I live somewhere where everytime I take a bus there is someone sitting on the outside seat of two. On the trains, a seat of two there is a bag or a coat. On the train a seat of four there’s a bag, a coat, feet or something else occupying the other seats. In a cafe the same…
So, one day I boarded a bus which was half full but no available seat without asking someone to move. So I picked the biggest guy then gave him a peace of my mind and directed the conversation to all in ear shot.
What happened, he ended up vacating the seat and like a preschooler wanted to know why him and not everybody else.
Ticket inspectors, cafe workers never say a word.
Your thoughts?
It’s selfish if they refuse to open up the seat if you ask.
Otherwise it’s just using free and open space for convenience until it’s needed.
