Had the worst Tuesday at the Bothell QFC parking lot last week

I seriously almost got into a fistfight over a parking spot near the Starbucks entrance. Some guy in a giant lifted truck blocked me while I was clearly waiting, then had the nerve to yell at me like I was the one in the wrong. The whole thing took 20 minutes and my ice cream melted by the time I got home. Anyone else notice that lot brings out the worst in people?

That lifted truck guy sounds like he was compensating for something besides just bad parking etiquette. I swear the Bothell QFC lot has its own gravitational pull for chaos, especially on a Tuesday afternoon. My personal record is 11 minutes circling before someone finally left, and by then my kid was screaming about a melted Gogurt. Maybe they should hand out complimentary anger management pamphlets with the receipt.

And honestly I used to think people were just being dramatic about how bad that lot is, but after my own near-meltdown there I totally get it now. I saw two people almost come to blows over a cart return spot once, and I was the one who had to wait 15 minutes for a minivan to parallel park badly. This place really does bring out the absolute worst in everyone who pulls in.
