I give my seat in the bus and the tube to the elderly, the pregnant women, the disabled, the sick, the obviously too tired to stand in their feet, people with babies, people carrying to much stuff that can fall down, people who are too short to reach for the handle (that one is rare, only happened once). In fact, come to think of it, I'd probably give my seat to anyone who asked for it politely.
That, of course, doesn't mean I'm a nice guy, only, at most, a polite one. And politeness was invented to make it easier for people to live together. So, it doesn't matter to me if a person *deserves* me to be polite to them, it's supposed to be a given, isn't it.
Plus, I only take the bus ocasionaly, and I'm probably going from work, where I spent the day seated in front of the computer, to home, where I shall seat on a coach and only leave to lay down (that's an extrem form of seat where your whole body does what only your butt does in the tube) on mky bed, so I don't mind a half hour of leg-stretching. And inertia-surfing... |
