Am I missing something?

I questioning whether I am right or wrong....

Last week the local handyman was fixing the pavement at the entrance of our garage. We were all told to park outside and not enter or exit the garage. The day got changed and not too sure everyone was informed...therefore....

Yes they went ahead with the work, put some big thick concrete slabs and stuff ontop thinking this would stop people going in and out of the garage....NO it didnt work.

People werent informed.

So this morning, its Marbella Holiday and I want to go out. I cant because where people drove on the newly laid concrete last week (because they were not informed) they have to do it all over again....yet my car is in the garage.

After a big moan and demand that I get my car out...the workmen agreed and allowed me out.

I said...there are lots of cars still in the garage....why don´t you knock on everyones door and tell them whats happening, get them all to take their cars out so you do not have to repeat this...

"Its a holiday today" was the answer...but people were in. They didnt seem to understand what I was saying...Am I missing something? They didnt seem to think that people would move their concrete slabs should they need to get out of the carpark.

Because people were not informed the first time they have to repeat the job. Already this afternoon, someone who needed to get out has moved the stuff and driven out...

Next week they will have to repeat the job.

What is wrong with informing everyone? Is this not general common sense? Do I not understand something because I am English?

Bit like when there was a communion that took over the whole pool area - none of us were informed.

Am I missing something?
