Muni Whirwind

Outer sunset to 24th and Guerreo, this should be a 50minute ride on muni tops! Like usual I give myself an extra 15-20 minutes to get somewhere on muni knowing something will always happen! I look up what buses to take on sfmuni.com and what time they should be coming. Muni, why is it always a guessing game? Why do you say buses will come during a certain time and take it off the schedule without updating your site or updating your call center (6-sfmuni), this is why riders HATE YOU! So saying that let me vent my build up of frustrations with you today muni, partially my fault and majority yours. I leave the house at 3:00pm go to the bus stop a block away and wait, and wait, and wait. Ok the bus should of came at 3:14. I think I would call translink and figure out if it's normal to have to tap the card 5-10 times before it works. The answer I got, you need to pay us $5 to get a new card. Uhh, this card is defective why do I need to pay MORE money to muni for a defective card muni sent me? I have no bents, tears, chip is not falling out, perfect looking card, obviously NOT MY FAULT! I would think the smart thing they can do is send me a new card on them since it's their mistake and in the mean time let me use my defective card until I get the new card, NO! I would have to send my defective card to a lab where they will test my card to see if it's a defect or it was caused by me, that meant I would be out of a card for 4 days and I would have to pay out of pocket for muni when I have already paid them $20+ for my translink card. And if they decide somehow it's my fault I am out of a card and forced to pay them more money for a replacement. Does this make ANY Sense??? This is a great scam muni. You know what I will just keep my defective card and piss everyone behind me off and make the buses I get on even later. People standing behind me while I stand at the entrance tapping my card 10plus times trying to make it work, don't get pissed at me, blame it on Muni. After this conversation with translink the bus is still not here! Really?? So now knowing they want more money form me to ride a bus that is not showing up, standing in the freezing cold, my blood is boiling! I call SFmuni and chewed this poor lady out and apologized to her at the end because it's not her fault muni sucks! 3:14 bus never showed up, I boarded the bus at 3:45, then missed my stop (this part my fault!). Then I had to backtrack and finally got to my destination almost 2 hours later! A 45 minute ride became a 2 hr ride. Going home going the same route, I find out the 48 does not go back to 46th and Quintara past 7pm. Freakin awsome! Thank god I bumped into a friend who gave me a ride from West Portal, thanks K! And this is why muni BITES!

Funny had to share.. I'm not alone...

Why I hate Muni you would ask...

Waiting at Duboce and Church, 20 minutes still no N Judah. Finally I see light in the tunnel! Oh no it's the J. 30 minutes later, FINALLY! I get on to a packed N, ok used to this. Uhh are we going? 10 minutes later..are we going or not? Damn door broke! Can you please let us know if it's fixable or not!! I'm guessing after 15minutes of standing around, it's not going to be fixed anytime soon. Get off bus to catch the 71. I turn around and I see the N Judah moving!! WTF!! I walk up to Filmore and Haight and what do I see passing by? Of course the 71L!! WTF!! God 15 minutes later I am finally on my way home. How long was I stuck in one place?? Almost an hour!! MUNI That's why you suck!

Rude!

Rude! Cold Hearted, Ignorant! Why? I don't understand how these young people on the bus sitting in the front or even back see an older person, OR pregnant person, OR even a lady with a child on her hip and decides to pretend not to see these people who obviously needs to sit more than they do but they don't get their asses up! What is wrong with these people??? Seriously What is wrong??

CAll 6SFMUNI for the wrong Bus information!

That is exactly what happened, thanks alot 6-SF-MUNI! waited at Kearny and 3rd for one hour waiting for the 71! I called the number, asked them when will the bus come to Kearny and 3rd? 17 minutes was the response, Ok I wait. 30 minutes goes by, call again, uhh where is the 71 that is supposed to be at Kearny and 3rd? Oh it's late, will be there in 8 minutes. Wait wait, another 20 minutes goes by, a couple next to me asked what bus are you waiting for? I was FREEZING in a skirt shaking in the cold for almost an hour! I said 71. They said oh it doesn't stop here. I said WHAT?? I asked the F-Line driver and she said it's true doesn't stop there. WHY didn't 6-SF-MUNI TELL ME!! 1 Fucking hour wasted!

A good one I forgot to blog

Bonus Blog today! This happened a few weeks ago but I forgot to blog it.
So I got on the N Judah and bought my pass, looked at it and it stated 5:30 expiration. I stuck it in my messy purse and went to the mall. Then I had to hop back on at Powell to go to Civic Center, I knew my pass was good till 5:30 so I decided to go through the emergency gate instead of walking all the way around to the toll booth. I saw the ticket cop standing there and I flashed my transfer to him. He YELLS at me, Let me see your ID! I was like, what are you talking about?? Then he SCREAMS again, Let me see your ID! and I said FOR WHAT! He yells, "FOR WHAT? This is the wrong date!!" I look at it, OH! I dug through my purse and found the correct date transfer. I flash it at him, he yells at me again, "LET ME SEE YOUR ID!" I said for WHAT this is the correct date and it's till 5:30! He starts arguing with me saying, "Do you work here or do I work here?" Then he threatens me, either I give you a ticket now or you go and pay! I said again, it's 5:30 not 5:00! He doesn't listen, threatens to give me a ticket again! So I didn't know what to do at that point and went to the toll booth to pay. I stood there digging for change, too me a good 3 minutes and he comes over, GO! GO!, I said, what???

Apparently my friend explained to the other ticket cop my ticket is 5:30 not 5:00 and the ticket lady agreed, this ticket is 5:30. The guy was wrong! and he had to let me go. He had the nerve to ask my friend why I was so angry!

Bitch Slapped!

Yes I was Bitch slapped today! Right on the right of my cheek and almost got my eye. BY who you might be asking? By the damn Muni Door!! I stepped down half way and WHAM! door slammed right on my face! I was in shock holding my face, then said Oww! and the guy behind me kinda laughed then said are you ok? ha, does it look like that felt good buddy? God I wonder if those back doors have timers on them or the damn bus drivers control when they close?
