you caught them before they could leave and they had insurance.  I hate parking lots because no matter how careful you are others are not.

  • A totally agree about parking lots - I hate them.  BUT you would think that in my work lot, where everyone is assigned a space and where no one but office staff is supposed to park, that my car would be safe.  Sigh.
  • Ugh that sucks!!!!
