Thanks, but.....

I appreciate total strangers being helpful. But sometimes.....

The other day, we were waiting for a trolley. A guy started talking to me; you know the usual "Oh puppy, I know you're working, but...." Nikki doesn't mind others petting me when we are waiting for a bus as long as they ask her first. However, this guy just started feeling me up! Yeah, of course, my tail went off 100mph! So Nikki & the guy sort of started talking about guide dog team and how we work and stuff. Then the train came. The guy said that was the Blue line, which was ours. OK, thanks!

Nikki grabbed my harness and we were off towards the train door, right? No, the guy was in my way on the narrow platform! He was asking Nikki which car she wanted to get on. She tried to tell him that we could manage it just fine! However, the guy wasn't leaving the poor blind lady & the dog alone!!! He kept getting right in front of us!!! Meanwhile, the train took off, and we had to wait for another 15 minutes... The guy was again trying to engage in a chat with Nikki, but she was quite annoyed with him. So she picked up her cell phone and pretended that she was on the phone.
