Well, what book would you read to little kids if you were general manager of the MBTA?

It's Nice That She Does That And All, But Meanwhile ...
.
Wonder if one of her assistants
walked into the room as she was reading, then interrupted to tell her there was a disabled train on the Red Line.
Nailed it!!!! The REDLINE!!!
Nailed it!!!! The REDLINE!!!!!!!
If the chief executive....
... is involved when a train breaks down, then the organization is pretty badly borked. A chief executive is not supposed to be spending her time dealing with broken trains; a chief executive is supposed to be dealing with whatever shortcomings in process, organization, staffing, training, operational management, capital planning, etc. are leading to a higher-than-acceptable number of broken trains.
I met Ms. Scott in her days
I met Ms. Scott in her days as head of RIPTA, and I was impressed, I hope she's able to make progress with fixing the T.
Meanwhile, it would be poetic justice if she took the T to this school and ended up getting stuck on a delayed bus or train.
Don't Let the Pigeon Drive
Don't Let the Pigeon Drive the Bus!----
Hell, maybe a pigeon could do a better job on the 230 Montello!!! It's damn worth a try!!!
Appropriate
it's what I'm thinking when riding the T; 'C'mon, you can make it ! Just 50 more feet and we're in the station!'
The Little Engine That Could (AND DOES) Break Down
So many potential jokes, so little time...
You know what this means...
