Board the bus first

I used to take an office shuttle bus to reach home in the evenings. After years of subjecting myself to such treatment where the men allow the women to board first , I felt offended when that doesn't happen anymore. 

The office bus is a mad rush , with men pushing and shoving , the ladies mostly are left behind. The other day, I was cribbing to my colleague on what madness this is , well, he agreed too.

That's when it had me thinking . When did boarding first become a previlledge. Why did it occur to me to be offended not to have been let to board first. If am tired, so are they . There might not be enough seats , and they would have to take another , just like me. But, I refuse to  see the other side's story, rather complain on what I perceive is decency. Sorry all , next time there is a mad rush , count me out and I don't judge you , I have no right to judge. Enjoy your ride !!  

Ironically, this morning too, I was waiting to board the bus , and the men let me board first. Hmm...
