NYC Subway Struggles

[EndDomination]

In my adult life, I have never missed a train.

Now buses?What you know bout using the app, seeing 4 minutes till the bus leaves, and it pulls off 2 minutes early?

What you know bout seeing 4 minutes till the bus leaves, you show up with 2 minutes, but traffic blocks you from crossing the street, and you miss the bus?

When you travel in NYC, you need to leave extra early. If I had to be at work by 8, I'm out the house 5:30.

Always.

Once you use the MetrCard you are at the mercy of the MTA

The shuttle between Time Square and Grand Central known for embarrassing nikkas

The walkway from the 7 train to the A,C,E always smells like ass

When you sitting down and the train starting to fill up and some obese motherfukka sits between you and another person

When the train is standing room only and you have the 1 a$$hole who stands with his back on the pole

I take the bus into the Port Authority and I walk from 8th to 7th Avenue to avoid the long ass walkway even when it rains or snows

I don't get it, I thought NYC's public transportation was the envy of North America?

The problem is that NYC transportation system has to move millions of people every day and do so at a very high volume which puts considerable strain on the trains, the tracks, the subways and the riders. On top of that there are so many factors that can jam up the commute like weather, crime, malfunctions, etc.

LMAO at the dude who keeps getting pushed back onto the train when he's trying to get off
As bad as NYC can get at least for the most part people wait until everyone exits until they get on. its common sense and courtesy. live in china bros

as miserable as it can be the NYC subway system is pretty great - it runs 24 hours and covers the most distance out of any system in the country (maybe the world?) but if you live somewhere deep in the boros and you're looking at 2-3 transfers, or a bus ride to the train, and have to work in the city - you could be looking at 2 hours. especially with delays. when i was coming into the city from queens village it was like 2 hours

i don't want to be super rich , i just wanna be straight to the point where i don't have to take the MTA again (unless I want to). having the money for a car and being able to freely park it everywhere you go...
id much rather be stuck in traffic in a car than underground on the train

It is.... but they do numerous construction projects, derailments (*rare), train traffic, trains being rerouted to a local track when you need express speeds.

There are always issues....

When the train works and you can get a decent seat it's

When the shyt is fukked up..... AC broke, 100 heat tunnels in the summer, dirty smelly bums, slow trains, the occasional fighting and or stabbing. it's fukked up...
