"How long are the delays?"
What is the rational behind passengers asking staff "how long are the
delays?" after hearing a public address announcement stating that the train
service is delayed.
I mean, if you think about it, the question just doesn't make any sense. The
amount of times I have been sarcastically informed by a passenger that I am
'very helpful' because I can't tell them how long they are likely to be
"delayed" just beggars belief.
