Awesome

Awesome informative article. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.174.29.246 (talk) 04:46, 14 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Agreed. We were talking about this at work. This was helpful in explaining the context of their work. --Daysleeper47 (talk) 17:59, 9 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Cleanup

I removed all the text from the announcements, as well as the problems section. The announcements are now gone because they were removed from the Japanese version of the article for being useless, and that holds true here as well. Also, both the announcements and the problems sections were pure WP:OR. The Sources section, which mentions the translation, is inappropriate. — HelloAnnyong ^{(say whaaat?!)} 17:56, 11 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Title

"Pusher" reminds me of "drug-dealer". Is this job only part of Japanese culture? If so, I think it is best to move the article to Oshiya. Heroeswithmetaphors (talk) 02:01, 27 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I think in light of the other subway pusher (I.e. the ones in NYC, from December 2012), that perhaps a change of title may be appropriate. Thomas Chongruk (Thomas Chongruk) 1:42, 31 December 2012 (UTC)

New York City Subway had Pushers

In the movie Sergeant York, George Tobias plays the character "Pusher" Ross, a soldier from NYC. In the film, he has to explain his nickname to Alvin. So, he describes how he pushes passengers onto the crowded subway cars during rush hours. I don't know if there really was a "Pusher" Ross who was a friend of York's but assuming no big exaggerations or unfounded historical foulups, that means that the NYC Subways had "pushers" before WWI. There may be other evidence of pushers on the NYC subways from other movies set in NYC, perhaps even into the 1940s. AdderUser (talk) 16:25, 30 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
