Took the vette out today to run to the post office and then took a short drive to "break in the turbos" somewhat. My wife works at Myway Seafood in Panacea on Wednesdays, so I drove on down there to visit with her for a while. While I was standing there a woman pulls up in an old pickup truck (a customer), and the first thing she does is to come around to the passenger side and pull her dog (boston terrier?) out and walk over to where the parking area is. Well I couldn't see exactly what was going on, but she put her dog down, and it dawned on me that he was probably taking a piss. I thought I saw the dog get awfully close to my car, so when she put the dog back in her truck, I casually walked over there to take a look.
Sure enough. Damned dog had pissed on my right rear wheel and tire. Tell you what, I was PISSED!
I walked up to the loading area where she was standing and flat out confronted here, saying something along the lines of "Excuse me, but do you really think it is just OK to allow your dog to piss on other people's vehicles? Don't you even have the faintest idea of how damed RUDE that is?" She looked like I had grown horns or something and didn't seem to have the slightest idea of why someone would get upset over something like that. She said something lame about not having a leash for the dog, and didn't have any water or anything to clean it up with. I told her that THIS place certainly has water available and I got a roll of paper towels out of the office. So she put water in a cup and went over and poured it on my pissed on wheel to rinse it off and then wiped it dry with the paper towels. All the while looking like she just couldn't understand what was wrong with what she had done.
Hell, there are trees all around us and she has to take her dog and put him on the ground right between the vehicles. What the hell did she THINK he was going to choose to piss on? I honestly think that if she had given me a ration of crap about it I would have punched a woman in the face for the first time in my life.
I apologized to the owner of Myway and she told me people do that all of the time there. They will pull up and take their dogs out of the vehicle and the dog will crap right there in the parking area. They do absolutely nothing about it and apparently don't give it a second thought. And this is a place where people come to buy food!
While I was talking to the owner and my wife, another truck pulls up, this time with TWO dogs in the front seat. I said my goodbyes and got the hell out of there....... Certainly they would have smelled the dog piss and then done the same thing. I just didn't want to be in the papers tomorrow morning and have you guys reading about some madman shooting a couple of dogs and their owners in Panacea, FL......
Anyway, just needed to vent........ What the hell do some people use their brains for?
Some people are just damned ignorant!
