You know whats really annoying? When everybody gets on an
escalator, some joker will end up jamming up the entire line of
those who want to walk up the thing by standing on the right while
the ENTIRE space in front of them is EMPTY!
Its more aggravating when its on the MRT escalators, when you
have tons of people and usually the left will be for those who
stand on the way up and the right is for those who want to walk,
but eventually it wont take long for one person to jam it up by
standing on the right
and even better nobody makes the effort to
tell that person to scram. I mean why the person stood on the right
lane is a mystery to me, and more frustrating when the entire right
lane of the escalator is empty in front of them, blocked. If I end
up behind such people I usually ask them to give way, but most of
the time youll find yourself several people behind and the people
immediately behind never say anything, so its better to climb the
stairs if you are in a hurry.
Lets not even forget this incident when an ambulance crew was
trying to rush a sick person on a bed into an elevator, but the
people inside refused to give way saying they were in a hurry! And
even worked to close the door on them! Wah lau, they deserved to be
scolded upside down. I mean its not just inconsiderate, thats
plain evil!
