満員電車の中


On the way home from work, there was an old guy showing his disability card or whatever and saying “please turn off the cell coz I use medical equipment.”

Thought somebody would offer him a seat or something.

No one did.

He was kind enough to notice that in the priority seat where it says “turn off the cell near this seat”. Then, there was a person who ignores this notice in front of him and keeps typing it. So the old guy had to tell him over and over again, in the end he goes “would you like to harm disability though I begged you?”

The whole atmosphere got gloomy. Now people put grimace on their face and looking at the old guy. God.

What is the reason of this mood shift? No it is not the old guy. The person who did not turn off the cell is the wet-blanket… There is definitely a Japanese custom, of..How would I say…”No bother, no fuss-rule”under the skin.
