This will invariably be the scene on any train you take outside of normal commuting hours (i.e., late in the evening or on the weekend). I'm actually astounded by the lack of trash all over the seats, which also seems to be the mark of people who don't take the train frequently (regular commuters usually just leave newspapers, which is annoying enough but at least it's not used food containers).
Friday I sat across from this woman that as soon as the person directly across from her got up, kicked off her shoes and put her bare feet up. Despite giving her the evil eye, which she countered with a snotty look, she made herself comfortable. On the other side this girl, for the second day in a row sat cross legged on her seat with shoes on the seat, which I think is almost as bad. What is wrong with people?? I know you want to be comfortable on your commute but this isn't your home. Please if anyone from GO Transit is listening,start making PSA's!
I think they need a first and second class on these trains. The lower classes cannot resist putting their shoes up on the upholstery because they probably did it at home growing up. I would pay extra to be separated from these proles.

ReplyDeleteThose of us who commute using GO to a job will always be classier than those who commute for anything else other than to work.
ReplyDeleteDaytrippers drive me crazy. Blue Jays fans - a good majority of them - ARE THE WORST COMMUTERS ON GO TRAINS EVER EVER EVER annnnnnnd EVER.
I leave newspapers behind for others to read. I've been the beneficiary of recycled papers many times.
ReplyDeleteLove love the commuters!! Daytrippers on the weekend can be fun,they're like tourists! There is often barf on the bus after a ball game.
