Laid Off

So I haven't been blogging as much as you can see. I was laid off and haven't been taking the Muni as often as before. Just wanted to share there is a play I just bought tickets to, it's about MUNI!! HAHA. I can't wait to see it, is written by a Muni driver who claims to have seen everything that can go on on the MUNI. Uhh I think I should be in the play. Well lets see if I will have some, "that happened to me!" moments. If you want more info on the play goto: www.goldstar.com and type in MUNI in the search engine.

How long does it take to get from one side o the city to the other?

2 days in a row now, not 1 hour not 1 and a half hour, YES! 2 Freakin Hours!!! Damn Muni, why do you always break down??? Fix the muni system before spending money on damn cameras at the bus stops.

I'm back!

Ok I know it's been a while and I guess it's a good thing right? Hasn't been any abnormal crazy incidents lately, just the normal crazys. I thought I was on a roll, until today! ...

On the 16AX going to work, reading my newspaper, I hear this guy on the phone, "your girlfriend called me..." I hear pieces of the conversation, "I just want to make sure it's ok..." I couldn't hear the rest, ok I thought whatever. Then all of a sudden BBBBBBEEEERIT! Uhhh... WTF did that really happen??? He FARTED right in my face! HIS ASS was a inch from my FACE! OMG!!
I was in shock! Then I thought oh god this must be Karma for all the times I farted in public. I started laughing to myself. A little later this man decided to sit right next to me when the lady next to me left and I scooched over. He smashes me against the wall, I am closterphobic at this point. The man then starts to close his eyes and talk to himself. His lips were moving but no voice, then he starts doing these weird hand moves like he's praying. It was sooo weird, I was trapped and I couldn't take it anymore. I excused myself out and sat in a empty seat right across from him, where HE COULD HAVE MOVED TO! Then I stared at him the rest of the 5 minute ride, the whole time he had his eyes closed talking to himself and doing weird hand jestures. I look around, am I the only one seeing this???

Crazy people!

Lets keep this one short and sweet. Person decides to walk into the subway tunnel btw Powell and Civic Center delays ALL muni underground for hours I get stuck with hundreds of riders underground, AGAIN late to work by half an hour. Hurray for muni

Last weekend

So last weekend I was taking the 38 Geary boarding at La Playa. I waited 5 minutes then decided to call 6sfmuni. The person on the line told me next bus will come in 1 minute. I was like wow great, I'll be on time and the bus is on time for once! Umm one minute goes by, 2 minutes, 3, 4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11...ok 15 minutes! WTF where is the bus! I called the sf muni line again so when is the bus coming? 15 minutes. WHAT!!! the last person said 1 minute, so you are telling me I have to wait another 15 minutes making it half an hour! So I'm pissed at this point, then I see a 38 bus SITTING! yes SITTING in front of me, umm if a bus is missing why the hell are they not starting up the next bus asap! What really pissed me off was a freakin TAX paid muni employee was fuckin sitting in his truck in the Safeway parking lot NOT DOING HIS JOB! He is supposed to mark down on his chart if the buses were arriving on time. I went u to him and asked him what happened to the missing bus? He said, "you missed it it was here 5 minutes ago. WHAT???? I was standing here for 20 minutes NO 38 came! He just stared at me. This guy was obviously just sitting on his fuckin ass daydreaming in his truck. Can I get paid to sit on my ass in a parking lot too! 735026 was on this guys truck,I'm tempted to report this guy, but why? Muni is just going to send me a stupid automated system saying they appreciate me writing in and do nothing.

Another, "this only happens to me!" moment...

OK so my friend is bugging me to put this story up, I was hesitant since it's not technically a muni sucks incident. I was running with some friends trying to catch muni and I was yelling to them hold on my sirt is falling!! I was holding onto my skirt through my long sweater and all I felt I was grabbing was fabric. I didn't know how far down my skirt really was. My friend held the door on muni for me and I just made it on huffing and puffing. Relief, let go of my fabric in hand to hold the bar, and all of a sudden my skirt was around my ankles in front of the whole muni!!! OH MY GOD I grabbed it quick and pulled it up. People were cracking up and I also got few dirty looks, WOW!

Rewind

So I haven't ben blogging for a while, doesn't mean I don't have stories. Lets rewind, long story short here we go...

Probably nothing abnormal for regular muni riders, was on the 71 after work and I heard these 2 guys talking really loud, they went on and on the whole ride getting louder and louder. At one point people thought the 2 guys were fighting! The bus driver we had was on training so there were 2 drivers on the bus, did any of them say anything? Nope! One bus driver kept looking back but didn't do anything. Then a frustrated older woman was about to leave the bus she said to the 2 guys, "see you 2 are sooo loud you finally got attention of the bus driver who is looking back at you 2, are you guys proud of yourself for talking so loudly?" Umm I was thinking to myself, the bus driver don't give a shit. The 2 guys started yelling at the lady to mind her own business and they argued with the lady until she got off. Next day on the 71 another fight broke out between some girls and a lady. Apparently the lady was trying to get through to the back and bumped into the girls. The girls flipped out because they were being stupid, started calling the lady a bitch and yelling, "you don't know how to say excuse me!"

Today, just got home from the Giants game, N Judah- I smell something sour, umm Bum juice I smell, gross!!! I should be used to the smell but NO I was gagging the whole way home! Then some crazy guy came on with his Grateful Dead shirt on. Ok Dead head is on he must be on some kinda drug, I wondered what. I had my music going in my ear and couldn't hear him, I saw him bothering people on the bus then swaying then dancing. He looks my way, starts walking over, great! He sits across from me starts talking to some people who ignored him. I was sitting on the outside seat and had an empty seat next to the window. YES he came over and sat right next to me. Then he proceeds to stick his foot up on the rail in front of us then I give him a nasty look and he saids something and takes it down. Don't forget I have my music on, have no clue what the fuck he's saying to me. I thought if I keep it on he would stop bothering me, ummm nope! Taps me on the shoulder what are you? I was like what? He said where are you from? I said here, haha. Then he said your heritage I mean, I said Chinese. Then he tapped me again when I stuck my headphones back in. He said, "I study intuition" and he smiled, WTF is he talking about?? I just nodded and smiled. Thank god his phone rang then he sat next to some other person, talked to them and when he was leaving he tapped me again and said something and smiled. Ummm weirdo! Another passenger and I started cracking up. he didn't smell like bum juice, his nails were clean, he was clean, there was no harm in humoring this guy. That killed some 10 minutes of my long 1hr commute.
