Metro-North Conductor Screeched At By 'Well-Educated' Woman

The award for most insufferable person of the week goes (not without a challenge) to the woman yelling at her Metro-North conductor, who calmly asked the customer to "keep it down and stop using profanity or to take it to the vestibule," according to the YouTube description. "Do you know what schools I've been to and how well-educated I am?" the woman says in the most obnoxious tone; it's like a parody of a wealthy woman.

"Do you think I'm a little hoodlum?" she demands. "I'm not a crazy person, I'm a very well-educated person," she says again. The conductor stays impossibly calm, even when the irate passenger touches her arm.

The college-educated psycho rightfully became the laughing stock of the train when an announcement later reminded passengers to behave, "especially those people who went to Harvard or Yale or are from Westport." And now, welcome to the internet, asshole.

Update: The original copy of this video has been taken down, but because this is the internet, it's not going away. (Sorry, Hermon Raju.) We've replaced it above with an alternate version.

Dumb-ass.

I think too many are piling on here. She did say she was sorry in beginning, others kept it going. I've seen way more obnoxious people on weekly basis in New York, this is nothing.

She may have gone to NYU (Three times! Didn't she learn anything the first time?) but I have seen better-behaved kindergartners. Wonder if she needs some anal.

Oy vey hurray oy vey hurray. This is what our economy has come to if you are so educated I cant.talk to you. Lol well get off the fucking train and board your freaking jet bitch. Oh I am sorry oy vey dont got a job thats what it said on her freaking twittet acct. What an embrassment. I wonder if she will board another train again. Now go walk. Supprising that these are the idiots that sometimes get leadership roles in our society. If I saw this video and she was working at my company I would lay her off immediately. Sorry hun your education was not alll that important afterall go get a refund.

As an NYU grad myself, I am embarrassed by this low-life. Oy vey.

She's my daily train conductor on my commute home, one of my faves. She always makes clear announcements and is very professional. Glad to see her keep her cool with this obnoxious woman.

Well-educated in what? Acting like a complete moron?….

It could have been worse, another train patron could have lectured her on her obnoxious behavior and they would have not been as cordial as the conductor. I wish that train conductor was on the LIRR. They do absolutely nothing when it comes to loud, obnoxious asshats such as this winner. Contrary to what others may think, we don't want to hear your cell phone conversation or how educated you are. Education means nothing if you don't have manners or common decency to back it up. So STFU and look into a etiquette finishing school for your next degree, you need it.
