I live in Poland and I love this
country. There are so many positive things I can tell about it. On the other
hand there are few things I totally do not understand.
Today I took a bus to a library. I
hardly got into the bus. There were so many people standing right next to the
door but the further I was walking in the less people there were. I even sat
down which was very shocking to some. It wasn’t like I pushed away some elder
lady to relax on the seat. It was more like people looking at it but no one was
wanting to sit. But when I did some looked at me as if I’ve just killed
someone. I quite do not understand why, because there were more free seats
there.
I almost laughed when after few
stops still no one was moving to free area but everyone was squeezing each
other. And each stop someone was always getting in. Maybe people like to be
close to strangers or maybe they do not have their personal space. Or maybe,
just maybe they are afraid they will not get out on their stop if they get
further into the bus.
I am really puzzled why people
behave like this. When it comes to me every time I am in the public bus I sit
down when there is a free seat. I go where the free space is and I do not block
the door so everyone can easily walk in and out. And I always say ‘excuse me’
when someone’s on my way to the door. I do not push through.
I do not understand why people cannot do the
same so everyone who’s travelling will travel more comfortable and safely.
I did want to write about it because
it is not something that’s happened once or twice but it is happening always.
Let me know what do you think of travelling in buses. Are they the same as I am
taking or are they different?
