The Fail Road Strikes Again…..

This time they really fucked it up. There was a disabled train in the tunnel. Or was it three? I don’t think we’ll ever get the real story. I left the office a little after 5PM….I got home at 8:05PM. Just another day on the Fail Road.

It was about 5:05PM when I found myself on the way to the Fail Road….I cross 34th, I see the 34th Street exit was closed, we could tell by the gates. So we sheeple walk around to 33rd (The “Garden” Entrance)….we go down the stairs…that’s closed too.

There were no announcements. And more and more people are filling the concourse. Where are the people from the Fail Road? Nowhere to be found. Instead, we’re penned in like fucking animals Standing there like a herd, staring at a fucking gate. This was for more than an hour. During that time, there was nothing from the Fail Road. Police officers walked by, claimed ignorance (of course). We saw a guy with a Fail Road management badge pass by…he was running like he was being chased by bulls in Pamplona. I bet he was running…to do nothing. Fucking bastard.

Finally, at around 6:10 the gates were opened. And, as expected, the sheeple all rushed the gate. They also rushed the gate when they saw it open about a foot. There was a train that came into Penn (maybe it was the people from the disabled train(s)?). The cop behind the gate was yelling at them to get back. It was like yelling at the the wall. These situations bring out the worst in people. The way the Fail Road handles these, it’s understandable.

The Fail Road is a total, complete and absolute disgrace. Why does this always happen? My problem is not the delay itself but it’s the response. It’s like they are re-inventing the fucking wheel every time there is some sort of glitch. Is every delay that occurs the FIRST TIME THERE HAS EVER BEEN A FUCKING DELAY? HOW CAN THIS BE?

I would love to know who made the calls to close Penn and to not make announcements. In short, I would love to know who was the person who told thousands of people to go fuck themselves. This person should be fired, their benefits rescinded, and they should be dragged through the streets so we can tar and feather them for they are a complete failure as an employee.

This will happen again. I know it will. Bring on the fare increases.

FUCK THE FAIL ROAD!! AND FUCK EVERYONE WHO WORKS THERE. ASSHOLES! ALL OF YOU!

Invalids on the Stairs

I would like the thank the morons on the steps going down to Penn that made me late for the 5:04 today. Yeah I left the office late, yeah there was a crowd of people to push through and all that other crap. If not for these gimps on the steps, I could have made that train.

Why are people so goddamn stupid? If you can’t wal
k normally, THEN WHY THE HELL ARE YOU TAKING THE GODDAMN STAIRS….TAKE THE GODDAMN ESCALATOR!!! What the hell are you trying to prove? That you can hold up almost a hundred of your fellow commuters? That you can make a lot of people angry? That you can make people late?
There must 50 or 60 steps on that staircase. It’s hard for people who can walk NORMALLY. What the hell are you morons doing there? If you can’t even walk STRAIGHT or you have a goddamn CANE….YOU SHOULDN’T BE ANYWHERE NEAR THE FUCKING STEPS.
Next time I see one of these old bags, I swear I will throw th
em down the steps. It’ll take care of two things at once. And, I won’t be late for my train.
No I won’t leave earlier. I was held up because the elevator in my building took a half hour to get to my floor. On top of that there was the usual lead feet on 7th avenue who act like they have NEVER SEEN A TALL BUILDING IN THEIR LIVES. MOVE OVER YOU ASSHOLES!!!! People have better things to do than walk around you.
On my shit list:
– Tourists
– Old People
– Slow people
– Stupid people
– Cellphones
– BlackBerries
– Fail Road Management
