WHILE waiting to park my car at the Coles quick car park I was abused by two people because apparently the person leaving the spot I was waiting for was not leaving quick enough, and as a consequence I was holding up traffic! I drove off and went to the undercover parking as I was terrified. I understand that there could be frustration having to wait, as I was waiting too, but is it really necessary to abuse someone?

I have never experienced such impatience in my life. I was scared, as one of the people who approached me was quite a large man, covered in facial piecings and was swearing abuse at me.
I ran into this same man at Coles and, even though he didn't say anything to me then, I broke down in tears.
There was a lovely customer, and staff member by the name of Trish at the register, who were very supportive and helpful.
I am just so disgusted at the level rudeness, lack of respect and manners that some people have. I'm a 42-year-old woman, imagine if this was an elderly person.
