Of the 2 buses I take to office from home, I noticed that passengers like to sit on the outside leaving the window seat empty. This is pretty inconsiderate because 1) the bus gets filled pretty fast, and people will have to squeeze into the inside seat, 2) those who sit outside are not alighting that soon, so again, it troubles other passengers to squeeze into the window seat.
Still, the ultimate in inconsideration came from this PRC passenger I bumped into recently. On this day, I boarded the bus (from office) and there were quite a few passengers who again occupied the outer seat, leaving the inner one empty. I march defiantly to the first lady and indicated I wanted to sit inside. Man, what she did made me puke blood.
I noticed that she placed her small bag of small oranges in the empty seat beside her. What?! Your oranges paid bus fare that they deserved a seat?
Never mind, she very very reluctantly and very slowly and carefully took her bag of oranges (Hello, those are oranges, not EGGS!!) away, and again at snail speed, shifted the paper bag below her, and barely moved her legs out for me to squeeze in. By then everyone was stuck behind me becos they were waiting for me to move into the seat then they can move to the back of the bus. Meanwhile, I GLARE and STARE at her with a very pissed off face, which unfortunately, all other passengers behind her can see, but she did not notice becos she did not look at my face at all. So anyway, since she gave me very little space to move in, I did not try to be polite either. I pushed my way in, pressing hard against her legs. Stupid woman!

Gosh, these PRC's give their own country folks a bad name! I hv PRC neighbours too and most of them are inconsiderate tho I've met some nice ones. Good for you to push yr way in. Agree w/ you that she's downright rude and very inconsiderate!
