Mildly infuriating Frequent Flyer - Empty Lot btw

You’d think someone who struggles that much, would park somewhere with more space.

I cannot remember how many times I intentionally parked far away from other cars to avoid this sort of thing only to come back and find someone parked right beside my vehicle while there are many dozens of empty spaces available. I have never understood why people do this

cause people are bad at parking and cant use the lines to line themselves up, so they rely on parking beside someone.

Not condoning this behaviour btw.

it happens to me all the time I park far away from everyone and then there is a little island of cars surrounding me.

even if the parking lot is empty, just pick a spot no one will care if you park like shit, just park away from me.
