Women Rock Those Parking Spots!

That's what I said. We are way better parkers! You know how I know? Because I think of things my husband doesn't - it goes beyond just parking straight. It means I notice the fact that there are 4 more parking spaces that are closer to the entrance to the restaurant. My husband just parks where he happens to be. Plus, I am an avid blinker user.

You know... someone puts on their reverse lights in a crowded parking lot and I shout, "Put on your blinker!! That spot is ours!" Most of the time people respect the blinker tag. Sometimes they don't. I don't like these people. In turn, if someone gets that blinker blinking before me, I will cut my losses and move on, albeit jealous. My husband hates this whole maneuver and tells me so every time I shout it in his ear. But we get the parking spot! If it were up to him we'd be trekking from the lot across the street.

The other reason I know women are better parkers? My husband (sorry dear) never gets the car straight. It's become a joke with us that I don't think he enjoys as much as I do. So ladies, check out this ingenious move by a woman:


Who gets the last laugh there pal!

I also think that women are more patient and are willing to look for the best spaces. Men tend to be in a rush and will just grab the first one they see!
