JamesP_81 Posted April 6, 2019 Share Posted April 6, 2019 A simple "excuse me" would have solved it.You are right and in hindsight that would have been the correct course of action however I was willing to give benefit of doubt that at every juncture the whole scenario would be over in a matter of seconds. They were taking reserved seats and no one else in the coach so no rush to barge through them to take my preferred seat. Also was on duty so head to toe in work clothes and an easy target to be complained about if I attempted to rush them into sitting down. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NJ2 Posted April 12, 2019 Share Posted April 12, 2019 On the oldest train I’ve been on for some time. 12:47 to Glasgow. There’s a boy across from me, early to mid 20’s just pulled out a comb to do his hair. Have I gone back in time? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NJ2 Posted April 12, 2019 Share Posted April 12, 2019 The boy has done an announcement on how to use the doors getting off. He’s also told folk to keep all their body parts inside the train and don’t stick them out the window. If people can’t work these things out for themselves, f**k ‘em, they don’t deserve off the train or to have all their body parts intact. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NJ2 Posted April 12, 2019 Share Posted April 12, 2019 A chap has sat next to me and whipped out the laptop, working on the train no issues (his shoes are on) but he has a desktop full icons. Use folders ffs! It’s almost completely covered by icons, there’s maybe 4 or 5 potential spaces for more icons. I’m verging on a meltdown tbh. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

parxyz Posted May 12, 2019 Share Posted May 12, 2019 C**ts who can't find their seat. Often take the form of groups of 8-10 well-rounded, cackling, Sarah Millican-esque women drinking Lambrini or the like, clearly Newcastle-bound for one of the group's hen party.This weekend saw my third interaction with this type. Was on a train going south from Dundee to Inverkeithing on Friday, and the group joined he train at the same time as me. But by the time we'd crossed the Tay Bridge, these bints still couldn't fucking find their seat, too busy screeching away about their impending mid-life crises. This type will also often: - Have massive a fuckoff suitcase each, and will often somehow be surprised to see the luggage racks full. This will only prolong the 'sitting down' process.- Make sure EVERYONE can hear them. (yep, not even headphones can save you here).- Adopt a horrendously painful accent/dialect. (This was Dundonian but it's been Geordie before). 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
