Platform Fever
This is only one of the many minor irritations modern existence offers. You may arrive first at the train station and wait for hours, but you don’t know where the train doors will open, causing others who come later to get inside before you and take a better seat.
You may find yourself standing throughout the whole commute on particularly awful days while those who arrived at the platform after you are sitting down. But don’t take it to heart – every day is a new challenge. Don’t forget about all of the times when you’ve got to the station just as it’s closing and managed to board the train just before it pulls out. We’re going up against each other, but we always manage to come out on top.
