(lygenztia *77) Nothing to see here folks...'cept my truck.


Courier drivers can be jerks sometimes. They park their great big panel trucks wherever they like, block traffic and then they have the gall to wave at you, as you are trying to veer around the giant mess they have created.

I just love when they do that. They are blocking all vehicular movement on the street, parking lot..... whatever and then they look back at the people they are blocking (on the way to delivering the package) and wave. The "wave" is supposed to convey something like this...

"it's OK folks, i'm a courier. Nothing to see here, everything is under control. Just wait in your vehicles until I can finish delivering this package of multi-level marketing soap and society will be a better place."

I quite understand that it can be a difficult, physical job. I quite understand that you need to deliver goods to the customer. What I DO NOT understand is that some drivers feel they have an ordained right from a higher being to park anywhere they choose and block as many people as they choose.

Try wallking the extra 30 metres to park properly, the chaos you avoid may even get you to your next call quicker.
