"Throughout the years, we have encountered voluminous situations that highlight the frustrations and humor of the commuting experience," say authors Joe Stables and Ken Adams. With their book, they chronicle a wide variety of these incidents for readers' amusement and enlightenment, all while telling the guilty parties who have earned their ire to go "Commute This!%@#!" (published by Xlibris).
According to the authors, there are millions of people who commute on a daily basis and the lack of common courtesy while commuting has grown to near unsustainable levels, which has generated a significant amount of frustration for people. They drive their point home with their collected tales of real-life events and encounters, hilarious and frustrating at the same time, showing the perils of mass transit, the toll of public transportation and the unacceptable passenger behavior they observed.
"The purpose of this book is to provide enlightenment and bring awareness to the lack of etiquette of our fellow commuters," they state. With this book, their overall objective is to make commuters more conscious of the current epidemic of diminished values and judgment. More specifically, they relate to the lack of courtesy, selfishness and disrespect while commuting on trains, subways and station platforms. After reading this book, they hope that commuters will change their ways in an attempt to improve the overall commuting experience.
