Parking Violations

I work in an office building that is isolated in a residential area.

There is not enough parking around our building, so today I had to park super far away.

Later, I found this typed note on my car:

"Could you please find somewhere else to park as we have no place to park when we get home from work. Our family have 4 different cars, so we don't think you would appreciate this in front of where you live. Thank you!"

My first thought was to go knock on this family's door and tell them "Tough luck! It's public property!" And from there I would tell them to go to hell.

Then, I was irritated by the poor grammar and punctuation found in the note. Can you spot the mistakes?

And by the way, there was parking available in front of and behind my car.

Should I be sympathetic to their situation? Maybe. I'm not the first one at my work to get the note.

But still suck it up. I would never put a note on someone's car, even if they took my preferred parking spot.
