I must have had an SC magnet caught on my clothes yesterday. Everywhere I went there was one.
I Don't Care If You All Miss Your Trains!
I have to get a train to my University, and the trains are hourly, so if I miss it there is no point me going, seeing as on a Friday I only have 2 hours of lessons. Anyway, I got to the ticket office, and there was one person selling tickets, which is usual for that time of day. However, the queue was OUT OF THE DOOR, which is very unusual. So, I join it, and see the hold up. This woman was harassing the poor ticket seller, asking ridiculous questions and getting him to write things down for her. Bear in mind the next train went in less than 10 minutes.
TS: So you catch the 11:30 train and change at this station to carry on to your destination.
SC: So which station do I change at?
TS: This one.
SC: What time do I catch the train?
TS: 11:30.
SC: OK this is too confusing!
TS: Here, the timetable will explain everything *tries to pass her the timetable*
SC: Oh no, you're going to do some work! Write it all down for me!
This went on for about 5 minutes, which is a long time when you're stood there doing nothing. Finally, he got her to leave, and she turned to the queue (most of whom had been stood there a good while with the look of it) and said:
SC: I WAS HERE FIRST SO DON'T YOU DARE SAY ANYTHING TO ME!
I was extra polite to the poor ticket seller.
I'm Too Good To Pay/Go AWAY!
So, I made the train, and I settled down to read my book, then I heard a commotion coming from the toilet on the train. Apparently, someone had been hidden in there to avoid paying the fare.
We got about halfway through the trip, and this man got on the train, and despite there being plenty of empty double seats, he came and sat next to me. Not a problem, except:
Man: Hi gorgeous
Me: ...hello *went back to reading*
Man: It's private here isn't it?
Me: It was.
Man: So, fancy a kiss?
Me: NO!
Man: Oh come on *went to grab my leg*
Me: Now listen. Go and foist yourself on some other poor sod, because if you have not vacated this seat in the next ten seconds, not only will I have you kicked off here for harassment, I'll make sure you can't use your little instrument ever again, got it?
He went, thank God. Scary stuff :/
Lecture Woes
I made it to Uni unscathed, and the lecture started. For some reason, there's three or four people who have to ask questions about everything. Yesterday, a girl held the lecture up for 20 minutes because she couldn't understand the difference between a prosecutor and a defendant. This is a LAW student.
Lunchtime
We had an hour's break and my friend decided he wanted to go to a different place for a change, so we went. You basically line up at the bar to order your food, so I joined the back of the queue. I was at the front and these men just cut in front of everyone to stand at the bar. The lad serving me asked me to go to his register, where the two men were stood.
OM: Are you serving here or what?
Lad: Yes
OM: Well SHE just walked up.
Lad: There's a queue and I have to serve them first, you just walked up, so...
OM: That's crap!
Me: Look! I've been waiting patiently, and the poor lad's only doing his job!
I ordered, and walked away, then as I went I saw the lad walk past the old men again to serve someone from the queue
That's all for now
