Last Night's Commute: An Open Letter
Aug. 20th, 2008 09:55 amDear Lady Blocking the Exit,
When I say, "Excuse me, coming out," that is not an invitation to block my path. When I then say again, "Excuse me, coming out," most people clear a path to the door. Since your spoken, heartfelt response of "I don't know what to do" seemed to be seeking information, I responded "Move out of the way to the door." I hope this better educates you as to how to respond when someone in the future asks you to excuse them as they are attempting to get off the bus.
Yours in the name of education and fostering communications,
That chick who *didn't* hit you with her tote bag on the way out despite your best efforts to get hit therewith
