    Want to block my driveway, officer? It's gonna be another minute or two on coffee.

    Font - r/pettyrevenge Posted by u/Ezra611 10 hours ago Want to block my driveway, officer? It's gonna be another minute or two on coffee. About a decade ago, I worked an early morning shift at a fast food restaurant. We opened at 6am, so I had to be at work at 5am. I would leave my house at about 445am every morning. My management was pretty relaxed about the opening shift. Clocking in up to 10 minutes late wasn't really an ordeal, as long as you showed up ready to go. I came outside at 445 to f

This officer, however, angrily informs me that I will have to wait till he's done.

Captain asks why, so I pulled out my phone and explained that one of his officers blocked my driveway for 45 minutes for a routine traffic stop.

    Font - stephenm1994 - 9 hr. ago My Grandad had a story a bit like this he used to work in a tailors where they used to make Gardai (Irish police) dress uniforms. One day two young Gardai come in to put in orders for their dress uniforms. They make the stupid decision to be very rude to my Grandad. The reason why this was particularly stupid of them is that all the uniforms have unique number embroidered on the shoulder. So when the superintendent comes who my grandad has been filling orders in f

    Font - asks if they had picked up their order yet which they hadn't but they were ready to pick up so he takes the number down off both the uniforms and he tells my grandad he will handle it. The next day the superintendent shows back up with a couple of very chewed out looking Gardai who both deliver very sheepish apologies to my grandad for their behavior. 1.5k Reply Share cailian13 6 hr. ago grandad takes no shit, good for him. 85 Reply Share

Although it is disheartening that the Captain was only upset because it inconvenienced him, not that it could have potentially cost you your job. I was excited when I read, "only under life and death situations" (I was expecting to read, to block someones driveway for 45 minutes) but then I read to make him wait a few extra minutes for coffee. Im glad he got chewed out either
