Actually the lady is my wife and we are both acting out the problem as we saw this bench for the first time since it was installed on the street. Ponoka redid the street over the last year and these benches are the final touches on the project It’s a crazy place and direction to place it. The other benches down the street face brick walls of the buildings. We tested them all out and it feels so weird to have your back to the traffic. Solution is unscrew them and turn them around. I suspect someone installed them backwards. 🤣🤣👍🏼

They are all like that in Toronto, Niagara Falls, Niagara on the Lake and other places too. Personally I like finding one when I'm walking along and need a seat. But I get it. This nasty woman, I found more of an issue with. Not a very Canadian response. She was Rude and Abrasive. What happened to our Famous Alberta Hospitality? This nasty BIATCH should get with how we actually Treat people here in This beautiful country!😢 ❤🇨🇦🐈

WHILE using an ATM...

Actually, That’s my wife! She must be a good actor! We were surprised to see the town had installed benches on the street in such an arrangement. Clearly, it would be uncomfortable for a bank customer to use the ATM with someone staring at them. It would probably be uncomfortable for a normal person to use the bench too when it faces the bank. We wondered if the workers installed these benches facing the wrong way because this is unbelievably stupid!

It is a ridiculous place to put a bench! The lady was my wife and I am not a random dude. We were acting out the exact scenario that you describe. Maybe someone installed these benches backwards? If this was planned it’s an example of poor planning to say the least!

@@MrBugPop email this vid or some screen captures that show the scenario (if vid is too large) to your city's contact/town council they probably don't even know..

Good idea! Thanks for your input!
