Problem: Escalefters You know, the people that stand on the left of the escalator or the airport walkways. People generally have two responses to an escalator: #1. Oh, an escalator, that's great because I can just stand here and it does all the work for me, I'll take this opportunity to chill. #2. Oh, an escalator, that's great because now I can continue on my way at an even greater speed/pace. Both responses are absolutely fine and I'm liable to use either one depending on my mood or situation. BUT if you are opting for #1 you need to move your ass over to the right and let people pass you unobstructed. NO ESCALEFTING Solution? -Be aware people. It all starts here, now that you've read this you can be a part of the revolution against escalefting. edit: For what it's worth, I like this idea of #soapboxsundays
Oh yeah. Applies double to slidewalks. btw, which way generally depends on which side of the road you drive on - I'd expect people to keep left, not right :-)
Or when you're trying to go for a run and a group of people just take up the entire width of the damn thing. Even worse when they KNOW you're coming up behind them and don't move.
Was running yesterday and there was a large fallen tree on the path. Sitting on the tree was a woman getting her picture taken. She saw me running towards her and didn't get up. I had to stop my run for ~30 seconds for her to finish posing. -I was less than thrilled.
Good point. I suppose where you are at they'd be escarighters.
