today in the train
[posted at 10:59 GMT]    

I didn't write much in last few days. As you may know these are my first days in new job. Not that these days are very active and full of new things for me, it is also that I do have to commute to work. I never did that before and now I am getting new experience.

Today morning I was in train rather early. There was a girl and she bought a wrong ticket. She had to pay fine. It was rather lot and she seems not have a lot of money. She was packed like going to airport, with big suitcase and some bags.
Who knows, was it the case where she wanted to save some five euros or as she said, error of somebody else. According to her she only asked for ticket and they gave her wrong one. She was crying there for rest of mine journey, about 20 minutes.
Now what should the conductor do? He charge he with fine as he has right to do so. He could also pardon it and ignore it. She can also made it intentionally, who knows. in any case she was totally down, she was left with few euros and very bad experience.
