Offer to let someone with heavy items go first. Here is another one
having to do with public transit. The route on which I live has a
combination of young, old, professional etc. that ride it every morning
and night.

One day the trolley is packed to the point that it is standing room only
and a guy gets on with a cast on his left foot and a cane in his hand.
Not one of the younger college kids offered this man their seat. I just
shook my head and held onto the rail so I wouldn't get launched toward
the back of the trolley when the driver took off.

It is all too often I see this behavior. It is my firm opinion that
anyone under 25 should be kept in a cage until that age hits. They
should NOT be allowed to interact with the public.

Sheesh, I feel like an old ******* for saying that.
