This morning I was on my quest to find a pocket radio. See related thread: http://tsikot.yehey.com/forums/showthread.php?t=32869
As per advice of our fellow Tsikoteers, I went to SM Megamall. I got there around 10:30am (what time does SM Megamall open?).
When I arrived, the que for the open parking was quite long already. Which is ok, I'm not really in a hurry (I finished holiday shopping last October).
The entrace to the open parking is lined by a small concrete divider (to segregate vehicle going further straight and those entering the parking area). However, the divider has a break as it approaces the open parking entrance. The break serves to allow vehicles exiting one of the parking buildings to exit directly to EDSA.
I don't know if some people are just blind, dumb, or naturally stupid. But lots of cars are just forcing themselves through the break in the divider to access the open parking. Of course, if you have been patiently sitting in line for some time already, this is not a sight you'd want to see.
What is more irritating the guy in front of me must be sedated or retarded or both. He just lets everyone cut in! I get a little irate and toot my horn for a good minute or so. This sends the Megamall guards (including their 'civilian' units) scrambling to my location. I gave them a piece of my mind.
They start to put barriers where the break in the concrete is. The barriers allow vehicle exiting the paypark to access EDSA but makes it difficult for those cutting into the line to successfully merge.
What's more stupid is a guy in a Toyota Innova actually gets mad at the guard for not letting him cut in and starts some sort of a shouting sermon! Again, I do a full press on my horn. The guard (standing outside my passenger side window) just says something like: "nagagalit na yung mga nakapila" and points to me. The Innova driver gets mad and leaves (what a wierdo).
Thank God my holiday shopping is done.
