Ive gotten into a routine recently. As any routine, similar things tends to happen, similar people tend to cross your path, just like you tend to cross theres.
Ive began taking either bus #12 or #27 home on some evenings. I have seen the same two Latino kids get on around 16th street. One kid is thin and has shoulder length hair. The other kid is a bit larger with a buzz cut. they are probably about 13. The stop where I get on at there is a woman that gets off at the same stop. She is in a wheel chair. Every time I am waiting to get on, and she is getting off (which takes longer than normal because the bus has to lower) the other people in line are so rude about the whole thing. They either crowd around barely being able to let her by. Or they rush on the sides of the ramp, before it even has time to fully lower and let her off completely. This last time it really frustrated me, because there was only me and this other woman, my same age, there waiting. The driver started to lower the ramp, and before it was even all the way on the ground, the girl goes around me and hops on. What is the rush? The bus isn't going to go anywhere. And can't you see, Im waiting too! Hello?!!!! I was really frustrated.
That shitty stranger to stranger interaction was made up this morning when I was on BART riding to work. A scraggly looking man, could be homeless, was sitting next to a man who was dressed very nice. They were having, what seemed to be a good conversation. When the homeless man went to get up to leave the business man gave him $5. It was a cool thing to see.
