Impatient Guyby ~avotius

People like this kind of get on my nerves, the fact that there are people all over Chongqing like this doesn't help either. This guy wants to get on the bus. This particular bus you get on at the front door and stick your fare into the money slot. This guy is in such a hurry to get on the bus (probably because he is afraid one of those people behind him will take the seats before him) that he tried to pull the door open. The driver finally opened the back door but not before this fine fellow jammed the thing by forcing it. And I used to think American's were impatient...

The speed of city life is 10x magnified than rural life. I've experienced both and honestly enjoy city life better. So much more anonymity. Great capture it is very congruent. Did you have to be on your knee to capture this?

another example of the high level of impatience that I experienced in China is when people rush onto a crowded elevator before waiting the 2 seconds it would take to allow the people wanting to get of to exit.
