Want to laugh now more than I wanted to kill him then.   Story;   I'm at work leaf blowing the parking lot and I feel a bump on my back on the leaf blower motor.  I turn to the right and there is a large Ford pickup going past me inches from my shoulder. He tried to drive past me in a smaller than truck space rather than use patience.  I went into enabler mode for a few seconds and then said "No way"  people don't abuse me and run...(Remember the police assault last year?)...So I follow him down and get his attention and the heated discussion ensues of course I have control as the victim...apply the power...and he finally tries to use this excuse....I was behind you, didn't you see me?  LOL I used rational response #1 "If you're behind me how would I see you?"  I think he'd already tested that one in his head so he backed up to "I'm sorry's" (a few) and I asked him "Look do you have the brake option on your truck"...lol I love that one and I owned his mind until he got to the same spot I was he was focused "brake option?"  Of course brakes are not an option and I finished with "Use them" and went back to work looking around for the next lolo to drive across my life.    Just a vent (it's healing)....(((((hugs))))) smile

Great story, Jerry.
Goody for you.
And seriously, since you know what's out there, have you considered getting a rear view mirror for that thing?
Stay safe!
We need you.

Good for you. I am no longer a doormat and boundaries are something I have to work on daily.  I am so proud of you for taking it lying down!
