Some people are parking in this man’s paid spot
People (I don’t know who) will frequently park in my space.
I always leave a note asking them not to park there.
I figure I’m technically also paying for that space, so someone else shouldn’t get it for free.
His friend tells him to just let it be, but he thinks otherwise.
Also, if they knock the wall making up the space, that’ll be on me.

I completely disagree.
Am I the jerk here?
