[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There’s a neighbor on my block, a single young man who moved in about a year ago. He lives alone, and he drives a very distinctive car, so it’s easy to recognize.

Here’s what I’ve noticed: several times a week (like 3–4 days), regardless of season or weather, he drives about three blocks over and parks in a lot next to a big empty field (where I think a school used to be). The field isn’t a park, just open land surrounded by houses. He sits in his car, engine running. Sometimes it’s morning, sometimes evening. He doesn’t leave the car, he just sits there; you can clearly see him sitting in the car.

What could someone be doing that regularly in a parked car, when they live alone and presumably have privacy at home? I’m just genuinely curious if anyone has seen similar behavior or has a benign explanation. Maybe I’m overthinking, but it’s such a consistent habit that it caught my attention.[/quote]

The most obvious thing is taking a regularly scheduled work call.

Several times a week my wife has a mandatory meeting at 7:30 am, and if she's not already in the office she has to drop everything and take it. On days where the house is bananas in preparation for school, it would not be unheard for to jump in the car and take the call. [/quote]
