Why is it everytime i see them, they are looking down somewhere? What is down there? A book? A magazine they're hiding? <BR/><BR/>I want to know.

I too have seen blatent fare cheating going on right in front of them and they just watch... It's worse in the city than in the suburbs. <BR/>2. Why don't they replace the "free ride" handicap/bike gates at most stations with the style they put in at the Dublin station? There the handicap gate is a large pay-gate with a swinging section that moves. Bikes and people needing extra room pay and go right throught the larger gate, no need/possibility to cheat. Also I've seen the station agent at Dublin prevent people from attempting to cheat.... Consistancy, it's a good thing - you'd think they'd have some.<BR/>-AndyAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17347513.post-1155427098699634622006-08-12T16:58:00.000-07:002006-08-12T16:58:00.000-07:00When will we ever see a station agent willing to s...When will we ever see a station agent willing to say or do anything.

As a parent, I know that I have to lead by example. It really bothers me to see other parents who seem to have no desire to teach their kids right from wrong, especially when my daughter is going to have to attend school with those kids, likely befriend them, and then be influenced by their poor behavior.<BR/><BR/>Good job mom, you just taught your kids how to steal.Joshhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12703513987899992771noreply@blogger.com
