People I hate

What is it about being on the train that brings out the worst in humanity? Take for instance the chain caller. Like their smoking brethren, they string their calls into a seemingly never ending chain of annoyance.

They come in a wide variety. There are the social directors, those lucky few that seem to be coordinating events more complicated than the Normandy landing (incidentally this type of chain caller inspired today's entry). Is a night out at Chili's really that important that the rest of the train needs to hear about it? If there is a benefit to this type of caller it's that you can be sure to be where they are not.

Other types are the relationship therapists, the playboys and the workaholics. Whike the motivation for their calling is different, the end result is always the same. Please, do us all a favor and learn to use text messaging.
