Hello, a to Z english podcast listeners.
Welcome to a new episode.
Today we're going to be doing an episode of am I the jerk?
Where Jack reads up an excerpt from the Internet and we decide whether the person involved was a jerk or not.
Make sure to chime in with your opinions in the WhatsApp group.
All right, so this is the story.
The title is am I the jerk for getting the train.
Anyway, when my friend missed me.
My 32 year old female friend is always late.
And so these are two.
Actually, it's two females.
One is 32, one is 31 years old.
My friend is always late.
Most of the time I just deal with this fact and bring a book with me when we're meeting up because I know I'll be waiting at least 20 to 30 minutes for her to show up.
It irritates me, but I'm used to it.
We booked a holiday together and were due to leave yesterday.
It's a train that goes to another country, so you have to get there around 60 minutes before departure time so you can go through security and customs.
I told her I'd arrived 90 minutes before to give myself a bit of leeway in case there was an issue with the train.
She said it was fine, she'd just get there 60 minutes before as we've taken that train a lot and there's never been an issue, I asked her three or four times to show up a bit earlier just in case, but she told me to relax.
I'm sure you can guess what happens next.
