I WIN! I just got through to parking services. The lady on the phone thought these people were just as petty.

I am now worried that these people are going to start dishing out some retribution. The crappy thing is though I haven't driven my car since October 3rd! Its been stuck in my garage. I do feel bad, but I spent a month trying to get them to move the original car, and then they go and pull this.

Well yay for the small victories!

Congrats, are you going to sit in the window and watch as it gets towed away?

That is really ignorant what if it was an emergency! Stuck between a rock and a hard
place. Sorry for asking but do they pay much to get the car back? Yeah I'd be a tiny
bit scared they may do something back. I have had some really low neighbours in the
past even after giving people stuff, they pull crap, go figure....What do they say, Love
thy neighbour. Who said that, anyway lol

Well parking services came out, and I guess they saw the truck coming because they moved their car of their own accord. When I got outside to meet the toe truck the driver relayed the story to me. Apparently they see this kind of pettiness all the time. I've been advised to keep calling when it happens, and if it escalates, then take it to CPS.

My neighbor on one side won't even look at me, in fact he won't even pull in his drive way if I'm in mine, he will circle the neighborhood until I'm gone. I'll stand out there just to watch him do laps, I think it's hilarious, my wife doesn't. The weird thing though is we've never had an issue. I don't park in front of his house, I cut all the grass between our houses, I shovel all the way across their drive way in the winter. He will talk to Anathea ( my wife ) every time she is outside. Maybe I just look intimidating, lol

Yeah, people are crazy. There are some older people who live in my building, and they're apparently terrified of me. Why? I don't know...because I'm not geriatric? Because I have a beard? Because I'm a big guy? Call me crazy, but those aren't prerequisites for "murdering rapist"....

A guy from Pakistan moved into the building last month, and my neighbor overheard another tenant wondering aloud if he was a terrorist. *sigh*

Anyway, glad you got it sorted, for today anyway. Let us know if you need any help sorting it out in the future....sounds like we have some creative ideas going around

Start getting ready for next time now. Take some of your old homemade food out of the freezer. Put it outside in the sun and let it stew until liquified. Pour a bit in the vents on the front of the car. You could always spill wc water over it, in a year or two the car will go away on it's own, hehe. I also have access to pig turds if you need some. They can be sent Canada Post if packaged well.

Congrats on the new fence!!

Sometimes I have a jacka** park himself behind me, but I just slap him on the butt or send my dog at em and he moves . Stuff like that makes me really appreciate the country life. I hope this doesn't continue for you.

It's just a shame you live next to such idiots.
