NO. NO. NO. Don't be done with TOTV. Please stay. You have to get a little tough skinned to post on here and we all are frequently misunderstood. Your input is important, and I can well see how you would feel discouraged and downright impatient in the situation you described.. I don't know who said what...but don't you leave.

Unfortunately we live in an age where genralization of isolated incidents seems to be a norm (of sorts) which distorts reality.
Wow... this went form I almost got T-boned at the mail box station to gun control and shooting people? What? Even if I could I wouldn't.

Default Keep your cool

When I see people driving like that I tell myself to be kind and hope they don’t hit anything because if I’m lucky and have that many birthdays I to could be in those shoes some day.

Does any one besides me feel that the majority of mail stations are one way around the station? At our station The parking spots are on a diagonal and when entering the mail area there is a "no left turn sign" which to me indicates there is only one way to go. I'm always amazed by the number of carts and cars that back out of a space and continue to back up until they can drive out the exit rather than drive around the station and safely out.
I had a guy stick his finger in my face when I informed him it was one way as he was starting to do his uey ( U-turn) and he was adamant that " no where does it indicate one way traffic". To me it is dangerous. Is it possible that so many people lack common sense?
