okay earlier this week i bought a metrocard, put in 20 dollars cash. swiped it in all the turnstyles, didnt work. the guy said go thru the gate, i guess cuz he saw me just buy it? i thought fine, it will work another time, next morning same thing, didnt work. so then i ask the clerk what to do and he gave me an envelope where i have to return it for a refund. like as in MAIL IT IN. okay, there have been weeks where my literal last few dollars have gone to getting to and from work, id be screwed if this happenened on one of those days. the clerk said there was a system wide problem and this happened a lot. he was able to tell me tho after inputting something in his computer or whatever that my card had 20.75 on it. which i found strange considering i put in 20 bux for a new card.
does anyone know how long it will take to get my refund? and if i will even GET a refund? i have a strange feeling ill be waiting til im 75.
Pete, that’s my ideal woman. I’ll take a Latina Jew any day BUT not the Hasidic type. I don’t want to eat my carne burritos without cheese and sour cream for the rest of my life.
“dibs said he wanted something controversial”
DIBS also said he wanted a contortionist. But he hasn’t gotten that.
OH GIANT RANT ON THE MTA!!!!!!!!!!!
