My "encounter" with MTS "Security" in San Diego |

Posted by Railman718 on Wed Oct 17 21:53:50 2007 Apperently its the same out here some people just DONT know the rules..We got a great Idea KC BBQ(GREAT Place that food is slammin) over in the seaport village section of the city. I was just snapping away most of the times we was on the trolley,or waiting for it (got a lot of pictures on the laptop but dont know how to post em). At The City Collage trolley station while waiting for the Orange Line to take us out out there a "security" person says to me "uh excuse me sir no picture taking".. Now mind you there was one right across the street who looked right at me and didnt say a word,the same guy who earlier gave us dierctions at the same place. Of coruse he got in the way of a great shot but anyway i wasn't going out here to snap away if i didnt know the rules, but of coruse i did. I told him "are you sure about that?" "Am i breaking any laws?" Wanting him to say more put his foot in his mouth more.. He said "those are the Rules".. I told him in a nice manner(we as nice as i was going to get) that i was very well aware of the rules and i would love for him to tell me which paragraph or article it states that in the MTS rules of conduct.. Caught him off gaurd with that then i had a ace up my sleeve i was about to play.. Then his supervisor got off the BlueLine trolley comes up and asks what is the problem.. He said"hes NOT supposed to be taking any pictures of the trolleys right?" Before the supervisor could answer i took out my pass and showed it to him and said.. "I Work for Metropolitain Transit Authority Rapid Transit Operations over in New York City im here on vacation do you think i would DO this if it was against the rules?" "With me being in New York and all im sure you know i would be aware of how you people out here in San Diego run things right? In one breath the supervisor said.. "Oh great glad to have you out here and theres no policy that IM aware of that you cant take pictures enjoy your stay".. I just looked at the guard who started this nonsense and walked away,point proved all he could do is glare at me and that even ticked off his supervisor more who told him to "get over here".. Off coruse my people all thought i was going to get locked up.. they was even acting like they didnt know me thats cool paybacks coming to them heh heh. On the way back ran into his supervior again and he even apologized to me telling me "that person should know the rules" and he hopes that "this did not upset me" Told him no problem at all im sure you "reinstructed him" So it can happen to anybody even a Train Operator on vacation.. I hope you all like the shots i took so be gentle when i post them ok? ;o) |
