writes:Just wanting some advice. I am a mobile carer and this afternoon i arrived at one of my ladies and there was no where to park outside her house. So i parked two doors up knowing i would only be twenty minutes and i hoped to be out of the way by the time the owner came home.But no such luck, upon vacating my ladies house, i saw a car parked vertically in front of mine, and when i looked up at the house where the owner must be, he was stood at the window and watching me as i got in my car. Then as i was starting my engine, he tapped on the passenger window and said, 'Don't you ever park here ever again! If you do, you will find four slashed tyres.' then he stalked off.Now i am a shy person at the best of times, so i was feeling a little apprehensive when he walked to my car.He was about 40ish, and i am only 24 and i must naturally go about with a 'bully me' expression, and i have to admit i was very shaken about the whole thing. Do you think i am over-reacting though? I mean there was no notice saying no parking, as if there was i wouldnt have parked there at ALL.My friend said i should report him to the police, but i don't think it'd be worth the bother.But i am just wondering if i should warn the company i work for about this very hostile man. I felt threatened by his attitude and even when i told my dad, who would normally take the mick out of me, he to said he didnt wonder that i was a little shaken about the whole thing.Of course afterwards when i drove off, i thought of all kinds of retorts, but i know i wouldnt have used them.It has really knocked my confidence and when you are shy and retiring at the best of times, i feel very weak and sorry for myself.Anyway i just thought id ask your opinion about this man. Thanks for reading, even though you might all consider me a bit of a wimp xxx

Stay Safe!

You should definitely warn your employers. They will need to warn anyone else who is going there that there is a psycho 3 doors away.
Also, they have a duty to protect you.
Think of it this way. You don't get paid enough to have to worry about this. Pass it on up to the people who do.
Good Luck!! xx
