It was my first day back at work and on the train. I had forgotten what it was like during the summers with a lot of "non-regulars" riding the train. This morning the train was packed and the only seat available was the one where a guy had put his bag.
When I asked if anyone was sitting there he pretended to ignore me, but I'm one of those "take no prisoners" kind of people when it comes to people who think that a seat is a place to put your shit. So I tapped him on the shoulder and politely asked, "Is there anyone sitting there?".
The guy was clearly sitting with his family because the college-aged girl rolled her eyes at me and gave me this "ugh whatever" look. But seriously, if you are going to bring your entire family down to the city with you on the train, then don't use the seat next to you as a place to put your bag - especially not during rush hour. Ugh, whatever!
Nice example he was setting for his kid! Sheesh
