Inconsiderate Parking!

I spotted in St. Clair Beach Shoppers Drug Mart. A woman, who says she has a handicapped mother, parked about a foot away from the driver's door of a car with a handicap permit, in the same handicap spot. The Camaro didn't have a designated sign in the car. The elderly woman had to try to get into her car, in pain. The owner was watching through the window at the checkout. When I confronted her, she said she has a handicapped mother and would never do it on purpose - that it was an accident. Really?! Then why would you not move your car and let the woman in hers?

disrespectful boys

spotted: the mothers of the horrible 6 teenage boys that came into my taco bell Tuesday night. I'm so sorry you have to deal with these disrespectful young men. After trying to bring their bikes into the store, I told them that I couldnt allow any bikes in the store, they began yelling at me saying that someone would steal it. after fighting with them, they finally put their bikes outside, I served them their food and a couple minues later they tried sneaking their bikes in again. I told them to put it outside again. After all of this, they began filling their cups with pop after not paying for any, and that was the last straw. I told them they would have to leave, they began yelling and swearing at us. Completly uncalled for, they will not be welcome in the store again. and im sadly sorry that some parents have to deal with such disrespectful children.

Bad Drivers

I was rear ended on the weekend in the drive through at a popular fast food restaurant. The person that hit me was not exactly nice. After pulling over to examine my car, she pulled over to look as well. It was a very small dent and I am well aware that people have bad days. I was willing to look the other way until I asked what happened to make her hit me. She basically said she wasn't paying attention. And it has been an uphill battle ever since.
To all those bad drivers out there.... Remember driving is a privilege. It can be very dangerous and very scary. Take your phones out of your hands so your hands can be used on a steering wheel! Keep your eyes on the road! And if for whatever reason an accident happens, the least you can do is apologize and make sure the person you hit is okay.

Texting Driver

Driver in a green jeep on EC Row East Bound got on at Huron Church, jeep was swerving in the left lane, almost onto grass then almost side swiping a transport, continued to drive this way up past Howard, then went off at Walker, again hitting brakes, swerving, we looked to see and there it was a cell phone clearly sitting on the steering wheel, to the girl with brown straight hair in a ponytail driving that jeep wearing a hat you should be aware you have been spotted take this as a warning for your safety and safety of others to put that phone away nothing is more important ever!

The little entrepreneurs

Today my son and I were coming from goodlife and we spotted 2 little girls with a giant sign selling drinks. I was so excited that I pull along side them and asked them how much they were selling the drinks. They told me 2 dollars even though I though that was a bit high I scrounge for 2 dollars in my car and thank them I did tell them if they lowered their price they may get more costumers .The little girl replied that they only had enough for 6 cups. And they wanted to but more so they had to make enough. I thought this was so adorable.
As I was driving away I overheard a man in his thirtys walking his young son say how much for the drinks and the young girl and she replied 2 dollar and the man. He replied very rudely to the girls that he could get a drink much cheaper at Macs milk. I thought the two girls were going to cry how rude of that man and what a bad example he was settling for his son. One day I hope those girls have the biggest local business in Windsor and hope the shew him out of their store ;)

Some people...

Earlier today, right by the bus terminal
A lady (possibly in her 40's) took one look at me and made a snide remark about aboriginal people and how they shouldn't live in Windsor. I'm not aboriginal. I do not know her and I do not know what is her problem. Maybe she assumed I'm aboriginal because of my appearance. I was bullied as a kid because I look different than everyone else. But then again, there's karma.

garbage can lids go missing....now what?

Many of us have read the new by-law, heard about it, or been giving a warming about what is acceptable for a garbage bin (with a lid), but when they come to collect it, the workers whip the cans around like nothing, then throw the lids where they see fit!! Completely disgraceful if you ask me!! For the amount you guys get paid, is it too much to ask to do your part in helping is TRY to make the city look better? BEFORE the garbage dump is filled with all the run over lids? Which we, the citizen have to replace because of your carelessness????

Rude Man at Costco Propane Fill Station

While getting my propane tanks filled at Costco today - I saw a man approach the fill station - there was an obvious line formed and he bypassed everyone and placed his tank down close to the pump as if he were next in line. The young mother with 2 children who had been waiting in line (she had her children in a cart with her propane tank outside of the yellow parking block barrier) mentioned to the man that she was next in line - the man started huffing and puffing, told this young mother that her propane tank was still in the cart, said to her that the attendant wouldn't come and get it for her. The mother replied that she didn't want to leave her children unattended in the cart for any longer than she had to as the cart can not cross the yellow barrier so she was waiting for her turn to bring the tank to the attendant. She left her children, placed the tank in front of the mans tank and went right back to her children. Kudos to the attendant who finished with my tanks and immediately asked the young mother which tank was hers, filled it and proceeded to place it directly into her cart so she wouldn't have to leave her children again.
To the rude man - you have been spotted for not understanding that your time is not more important than those around you and for not understanding the concept of waiting your turn. As I was walking away I overheard the mother explaining to her child (probably age 3 or 4) how it is important to wait your turn in line -perhaps you could use a refresher course yourself?
