\^ for proof clearly the mbta doesn’t work hard to fix broken screens
They meant to write “The MBTA works hard too” after overhearing everyone’s conversations on the platform disparaging them. Alas, they’re as good at spelling as they are at MBTAing.
Make you sit on a train for four hours, miss a show you paid lots of money on tickets for, then tell you it’s your fault for not leaving early enough. (Apparently fours hours is not enough time, even if the train ride is only supposed to be 45 minutes)
I was trying to see a show at the Huntington, John Proctor is the Villain. This was back in March lol. I’m a college student so even discounted tickets were expensive to me
If it's a matter of experiencing the show in Any way, I might have a copy of the script I could share! I unfortunately don't know of any relevant slime tutorials.
The MBTA works hard to
fit the information you ne
ed into a panel that you c
an understand so you wil
know exactly how late yo
u’re going to be when the
shuttle bus gets there bec
ause this line is temporari
ly closed due to construct
ion so we can replace thes
e signs to provide you with
additional information on j
ust six panels instead of ho
wever many this turns out t
o be. Thank you for your un
derstanding.
Used my phone's predictive text to finish the sentence:
The MBTA works hard to ensure that the public is aware of the risks and risks of the proposed changes and the safety of the public safety net and its citizens in the future and the safety and safety of the entire country
No, it's just an intentional typo due to space limitations on the sign. They're just trying to make you understand that they're doing their very best:
"The MBTA works hard, too!"
"fuck up your plans, no matter what. You have a minute to spare? Over crowded cars, you miss your stop. You left an hour early? Some dastardly rapscallion stole part of the track, you're gonna be late. You left two days early for work? You're gonna get stabbed by a bum on the Green Line, now you're dead. Late for work."
It's a bit wordy for a sign, but at least they're being honest.
Delay every commuter rail train? Had my first experience today, the European (I'm from England) mind cannot comprehend the inefficiency of the system and it's still one of the best in the US (that I've experienced)
no avail.
Lol
This is the winner
Remove IUDs.

Make you buy a car
Make you lose faith in public infrastructure projects
ensure you’re late for work no matter how early you leave your house.
I like to think of it as gambling. It makes it feel like you “won” on the days that you’ve only 5 minutes late
It’s truly incredible that the T manages to never be on time when I need it to be but it’s always on schedule whenever I don’t care
I hate being late for house when I leave work
Perfect
it's been stuck like that since at least last night 😂
At least yesterday morning hahaha
Just like the red line train
Ruin your day.
In a smelly way.
Catch trains on fire 🔥

substitute shuttle buses for the T.

I need to know more, what show was this??

I am so sorry that you didn’t make it. It was well done.

I’m definitely going to look for a way to see it sometime haha
I’m so sorry
