Any unforgettable commute encounters to share?

Hi kei-chan! If I were in your position I would have bumped into her intentionally! People like that gets into my nerves! I couldn't care less if she started shouting or whatever. It would be her embarrassment not mine since she's the one blocking the way and not me. Actually I've done that to people who are inconsiderate. lol After I intentionally bumped them, I will "oh, I'm sorry!". lol I have a lot of experiences in commuting, many are bad and a few are acts of gentlemen. ^^ Another thing that irritates me are people riding a jeep with voices like a cockroach. I mean, when they say "bayad po", they say it with the littlest voice I've ever heard in my entire life! It's as if they were giving inexact fare and they were so ashamed of it. I mean, hello, we are riding in an open vehicle. It's too noisy around! And when they realized they couldn't be heard, it's the time they will make "kulbit" the person in front of them. I don't know, but it irritates me. ^^ Another thing. Last thing. ^^ People who ride an almost empty jeep and choose to seat farthest from the driver, if there are someone already inside, they will sit at the back of that person so they can "can you please give my fare to the driver?". And if there's no one inside, they will wait for someone to get in before they give their fare! Isn't that too lazy??? .

LOL! That's a funny moment out there. If I were you, I would bump her while saying "padaan" loudly haha! As for me, I have two unforgettable commuting experience. The one is funny and the other one is a sad story. First, the sad story. I was riding in a jeep to go for a job interview. Obviously, I was on my corporate attire and you know that slacks pants are not advisable to put your phones into because of its texture and loose appearance. I did not know what was I thinking that day (maybe I was just tensed for the interview) that I put my phone on the pocket of my slacks which I normally do not do even on some occasions where I have to wear slacks. When I was about to get off the jeep, several men suddenly stood and tried blocking my way while they are slightly laughing and someone has apparently got off the jeep quickly. Then I noticed my phone on my pocket was gone. I tried catching that guy but he got on a bus quickly too. And I was not even sure if my phone was on the one who got on a bus quickly or just on one of those several men who blocked my way upon getting off the jeep. The people around me just stared like it was even my fault for that incident. Due to so much disappointment with the lost of my phone and the people around me that time, I shouted some foul words even when I was just some meters away from a church. Now for the funny one! It was my first day as a college student. Due to a huge campus, I rode a jeep going to my first subject. I did not know back then when my first class would be actually for I was still a newbie then. The ride took a little long but I have not doubt because I thought its just normal. Then, I noticed I was the only one on the jeep and the jeep seemed to go back to the place where I got on the jeep. I asked the driver if he'll pass a particular place where I need to go for my class. He said that we have just passed it and that he was then going back to the starting point of his route to pick up another set of commuters. In my disgrace, I rode another jeep going again inside the campus. I got off the first jeep and rode another one going to my class. Obviously, I came late on that class. Good thing was that's only the first day of classes. After the class, I had learned that there was an easier I could have got on where I only needed to walk some meters away from the place where I rode on the first jeep. LOL!

Yes! I remember once upon a time many years ago I was travelling on the London underground tube network and there was this passenger who stood by the door that led into the next carriage. The window of the door was open and there was this tremendous breeze entering the carriage. He was wearing this strange hat and the wind was obviously catching it but it remained on his head and it was blowing about all over the place! It was a funny sight and I could not help but laugh continuously and he knew that I was laughing and he didn't mind. It was definitely a very funny moment and I will never forget that experience. I journey was made all the more exciting by having experienced that. Anyway, I haven't experienced anything else as exciting and trips on the tube have actually been very boring! Andrew

hi keihimekawa i tried to ride to a jeep going home to give a money to my mother i just came from the bank. and honestly i just withdraw 50,000 pesos my boyfriend accompanied me until i ride to the jeep , i was very careful about the money and try to hold my bag , i hold my phone and txt my boyfriend until i found at that the boy in front of me is a pick pocket-er , he is trying to get the money from an old women a very very old who is sleeping , the pic pockter tried to put his hand on his coat so that people cannot see it and i think he got some money so my heart palpated very fast and i hold my bag because i think the pick pocketer know's that i saw him getting the money at the end part of the jeep behind the driver there is a man always starring at me and when someone go down to the jeep he suddenly seat behind the pick pocketer that's the time i felt very nervous, keeping in my mind that i would reach already my destination because i have a big amount of money if they will hold up as in the jeep, both of them are steering at me, my clothes , my bag , my phone so i suddenly get my umbrella because it is raining hold my bag and try to go down quickly and thank's they didn't try to follow me.

LOL! what a great experience at LRT.. :) Me, I had unforgettable experience. just 2 stations before Kamuning but the MRT is so full. A lot of passengers are really waiting and "nag-uunahan"... On the third ride of the MRT since I started waiting, I finally got the front place, meaning i'll surely ride the next one.. at the same time I'm so nervous because at any moment I may fall due to the tight pushing of people at my back. I was able to enter the train not because I walk, but because "tinulak nila ako papasok" with my hair "nasabunutan" and my feet were step by, haay! my french tip cutics gone away! So bad, it seems that we have no breeding!!! (But I can't blame them, that's life, they'll gonna be late if they won't do that.) After that I never ride MRT during rush hours like that and I choose to be on a bus. It's so irritating but reminiscing it makes me laugh. hahaha

You should have told her to get a cab if doesn't want to be inconvenienced, i hear that comment all the time and it's very effective.
