Franklin Forge Park Line Late Again….Another day of hell at work

Filed under: Franklin Forge 495 Line, The Boston MBTA — Boston7977 @ 10:27 am

Do you have any idea how awful it is for a manager to walk into work late?

The train was 12 minutes late. But if you are a working mom who shuttles kids and has things to the wire and no earlier trains are an option, THIS STINKS.

MBTA, get the 95% back to where it was. And please, if you think 12 minutes late contributes to your increasing on-time performance (previous blog with their graphs), you are wrong.

The DEFINITION OF ON TIME: is the train arrives and departs when the schedule says. Not before and leaves people behind and not after.

  2. Dear Boston Commuter –

    My name is Mitchell Esteller and I am a senior Journalism major at Northeastern University. I’m currently enrolled in a course that focuses on reinventing the news, by way of the internet. For our final paper, we are to write a profile on a blogger who we think is an exceptional job.

    I’d like the option of writing the profile about you.

    Please let me know if you are willing to participate.

    Thanks the time.
