Conflict Resolution 337
Storyboard Text
- Chris, Every time I shovel a space I see you peeking out the window, and I come back with your car in the spot I shoveled!I want to see you shovel snow for once!
- I have shoveled snow, the sidewalk and steps too! so you're welcome!
- Just answer me why you keep stealing my shoveled space every time I drive away!?
- Well I shouldn't let a perfectly shoveled space to go to waste, should I? If I don't take it someone else will!!
- I guess I hadn't thought about it that way. I can see we are both frustrated and want the same thing: a shoveled space for our car.
- Yes! I am frustrated. Plus I don't appreciate being called a thief!
- I can understand how frustrating that would be. I apologize for letting my frustration get the best of me. I am more clear headed now that I have heard your point of view. I might have done the same thing.
- Can you accept my apology so we can resolve this? I know we both want the same thing: a clear space for our cars.
- I do accept your apology.
- I can see we were both frustrated. Is there some way we can find common ground and both get what we need?
- I would really like that. I don't know exactly how to solve it though, what are your thoughts?
- Is there a way we take turns shoveling the snow? Or if you move into my spot, could you shovel one next to it?
- I don't know if I can always do that, but I can try. Or could I have one of the kids come shovel it for you if I take the spot?
- I've got an idea: Can I pay your kids $10 a day to shovel my parking space in the morning, and also shovel one for you? That way they can make some extra money, and both of us also get what we need
- That sounds great actually! I'll talk to the kids and see if they'll take rotating shifts. I'm really glad we talked about this.
- Awesome. I'm glad we talked too! Here's my number so we can stay in communication. Thanks, Chris.
- Thank you Pat! I'll give you a call soon.
