[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yesterday, I had to pick up my daughter’s medication from school. I had to park in a side lot at a designated visitor’s space, which was a little walk from the main door, and in the hot sunshine. What I *wanted* to do, knowing I would be there less than five minutes, was park right in front of the school, in the bus lane, in a shady spot. It was 1 p.m., so no chance of buses being there at that time.

As I was walking up, I saw a dad do exactly that; he reached the school door just ahead of me. He tried to hold the door open for me, but I know procedure is for me to be buzzed in separately. Once in and cleared, I met up with him in the health room. We were there to do the exact same thing. Then, upon exiting, he breezed to his shaded car and sped off, and I hoofed it a bit to my hot car.

Did he impede buses or emergency vehicles? No. He did his errand quickly and was out of there. He did what I wanted to do, but was too chicken to do. He didn’t get caught, he didn’t get in trouble. He was treated as politely as I was.

Question: Is being a rule follower for cowards and dorks? Should I just use that guy as my Spirit Guide, and do what I want, within reason? Like no assaulting annoying people or parking in handicap parking spots, but…should I just stop being such a follower? [/quote]

At my kid's ES there is a half day preschool program, so, there are buses in the bus lane at 1p. It is a dick move to park in the bus lane at a school. There may be field trips, an emergency, half day programs, etc.[/quote]
