Today a woman in a hurry to get on a metro train basically hip checked me out of the way. As she was behind me, I suppose she thought that the only way to get on the train was to get me out of her way. I couldn’t believe it. I mean, I knew the French were terrible at waiting in lines, and have a different mentality when it comes to getting on and off trains (i.e. why wait for people to get off the train when you can just push your way on before they get a chance to free up the space?), but this was a first. I made it onto the train as well, and quickly moved down the car so I wouldn’t have to stand next to such a rude person.
I just got my first newsy email from my parents who are in India! They just left Dehli where they report 14 million people live. I can only imagine what getting on a bus or train there might be like! I don’t want to think that everyone here (or in India) would have acted like this woman. They are now in Jaipur and are sound like they are having a wonderful time! I am so proud of them.
