    And there’s the other end of the spectrum. I have a long commute early in the morning on the train to work daily. At that hour, if you look around, you’ll see that most people would like to take a nap, read or just collect their thoughts before tackling a noisy, frantic office. On stops after mine, some people will talk loudly while they’re getting their seats, then a few minutes later will quiet down. On some mornings there are a couple of black women who get on the train and talk loudly during the two-hour run, disregarding those who would like some kind of peace and quiet. I have to put my headphones on to drown them out, which defeats my purpose of trying to take a nap. No one’s saying don’t talk – just keep the volume down. Talk lower or whisper. If someone were to tell them in a nice way not to talk so loud, they’d probably get defiant and either argue, or the next time talk even louder, just to be spiteful.
