That's just plain stupid, to get off at Tompkinsvillle and walk to the ferry. Not because of what that walk actually entails. In effect, it's simply farebeating. Every single aspect of farebeating is bad news for the city. I really don't enjoy being around folks who do it. I am rooting for those people to arrive at the ferry terminal only to hear the jolly toot of a boat already on its way. They don't deserve to enjoy the benefits of happenstance or otherwise smoothly functioning multimodal transit dynamics. Screw `em, man. And don't tell me they ain't making enough money to pay a couple bucks each way to get to work. Better to arrive on the job with the innate pride of accomplishment at getting there like a man should go to work than to contemplate the lameness of how you're a sneaky bastard and how you have to be a sniveling cheat just going to work.Seriously. We aren't talking about a lot of money here. It's not like rent or car insurance or credit card debt. It's bus fare, dammit. |
