Just a short one, I promise...
[rant]So my wife and I park at Sam's Club to pick up some 55 gal drums of BBQ Sauce (not really, but you laughed) and I see a car parking in one of those new "sideways" handicapped spots. These kind you don't have to back out of.
I notice the handicap sticker in the window, then see a man (maybe 30 yrs old TOPS) his wife and son get out. These guys looked like 3/4 of a relay team. There was no obvious visible handicaps at all. I wanted to ask "So, what is it, a mental thing?" but held my tongue. During our shopping for 90 pack socks, I ran into these guys about 3 times. No blindness, no hearing problems, nothing I could figure to warrant the sticker in the car.
It occurred to me that it might be someone else's sticker... That maybe his mother or grandmother, who is in need of a handicap sticker, normally drives, and that these guys were using the car/sticker for this trip. So what could I do?
Call the cops and say in a whiny voice "this guy is parking in a haaaaandiiiiiicap spot"? Sure, like I have all afternoon to deal with that. Tell someone at Sam's? They could care less.
Bottom line, I can't do anything except come here to rant. I hope Karma is real.[/rant]
