The Grump Train

I guess I'm riding the Grump train this morning... I'm in the front car and the corpulent train driver is yelling at everyone who just shows their monthly pass but doesn't swipe it. You're supposed to swipe the pass, but if you just show it the guy is supposed to push a button on his fare collector to say that you're okay. But he yells at everybody... Even the kid whose Student pass doesn't have a stripe!

Meanwhile, the lady driving the car behind continues to make announcements emphasizing that the fare is a dollar fifty, and that the value of a token is a dollar twenty-five and if you're paying with a token you need an additional twenty-five cents. I see or hear her all the time on this route... She must be tired of stupid people by now.

I wonder how I'd behave in those kind of situations?
