From 9/8: Looks like the mayor lost another thousand votes this evening....(He's running out of votes to lose!)....The N-Judah tonight managed to outdo itself in terms of outrageously poor performance....And, according to the MUNI driver I spoke to, the idiots at Central Control were to blame, rather than the oft' targeted, much maligned old Boeing trains....The following is a brief narration of what I went through....While you're reading this, please note that a person could've actually flown to Los Angeles in a shorter period of time!!!!!! 6:15pm Arrived at Powell Station. Saw large anxious crowd. Became anxious myself. 6:30pm Gave up on the idea of finding a seat on an "Outbound" N-Judah". Hopped aboard an "Inbound" N-Judah in an attempt to actually, possibly, potentially get a seat at Embarcadero Station. 6:45pm Arrived at Embarcadero Station. Saw larger more upset crowd. Watched numerous "Cal Train Bound" N-Judah's carry a total of about three people towards Cal Train. Wondered why MUNI wastes it's time, resources, and money taking just a handful of people to Cal Train when Cal Train departs San Francisco only about once every hour after 7pm....Seems to be an even larger waste of money than the $3 million Breda trains!!!! 6:50pm Pointed out how stupid this seemed to a couple of the deaf, mute MUNI "agents" at Embarcadero Station. They wrote it down in their notebooks and didn't bother to turn around even one of the unneeded "Cal Train Bound" trains for the hundred or so people waiting on the platform... 6:55pm Boarded a "Cal Train Bound" N-Judah to the Folsom St. Stop in a renewed effort to actually find a seat. 7:00pm Now stuck in a "Cal Train Bound" between Embarcadero Station and the Eastern end of the tunnel!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 7:05pm Movement!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 7:15pm Finally boarded an "Outbound" N-Judah train! Noticed the driver was the same one who passed me at Powell Station at 6:15pm!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 7:20pm Stuck somewhere between Powell and Civic Center Stations. 7:30pm Still stuck! This time somewhere between Civic Center and Van Ness....Rumor has it they're having trouble with the track switch in the tunnel by the Outbound J-Church/N-Judah exit....Driver doesn't say much however, due to the fact that Central Control doesn't say much to the drivers!!!!!!!!!!! 7:35pm Contemplate being interviewed by a KRON Channel 4 News reporter at Van Ness Station....Too furious....Afraid I may swear too much and spontaneously combust!!!!!!!!!!!!! 7:45pm Come above ground behind Safeway....Realize it's now almost dark out!!!!!!!!!! Does anyone know what day it is now??????????? 8:00pm Arrive at 4th & Irving and start to very seriously contemplate what color scooter I'm going to buy and who else I, and thousands of others, will be able to vote for in the next election.... Footnote: Watching the basically positive review of MUNI tonight on Channel 2 News tonight was a joke....Did they just assume the evening commute would be fine also????? For these lapdog journalists to even start to think that MUNI is "out of the woods" is an insult to all daily MUNI Metro riders who have been putting up with this madness every week for the last twenty years....not to mention the last two weeks....In their lazy efforts, they are missing the larger story here....Central Control and the entire MUNI Metro system needs a complete 100% overhaul!!!! Until that time arrives, the complaints from MUNI Metro riders will continue....
