Whatever happened to common courtesy? I ride the bus every day to work now. On one of my buses, the ride in the morning is full of College kids and teenagers. There are seats in front for the elderly and handicapped. But they can't use them because some kid is sitting there. I have seen older men and women have to stand while able bodied spoiled brats sat and listened to their MP3 and playing games on their phones. Some have their music so loud that it everyone can hear it, even when they have ear buds. The drivers can't really do anything as the kids will try to beat up the driver if they say anything. I try to get on sometimes, and some kid will crowd my to get on first. Even if I am first in line. And trying to get off the bus is a pain too since the kids that do stand, don't like to move to let people off!
When I was a teenager and college student, I would give up my seat to an older person. That was common courtesy. I am unsteady on my feet at times and will sometimes say something about it until someone gets up and lets me sit down.
I have news for these young punks. What comes around, goes around. Someday YOU will be old and some young punk will make YOU stand.
Gawd I hate taking the bus to work!
