Entitlement

Seems to me an awful lot of people have a great sense of entitlement these days. An example: This morning at thePrincess' preschool while the rest of us lowly minions were parking in actual parking spots and turning off our cars and perhaps even getting smaller children out of the car to walk in to the preschool, Mr. IhaveabigtruckandcanparkwhereverIwant pulls up to the sidewalk, thereby blocking the ramp that some moms use for strollers, leaving his truck running and walking his kid in. There was no one else in the truck. Why does this guy think he doesn't need to park? It's the same thing going through the pick-up line at some schools(not my kids because our system works very well and there's no way to sneak in line). When I go to pick up a daycare kid in the afternoon and sit and wait my turn in line there are tons of people going around the line, pulling up next to the line, having their kids cross a lane or two of traffic because they can't wait that extra minute for the line to move. Why is whatever they are doing more important than what anyone else in line has to do? I don't get it...

And it always seems to be someone in a monster truck or suv doesn't it? They block the ramps. They take up two parking spaces on purpose (you can tell because they're parked diagonally). They are just all around obnoxious. Does big equal obnoxious? Apparently so. Someone needs to teach them some manners. I think if your car gets less than so many miles to the gallon, you should have to pay more for gas...lol!
