Get what you pay for
So after a string of car-related mishaps (none my fault of course) I dropped the car at the body shop for the second time in a week, and hopped on the 21 to get to work. Two blocks later the bus engine starts making a really loud noise. The driver pulls over and turns off the ignition. “Sorry,” she says, “the transmission is overheating and we need to stop for a while.”
Everybody just looks around and sort of shrugs, no big deal. We sit there in total silence. Pretty soon the guy behind me sort of sighs and says under his breath, “Well, I guess you get what you pay for.”
I wasn’t totally clear whether he was referring to Metro Transit and their vehicle investments, or himself and his transit investment.
