( ’ ’ ?

 Needless to say, in Japan, trains are very punctual. Maybe, we can adjust our clocks by the time trains arrive and leave. On the other hand...trains here are not so punctual. Surprisingly, everybody already expect(accept?) trains will be delayed,especially the peak period.
I wondered why trains here are not so punctual. And,I found one suggestion to this question in the news paper. The news said that many people squeeze into the set of doors,especially the closest doors to stairs. So, rail staff are reduced to open the doors for idiots. And, the article was rounded off that "Train passengers:When you notice your train being delayed,don't blame rail staff,just take a look at your fellow passengers. These are real reasons why trains are often delayed."
Well..it makes my ears burn....I commuted to my high school by train for three years. And I can't calculate how many times I drove into closing doors. Even though I had never been late to school thanks to train staff's kindness. If I can say I am a behalf of Japanese, we can see passengers' selfishness both countries. Now, I have to wonder why trains in japan are so punctual...
 日本の電車は時刻ぴったりにやってきて、去っていく。。っていうのは、かなり有名なんじゃないかなと思います。一方、こっちでは、遅れてくることもしばしば。みんな、”まぁ、遅れるだろう”と、予想済み。納得済み。諦めぎみな感じです。
 なんで、電車が遅れるのかなぁ(’ ’?と、ぼんやり考えてたところ、新聞記事を発見しました。新聞によると、沢山の人が、押し合いへし合いしてて、車掌さんが、閉められなくて→遅れる。だから、遅れたら車掌さんに文句を言うのではなく周りの乗客をガン見しなさいというような内容でした。多分。。
 ん~。辛口。耳が痛い限りです。高校時代に、電車通学を3年間してましたが、まぁ、何回、すべりこませてもらったことか、どんだけ車掌さんの温情に助けられたことか、という、、ね。私を、日本人にカウントして良いなら、日本でも同じ状況あると言えるんじゃないかなと思います。ということで、今は、”じゃぁ、なんで、日本の電車は、こんなにも律儀にやってくるんだろう”、、と、ぼんやり考える番です。

You can tell that cityraid is selfish through the train. Like how dirty is it and the transit guard is a joke.
