Re: complaint Box / Subway Manners

Just finished reading an article by Lynn Harris..'Yes, I'm Pregnant,
and Yes, I Want Your Seat' in the Sunday's New York Times. Well Ms., if
you were standing while I'm sitting, no way you are getting my seat. And
I'm not being mean either.

Why on God's green earth would you be riding on a subway train pregnant?
If I was a female, I would plan out my trip so that o would be taking
buses. I don't care, you can get help faster aboveground, than below if
you ask me.

Taking your kids on the train with you too, I.e., baby stroller? You
know damned well that you will have to carry it up or down some stairs
somewhere along the line. So, I'm or some other or any other person
suppose to help you with your stroller. Nine times out of ten, I can
left it without your help, so you hold on to my backpack while I do the
lifting. One woman told me, no, asked me why should she carry my
backpack. Didn't I walk away from helping her. She had got very nasty
with me.

When I sitting on a crowed train, I have my music on, thru my headphones
and my eyes closed. A female Pope could be standing right in front of
me, and I won't offer my seat. I don't care if you're pregnant either.
What makes you 2.25 better than mine. First come first serve is what I
say.

Then you get the old ladies that put on an act. An act like its the
Academy Award show or something. Bravo, bravo is what I say. If there
was a threat of a tunnel collaspe, and you were on that same train, are
you letting this old lady get out before you? Maybe one ot 2 of them.
You take your chances when you ride a public transportation system. So
why should anyone have special treatment. Mind you, there were laws put
in place that MADE some of US ride in the back of the bus too.
