So i was running to my 12:30 train home today from work, and I just get there as its leaving, but they stopped to pick up a wheelchair or something, so I ran my ass over to the OPEN door, WALKED onto the train which was barely full, and the conductors yells NO, GET OFF, YOU ARE LATE. and seriously PUSHES me off of the step, and shuts the door and drives off.....I could not believe it!!! I had to wait another hour for a train, what a jerk! (The jerk store mustve run of of him)

end rant

When I read "Metra conductors" I thought you were talking about Metra dash installation kits for car stereos!!!! "Metra" + conductors = something electrical

I read like the first four post before I realized this thread was about public transportation vs. an angry person with no car before realizing it had nothign to do with stereos.

😱
 
that ticks me off hearing that. That's totally unaccetable. And im wondering how old you are too. A lot of people seem to think it's ok or they can get away with bad behavior because it's at a kid or young adult. I would at the very least call and complain.

wow, That's really sad to hear... I've used metra my fair share of times over the years, and I've never had much trouble... It's very surprising to hear them shove you off... they don't even check your tickets until the train really starts going... the train was still there and the doors were open... why angry a customer for no good reason?
