Someone obvious MBTA plant will start chastizing everyone for complaining about horrible service.

Not fatally injuring anyone else is an insultingly low standard to expect. The hostility the passengers were treated was inexcusable and frankly very unsafe. I'm afraid this sounds like the MBTA's emergency response procedure, though. Don't tell riders anything and yell at them for not knowing what's going on and then charge them for the privilege of being treated so poorly.Mehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16020626077257130088noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6009621322873649271.post-28239583460283736392007-08-26T11:21:00.000-05:002007-08-26T11:21:00.000-05:00Lighten up buddy.
