Because of a family emergency, I've been on the train a lot this past week.
A lot of people hog extra seats by putting their bags on them, or by sitting on the aisle seat so people can't get to the window seat. I think this is fair enough if there are plenty of other seats available.
But when they try to continue hogging extra seats when there are loads of people standing, I think they are extremely rude.
Surely, if there are people standing, you move your bags so they can sit. If you are in an aisle seat, you either stand up and let them through to the window seat, or slide across and let them have the aisle seat.
If they have to ASK you to move, you should apologise and make space for them.
I've seen people having to be asked to move, and not even acknowledging the person asking, never mind apologising. Or making a huge huff and puff about the whole thing. As if the rest of us are unreasonable to want a seat for a 2 hour journey.
Am I missing something?
