Because walking 5 more meters (15 feet) is so terrible
Because walking 5 more meters (15 feet) is so terrible
Ok, I understand that it is more desirable to park close to the destination, specially if one is to carry things to or from the car.
But there are timers, in which in some people, that need to park as close to it, makes it look as if for them walking those extra 5 meters is harmful. It is interesting to see how sometimes just to save walking a few more steps, people keep driving around or waiting for long times.
One example from the other day, on the store park place, there were a few park spots like around 100 meters away, but there was one car that looked like going out just 20 meters ahead (or 80 away), so the vehicle in front decides to go and wait for the car that might go out in the not so closer spot. And it waited long for the people and kids to put the bags and then go inside. It was waiting even after I walked the 100 meters of the other park spots, and entered the store. So just to avoid walking 20 meter, waited for a few minutes. Well it might not look like if a few minutes would be such a big deal, indeed, but there are other times when people would go for longer times just waiting for that park place.
But the most ridiculous was yesterday night, at the park place outside of where I go to do exercise, while I parked, get all my stuff out of the car, a car went around the whole parking lot 3 times. At the end it parked "far from the entrance", or in other words, next to where I parked. I listened how one of the girls said to the one driving "Great, now i am late for my class, while you were here just driving around"
The other girls says "I wanted to park closer, so not to walk that much"
I was totally like "WHAT???", it was not even 30 meters(10 feet) to the entrance, and that was for her to walk that much, and her destination was to a place to do exercise, so what would be so bad of just walking a few steps more , even might be good for warming up (well not really being such a short distance)
Anyway, thats just how humans are.
