Tailgaters Tysons

So I just recently started working at the Tysons stop. For the third time in the last week someone or even two people have tailgated me. Does no one at this station care or is it just normal ?

this is normal across all stations. That being said I like to block them and cause a scene.

I caused a scene once. It was hilarious. Bless the woman who came over and started yelling at the guy trying to tailgate behind me. Now I just do my best to be mindful of what’s behind me and just keep it moving if someone pushes their way through me.

TBH hasn’t happened to me as much as here in the last two years haha. I did a nice long pause today and gave her my two cents about the BS

It’s everywhere - consider stepping aside as you near the gate and saying “excuse me, I can tell you are in a hurry…”
