As I asked a couple of times to please open and he refused unless I got out of the car and pushed the button he left the "non residents" gate open and cars were flying through while I was being held up along with the cars behind me. I take responsibility for dropping the gate pass but the gate employee, was on a power trip which is a first for me. As an aside, he was smirking as he was shaking his head that he would not open the gate. We have been residents around 14 years and I have never had an experience like this from a Village Employee. I should add that I had just made a round trip to Mayo Clinic and was tired and not prepared for someone who needed attention at my expense. Please no lecturers on responsibilities. I really don't
need that right now!!!  |
Call Community Watch to report him . I reported a gate keeper once who wouldn't open the gate on the guest side, for anyone because he was not looking up from his book, or game, or what ever he was doing. Cars were getting backed up. Honking didn't even get his attention. He eventually looked up and said "Oh, I guess you want me to open the gate". So I reported him to Community Watch. They were very interested and glad I called.
