I can't imagine they'd give an answer that didn't involve the same tired excuses and outright lies. Why bother?

Yep. Serious reaction impending. Fire his ass, rehire him a few weeks later quietly, pay him for the time he was away.

You're DRIVING A BUS, dude- there's nothing in that paper that can't wait an hour.

9:20 at Pentagon, 14 minute wait for a train of EITHER kind. Utterly ridiculous.

As overstuffed as the trains have been lately due to the reduced service (my Blue train this morning was packed to the gills), one can't help but worry about having a door open and people literally being forced out while in motion just because they're packed in so tight.

I was on the train that derailed (very back of the last car). I was actually pleased that they got us out of there as quickly as they did- it helped that the last four cars hadn't yet cleared the platform edge, so we didn't have to walk down the tunnel or any of that- they just opened the doors (manually) and let us out. I assume people further up walked to another car further down, but I wasn't all that interested in hanging around to watch.

To find two days later that Metro approves a rate hike, despite this derailment, the decrepit elevators and escalators, the filth, the poor service... weren't the last few rate hikes supposed to resolve this stuff? Why is this one any different?
