The Lethargic Conductor Lays His Game Down in the Quiet Car

The train pulled into Bloomfield this morning, and the Kleenex rituals began. Synchronized sneezes and productive coughs rang out from every other seat. Could these selfish beasts not take a sick day or work from home? 

The consistently rude, disengaged and lethargic conductor kicked us out of the front car just now. All the cars on the train are packed, but never mind that.  He's got some ladies he needs to lay his game on. Priorities, man!  


Can someone please explain to me why both the A/C and the heat are on? Only in a NJ Transit Bizzaro World is this possible.  It gets better.  Today, we are left to enforce quiet car rules on our own, despite the highly delicate atmosphere of class warfare that such a thing entails in such an economically diverse area.  Today's skies should be sunny with a slight chance of aggravated assault.
