Woman Refuses To Take Her Bag Off Seat, Learns Valuable Lesson

A passenger yelled from the back, “If you get rid of her, there will be one more seat.” Things seemed to be getting worse by the minute!

A drenching of entitlement flooded Jessica’s face. “It’s my personal space! ” the young woman yelled. Another passenger retorted, “No, it’s not.” The policeman was losing patience rapidly.

Busy Commute

After an exhausting day at work, Jessica Huit was heading home. She was rushing to make the train during rush hour.

She had grown accustomed to the commotion on the streets of New York City. The protracted commutes and the sometimes crowded trains. She believed that she had seen almost everything on these trains.

She Wanted To Relax

Jessica was worn out when she got on her train. She knew there would be some cramming, but at least she thought she could find a place to sit and relax during the hour-and-a-half trip.

In order to find a seat, she pushed past those who were in the aisle. She roamed aimlessly between the carriages until she eventually spotted one.

A Spot!

The carriage was the last one. In front of the young woman, a seat was empty. As she looked around and noticed there were still a lot of people standing, she wondered why no one had taken the seat yet.

It appeared alright, besides the bag sitting on the seat. She approached the young lady and requested the seat from her. She had no idea what lay next.

A Tense Situation

With her eyes glued to her phone and earphones in, the woman ignored her. She pretended not to be aware that Jessica was around.

At this point, security had entered the compartment, and the train halted once more. Jessica suddenly sensed the tense atmosphere on the train that was encircling her. She scanned the room for angry expressions directed at the young woman.
