So The Other Day I Was A Turnstile Jumper

Filed under: Academic,Mundane Or Sublime,Sports — admin @ 1:23 pm

I jumped turnstiles the other day. First time since my teen years. It was 9july. My card expires the 10th. So it still should be good. Nope. Coded wrong or something. MBTA authorities just kept scanning me through but none of them were willing to fix my card for me. One of the times I was in quite a hurry. I stood there waiting while the MBTA authority tended to the needs of someone who couldn’t get her credit card to work. More and more I waited so I finally just gave up and turned around looked for the fastest walker and stood behind her. She swiped her card, and walked on through. I walked on through right behind her. No one seemed to care. Me either. I figured if they saw me on camera and tried to freak out, maybe then they’ll fix my card! So I was a turnstile jumper for a day and a half.
