Open Letter to the L Train

Dear L Train,

What the fuck is your problem?

Have you recently broken up with the J Train and are now hitting the bottle? That would make sense, and obviously you have my sympathies, but events in your personal life are clearly affecting your performance at work.

Is there something you're not telling us? I'm willing to believe that a stalled train can shut down 80% of the entire route. But you've been offering this excuse three times over the past four days. That's the equivalent of needing time off from work to go to your grandmother's funeral three times.

Is the staff just uncovering multiple terrorist plots? Are people just getting more sick while riding you? Are you going through some midlife train crisis where you realize you'd rather be the Staten Island Ferry? What gives?

Now, I mean, I don't want to harp on this, and I do know there must be some trouble at home, but you need to get your act together.

Seriously, what the fuck?

That guy who rides you,

James "Do Your Job!" Comtois
