3 Things I Really Hate About Travelling On London Tubes
Whether you like it or not, travelling on the London Tube network is a must if you live in this city, well it is for most people that like to get anywhere quickly. I know that people love moaning and complaining about the quality of service, of the tube system in London, but I personally haven’t got too many bad words to say about it.
Believe it or not, I don’t think the quality of service is too bad, in fact I personally feel that it is pretty dam good. I know there are occasionally delays, which are caused by a variety of issuses. But to blame the driver when the tube has been delayed, because some poor soul has decided to end there lives by throwing themselves in front of a speeding train, is pure craziness.
I even find the employees at the tube stations fairly good and willing to help out. I don’t even blame the staff when they are forced to go on strike because of bad and unscrupulous management. I didn’t even mind having to wait for 5 minutes, like I had to the other day at the counter, whilst the girl talked to her friend about what she got up to the night before with her boyfriend, all I can say is lucky guy!
But there are some things, which I really hate about travelling on the London tubes and they really get on my nerves. They push a mild and easy going guy to the stage, where he just feels like asking people are you fu**ing stupid.
3 Things I Really Hate About Travelling On London Tubes
1. My number one hate is those people that go for days without having a shower or bath and they stink like crazy. Why is it every time that I travel on a crowded tube, I end up standing next to Stinky. They are unbelievable, I don’t know if they are just allergic to water and soap or what the problem is?
2. I don’t understand those people that try to rush on to the tube before the departing passengers have got off it. I witnessed a classic example of it yesterday evening, an Aussie guy is trying to get off and a big Indian woman is trying to get on, and there is no where for the guy to move too. He just puts his hands up in the air and says to the woman, “give me a break, where do you want me to go.” I have been there too many times myself, I personally treat them with the same respect they treat me with and shove them the hell out of the way!
3. When the train comes to halt at the station and as most people are aware the doors take a few seconds to automatically open. I can’t help but laugh at those lunatics that furiously keep on pressing and banging on the button to open the doors. As if it is going to open the door any quicker. Are they stupid or what? The doors always open automatically!
I suppose if those people never existed there wouldn’t be too much to keep me amused on the Tubes of London!
