Woman With Dog Allergy Books Train Compartment, Turns Away Passenger With Service Dog
Okay, you might think right off of the bat only by reading the title of this post that the subject of the story is in the wrong. It sounds pretty bad, right? 'Girl refuses to share her train compartment with another passenger and the passenger's service dog.' Well, that doesn't make this girl sound too great, she must be the a-hole. Or not?
THEN we started to read a little further and gain knowledge about all the details surrounding this unpleasant exchange. The original poster of this thread is allergic to dogs to start with. She also specifically paid extra for this solo train compartment so that she may enjoy it by herself. Once she explained to the intruding passenger that she has an allergy, she was met with a rude and snarky 'Are you deadly allergic?'
That is a classic a-hole move. At the end of the day, we've just got to respect and be kind to one another. Despite the passenger's service dog and disability, OP had a very reasonable argument as to why she would not be sharing her compartment. And we support her for that.

And here is where the drama begins.
"She started yelling that I was an ableist asshole. One of the workers came past and asked what was going on. I provided proof that I booked the compartment and told her that I was allergic to dogs."
Now, there's no need for all that yelling, sis.
