I'm not complaining, really I'm not ...
The MTA does an amazing job every day moving millions of people to where they need to go, but this morning was just full of annoyance.
I arrived on my subway platform to find it already crowded. Not a good sign. No surprise, the first two trains to arrive were too crowded to board. I watched in amazement with my fellow commuters as a jittery looking yuppie mother shoved her child's stroller and subsequently herself on to another train that I decided wasn't worth the effort, and just narrowly missed crushing her child or herself in the doors. When I finally wedged myself into a train, it was in a car where there was no AC. Fortunately, though late, I arrived before my boss. A small mercy.
There was, of course, no explaination for the overcrowding. *sigh* MTA, I love you. You get me where I'm going, most days without too much fuss. But please, pretty please with sugar on top, run a few more trains on my line during the morning rush.
