Susan’s peaceful Fridays were shattered by her entitled neighbor Jessica’s guests constantly parking in her driveway. After weeks of mounting frustration, Susan hatched a clever plan to teach them a lesson. What followed was a turn of events that left the entire neighborhood buzzing with laughter and respect.
Every Friday for the past month, Susan came home to find her driveway blocked by a car from Jessica’s parties. The narrow driveway made towing impossible, and Susan’s attempts to resolve the issue with Jessica were met with indifference.
One Friday, Susan came home to find her driveway blocked yet again. She was exhausted and had a call from her mom needing urgent medical attention. Susan rushed to her car, only to be thwarted by the same party guests. Desperate, she called a taxi and hurried to her mom’s, arriving late and anxious. This was the last straw.
Determined to end the inconvenience, Susan decided to act. The following Friday, as Jessica’s party began, Susan strategically parked her car to block in the party guests. Hours later, Jessica knocked on Susan’s door, furious.

“Susan, move your car! You’ve blocked everyone in!” she demanded.
Susan stood her ground. “No, Jessica. I’ve had enough of your parties and the trouble they cause. This is my driveway, and I’m not moving my car.”
Jessica threatened to call the police. Susan, feeling a mix of defiance and satisfaction, replied, “Go ahead. I’d love to explain to them how your guests have been blocking me in for weeks.”
When the police arrived, Susan played her part perfectly, pretending to be tipsy and unable to move her car. Officer Miller, trying not to laugh, explained that as long as Susan’s car was legally parked on her property, there was nothing they could do. Jessica was left fuming.
The next morning, Susan visited the local police station to file a formal complaint. Officer Miller recognized her and agreed to review the evidence. They visited Jessica’s house, where Officer Miller issued fines for the illegal parking and instructed Jessica to compensate Susan for the inconvenience.
Jessica, embarrassed and angry, retreated into her house, leaving Susan with a sense of victory. The neighbors found the situation amusing, and no one parked in Susan’s driveway again.
Susan’s mom recovered, and Susan finally enjoyed her driveway in peace. Sometimes, standing up to entitled people requires a bit of ingenuity, but the results can be incredibly satisfying.
