metro chat

i usually talk about crazy people on the bus, but this was some of my train driver's running commentary on the way to the radio station wednesday morning (non-stop for 20 minutes):

"when my train stops like this it means the leader's stopped @ the platform...i was right, i can see him now. whooo..."

"believe it or not we're gonna wait here another minute...they gave us a little leeway so i'm just gonna roll on forward..."

"while we wait i'm gonna give you a little metro info... you just punch me up, that's how you talk to me..." (about the call boxes in train cars, i think- i was almost too busy writing this shit down)

"remember what i told you about that elevator maybe being out of service..."

"...and that trash. put. it. in. the. traaash...i'm not gonna tell you. i think you'll remember."

"good evening. oops, it's not evening for awhile yet..."

"if you're exiting, have a great day. or even if you aren't..."

damn lady. i'm glad you're glad, but it's not even 9am yet...
walk good.
