Also don't stop immediately at the bottom of the escalator (especially if in a group)

I don't live up there but I hate this everywhere in every situation. "I entered the door at the grocery store, 4 inches past the threshold is surely the place to immediately stop and start checking my list and getting my bearings"

I hate that so much. One of my biggest peeves.

Half of em get all snippy too when you bump into them or pass "too close" for their liking 😂

I just stop and stare. Most get the idea.

I tend to just run into them because I never consider that somebody is going to stop inside the threshold (or on that little metal plate on the escalator, whatevers relevant)
