eezergood Posted February 17, 2014 Share Posted February 17, 2014 They have a pitiful amount of disabled & parent/toddler parking spaces in this place to begin with. The 3 that are designated to be used for parent/child cars have already been colonised by taxi divers & their makeshift office! Trying to get a baby in and out of a car is difficult enough, the extra space is a well & truly needed. I went to complain to the info desk/manager - of course you get the normal smile, ok ka, manager not here today bullsh!t.......total & utter morons 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Red Snake Posted February 17, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted February 17, 2014 I seen them and no one paid any attention to them especially in the handicap area. But now where I am they blocked off these spaces and upon request open them up for a handicap person. This is once again the same pattern Thais really don't give a damn about anyone but themselves, more so then any other country I been to.. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post uptheos Posted February 17, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted February 17, 2014 I'm sure some of them would park in the store if the doors slid open wide enough. Heaven forbid they should walk a few yards. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IrishIvan Posted February 17, 2014 Share Posted February 17, 2014 They should create a whole tescos for handicapped and people with children, I wont go there. It will make my shopping duties a whole lot easier and peaceful. The handicaps, elderly and anyone else with issues/insecurities, mental illnesses and problems can have the whole shopping center and carpark to themselves to spend the whole day in practicing parking and generally being slow 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JesseFrank Posted February 17, 2014 Share Posted February 17, 2014 (edited) parent/toddler parking spaces? Don't recall seeing any of those anywhere in Thailand. Tesco in Pattaya - Jomtien has them also, but similar to the OP. occupied by the taxi drivers. Well actually, since those have a brain functioning like that of toddler, they just fit in right .

You do your username all honor with your comment BLINDside, the OP did a rant about the taxidrivers occupying the parking lots designated for the disabled. Obviously you agree with that practice.

Ace of Pop Posted February 17, 2014 Share Posted February 17, 2014 My main issue with Tesco is that they don't have a smokers corner outside, like at the airport. Oh the horror.Maybe because I'm Jewish they should have a rabbi corner? They do.Its known as the Till.Wrong. It's a Jewish piano. Are You Buying or Selling.?.

Why not have parking for quick people? They do. It's the parking bays furthest away from the shop. Why do the able bodied, quick people have to park in the spot designated for us wheelies? And, why do lazy people with kids need to park next to the shops?
