Angry parent leaves rude note for woman in supermarket car park

"Maybe next time park in the parent's parking..." the NSW woman said in an open letter to an angry, note-writing parent.

After squeezing into a regular car park at a supermarket on the NSW coast, one woman returned to find an angry note left on her windscreen by an annoyed parent...

"Learn to park between the lines, not on them," the handwritten note read. 

"Couldn't get the baby in the car because you parked like an absolute inconsiderate tosspot," the annoyed writer concluded.

Nicole Harvey shared a photo of the note and how she was parked—clearly within the marked line, not on it—to the Ballina Community Notice Board and Ballina Crime Reports Facebook pages.

"This is what is wrong with this world"

"This is what is wrong with this world," she said, encouraging people to share her post so the person in question "can learn from this".

In her open letter to the person who left her the "lovely note" at Ballina Centra IGA, she had this to say...

"The car that was parked next to me was on the lines so I had less room to work with—they must have left before you came out."

"Maybe next time park in the parent's parking. That's why they made them."

Nicole went on to say there are "bigger problems in the world" and there's "no need to be rude'. 

"Kindness is free," she said.

"Just another Karen..."

The comment sections were filled with people supporting Nicole and confirming her park was fine, while criticising the person's decision to leave a nasty note. 

"Whoever wrote the letter could've parked somewhere else," one person said.

"That mama must have a lot of time on her hands to write that ... Don’t worry about her just another Karen," another said.

"At least it was a note and not scratched paint," one person added.

"I don’t see a problem with your parking when I have my daughter in the car I park as far over as I can in order to get her out safely. It’s not like you were parked in two spaces," one mum said.

"Reach over and put your baby in via the other side of the car—done this before—or reverse your car back a bit, hazard lights on and strap baby in! No need for grumpy notes that clearly got all the time in the world to write," another parent said.
