Come and join me on my life after 40., I’ve been meaning to comment on this for a while now and it’s after 4 years of living here that I can say I have experience each one of the following behaviors’ enough now to know it’s not a one off incident. Waiting for the bus: Every morning I have line up for the bus to my office (actually I catch Taxis now). Standard process, line up, wait for bus, catch bus to office, get off, job done…. Well except for the people that decide not to get on the bus because they didn’t get a seat. Now I can understand this if it’s a ½ hour bus ride and 5 minutes waiting but this particular bus has a 15 minute waiting period with about a 7 minute bus ride. Why would you stand up for an additional 15 minutes when you could stand on the bus for about 7 minutes and be in the office? view page
