Have you come across inconsiderate people, or rather, creatures, who block up the passage way, or maybe people who don't keep left on the escalator and give way to those who are in a rush, how about people who stands on the top deck of the bus (increasing the centre of gravity and at the same time, increase the risk of the bus overturning).
Inconsiderate people who don't keep left on the escalator is a common sight that you will see daily in Singapore, be it in the mall or say, the MRT (subway) station. Singaporeans have to learn to be more considerate. Look at the other country, people do that without being asked, but in Singapore, even if you ask, some will not bother.
Ever since my internship started, I see people standing on the top deck of the bus daily, which they are not supposed to. Is it because these people don't have common sense, or maybe they cannot read the signs telling us not to stand on the stairs and top deck.
Have you encounter people like this?

Yes, unfortunately running into inconsiderate ppl is a rather unpleasant part of life. The kind of ppl who when see you coming with your hands full of stuff will let the door slam in your face. The kind that will knock you out of the way to get through the train doors before you, the kind that will push you over to get to that last abandoned bus seat before you, and so on and so on. People like that are just plain rude. They either were not taught right as a child or forgot all that they were taught somewhere along the way. Fortunately, for ever rude person you will meet in life there are five perfectly wonderful ones you will come across to balance it out.

Yea, people ought to go for a refresher course to get back their manners and so on. It really piss me off sometimes. Maybe I have yet to meet so many nice people so the ratio is like 2 or 3 to 1. LOL.

Yes! I have come across this like so many times that people are being annoying freaks, self centered and inconsiderate. Sometimes, they do not have the basic education, so i dont really blame those people. Having more education as compared to them, what we can do is that tell them nicely instead of shouting at them. Once a lesson learn, they will know more and their knowledge book will be added inside. Probably from what we experience is that people tend to stand right infront of the train not letting people to go out. This is stupid. Why must people inside the train struggle their way out? Why cant some people be nice enough and stand one side and let people go out before rushing in. This is the world. You get to see all kinds of people around. Therefore i cant say anything, HUMAN NATURE.
