High school hallways

My high school has those double stair ways which are great, at limiting the amount of space you have to walk. On rainy days they always have to shut down one of the sections so I literally have to wait in line to go up and down the stair case. I have gotten elbowed so many times, I can't even count. Then there are always some people who think that they are to good for actually following the rules. They decided to go up the down and down the up. I have to duck and doge people coming at me and pushing from behind me. It becomes an art to seek out small gapes between people in the hall way. Couples always try and hold hands and walk through the busy hallways together and I just stop and they have to unlink.
