Conversation I had recently:
him: my train was delayed for 15 minutes by a hobo.
me: how so?
him: the police had to come to get him off the train.
me: whoa, what did he do?
him: he was sleeping on the train.
me: and not bothering anyone?
him: no
me: so the police came to drag a sleeping man off the train, even though he wasn't bothering anyone, just sleeping?
him: yes
me: why?
him: we thought that he might not have a ticket.
me: So a man, who you thought may be experiencing homelessness, was sleeping on the train, other passengers thought that he might not have a ticket, and called the police, who dragged him off the train? And that caused a 15-minute delay? Seems to me like it wasn't the sleeping man who caused the 15-minute delay?
him: ???
Just now, the gates were broken, so I couldn't scan my public transport card. Went out of my way to scan it at a different station, almost missing my connection.
Train conductor just checked our tickets. Young white dude next to me hadn't scanned his card. Conductor tells him to "remember" next time, even though you have to practically break through the gate to get into the station without scanning your card.
Guess we have different rules for different people here. Also I'm low-key annoyed with my own honesty and integrity. Could've saved myself 8 euros and a sprint for the train today.
