Unhappy Some people's kids

Today at work I had to stop to get something done. I had 2 friends with me so I left them in the car with it running while I went inside real quick. About 2 minutes later one of my friends comes to get me and tells me I'm going to be pissed. My other friend decided to try be funny and move the car and runs over 2 sets of concrete blocks that are in the parking lot. I didn't know what to say because we fly multi million dollar aircrafts, a car should be safe. I really wanted to punch him in the face but resisted. After getting home I inspect everything and he scratched and dented a couple things. Nothing that won't make the car undriveable, but WTF man. What is wrong with people these days! I guess what's wrong with my parents teaching me to trust people?

You're braver than me. I only leave my parents and grandparents (RIP to my grandmother and grandfather) in the car running. Anyone else can either come in with me or sit in the car patiently.

How to hug your camaro
Buy the car that you would most like to get beat in. The other guy will always be faster.

Well, depends on your friend now. If he makes good on it, takes care of it right and is sincere, you can put it behind you.

If he's your wingman, don't worry about it.

He was very surprised I didn't get mad. I just shook my head and kept it internal. Yelling and screaming wouldn't have changed anything.

They are in their 30s, not literally kids.
