I missed my train this morning ......
...so I had to take the first bus to go downtown where I work. (Trains are available only during rush hours and that was the last train in the morning.) The thing is, I was not the only one who missed that train so a line up quickly formed for the bus. Fortunately for me, I was probably just the 15th on the line and I was happy about it.
While on line, a lady of about 30 was standing sort of between me and the guy in front but she was not really in line. I know she can't because she just arrived. But instead of going to the end of the line she, just stood still. I thought I knew why and I was right.
When the line finally started to move for boarding, she started moving too - sideways into the line in front of me. Pretending to be polite, she asked me "Were you ahead of me?" And I answered rather miffed, "Of course I was!" and annoyedly pointed to end of the line. She then tried to go behind me but she was obviously under observation as well by the girl behind so she was rebuffed again, and a short argument between them ensued.
The point is, I think I was a bit rude but then again, the lady acted unladylike. What should I have done?
And folks, that's how my day started today. Glad to say, the day was good the rest of the way. End of story. But then the snow ... never mind.
UPDATE: I missed mentioning: Jean, Jen and Ernan Joy also had a perfect day. Good for them. I am sure the other folks have similar experiences. Tell everyone about them
