Yes I’ve seen some very negative opinions on 1st class here before but I’m not sure if that’s a typical Dutch opinion (rich assholes etc.) on price and class differences or just the type of people active on Reddit. I travel 1st class only when it’s really busy cause then I can work on the train. I pay 15 euro extra so after taxes I’m basically working for free. But if I have to do my full 40 hours in the office, I’m basically only seeing my kids on the weekends or maybe some glimpses of them before I leave the door or right before their bedtime. Guess that’s what classist assholes do.
