fucked up and bullshit - day 6

You know the opening scene in Office Space where Peter is sitting in traffic going to work and each lane he thinks will go fast ends up going slow once he chooses it (and the old man with a walker ends up going faster than him)? That's my luck with this fucking E train.

On my way home from work tonight, I wait about 6 minutes for a train to arrive, only to see that it's the V (local) train. The operator , verbatim, "advises to use this train as the E train is delayed. Transfer to the E at another station..".

So I get to the station where I can transfer to an E, decide not to transfer because the E isn't on the platform, and I'm reading my book and have a seat and all, and lo and behold the V starts moving at a snail's pace. 4 -- FOUR -- fucking E (or F, which is also express) trains go by before I'm even 3 stops from my destination. I must have read the same paragraph 6 times.

I'll try very hard to make this a common theme, but the E train is fucked up and bullshit.
