Parking lot Princess

One of the things that just drives me crazy is the way people behave in crowded busy parking lots. I have three main issues, the first one is the people who will wait, with their blinker on, for shoppers returning to their cars and continue to wait while they load up all their groceries in order to get a good parking spot. They are either absolutely oblivious, or absolute ass holes. The end result of this is a line of cars who can not pass, all waiting for this one person to get her parking space so that she will not have to walk an extra forty feet.
Another problem, people who don't return their shopping carts. Listen people, it's not like you have to take them all the way back to the store, just to the cart corrals they have all over the parking lot. They put those there so that runaway carts don't damage vehicles. Which brings me to my next point.
This issue can probably be attributed to the same type of person who is responsible for the first one. My car has been dinged and bumped into more times than I can count. Either by shopping carts, or people opening their doors too wide, or because they backed up too far, and I have never to date had a note left by anyone.
Listen, I'm not perfect, I have been responsible for some dinging myself, usually due to the fact that my middle child is the proverbial bull in the china shop. Yet, if there was ever damage, no matter how small, I would track down the owner and apologize, and offer to pay for it. Too many make excuses, they might feel that if their kid did it, it's not their fault and they should not be held responsible. Well, they would be wrong, as a parent they are responsible for any damage their child might do to another's property. Also, there is a golden opportunity being missed here, the opportunity to lead by example. When your child sees you do the right thing, they learn to do the right thing themselves, when your child sees that you have no consideration or respect for the property of others, then what do you think they learn?
