DC Metro We Love You!

Well, DC and Maryland, this is my first official posting as Buschick301. Unfortunately I am not a happy camper right now.

Metro is facing a budget shortfall so therefore we the riders have to suffer. You know us, right Metro, we are the ones making it possible for you to exist! We are the hard-working people who have promised the people who pay our salaries that we would be to work on time every day despite the fact that we don't own cars. We depend on you Metro to get us where we need to be at a specific time. Now that you want to raise fares - there is a reason why we ride the bus/train, we can't afford a car payment! - and also cut service! Before you decide to cut service please keep in mind that most of us travel quite a distance to get to work each day. If you don't start service until 8:00 a.m. that puts most of us in a real bind. We need our jobs Metro and we need you!

Oh and while I'm ranting and raving let me please ask the driver of the 59 Mongomery Village to Shady Grove bus to PLEASE WAIT FOR THE RIDERS TO GET OFF THE TRAIN BEFORE YOU PULL OFF at 11:35 PM! We have to wait another 45 mins until you come back and baby it's cold outside!! There...that felt good.

I promise my future posts will be more light-hearted and funny. I experience something worth writing about daily on my way to not one but two jobs every day. I can't wait to share them with you!
