So, this just happened ... I was early for my ride home, so I waited against the building, rather than at the curb at the Passenger Load Zone ("PLZ"). About 10 minutes before my ride text me he was close, a car pulled a U-turn in the middle of the street. Correct that, the driver *attempted* a u-turn ... it was more like an "oops, I almost hit that parked car, need to put the car in reverse in the middle of the street, then pull into the PLZ spot" kinda maneuver. Mind you, I'm watching this all unfold and chuckling to myself. The driver then proceeds to sit in the PLZ ... for 10 minutes! I decided I will say something when I know my ride is close. So, when I get the text he's headed my way, I step to the curb and give her a moment to look up, which she never does. I smile, wave my hand and point to the PLZ sign. She rolls down her passenger window to inform me she's waiting for someone. I reply back, "I am, too". She shrugs her shoulders and says "ok" and starts to roll her window up. Excuse Me! I tell her she can circle the block, but she just sits in her car. I proceed to take pictures of her in her car, and the PLZ sign. She rolls her window down and yells at me, "I was fu**ing texting them. Sorry you couldn't step off the curb for your ride." OH HELL NO! I yelled back, "Sorry you couldn't read the effing sign, Biatch!". She gives me The Bird ... as she's rolling her window up! Today is not a good day to display your ENTITLEMENT, Little Girl! This Brown Girl has had enough! Despite the fact I asked her nicely and offered a viable suggestion, it was clear she felt her need was more important than mine. I should step off the curb into the street so she doesn't get inconvenienced? NOT TODAY, LITTLE GIRL, NOT TODAY! #yourentitlementisshowing
