[01:36] IsambardPrince Except Bobbi's paws are white. [01:37] MinceR :3 [01:44] IsambardPrince MinceR, I was happy to see the bus driver enforcing the fare rules today. [01:44] IsambardPrince A couple of Muslim women got on wearing those hijab things or whatever you call them, didn't pay. [01:44] IsambardPrince And the bus driver said "Are you going to come back and pay?" So one of them did, and then she says "What about your friend?". So the friend does. [01:45] IsambardPrince The driver was getting ready to stop the bus and tell them to get off. [01:45] IsambardPrince The other day I saw a Latino man wait for the bus to stop then he tried sneaking on while the exit door was open. [01:45] IsambardPrince I shouted at the bud driver, "Hey, that guy didn't pay!" [01:45] IsambardPrince So the guy tried to say that he "forgot his wallet". [01:46] IsambardPrince And then got off at the next intersection. [01:46] IsambardPrince I mean, the system is bleeding red ink. [01:46] IsambardPrince The bus is cheap. [01:46] IsambardPrince If some people should pay then everyone who is able and required to should pay. [01:46] IsambardPrince There's actually a lot of legitimate ways to get a reduced fare or disabled card. [01:46] IsambardPrince Everyone with a Medicare or Medicaid card can get a half price transit pass. [01:47] IsambardPrince Everyone on food stamps or WIC pays half price. [01:47] IsambardPrince And low income elderly or disabled people get a free ride pass with a letter from SSA or being low income and over 65. [01:47] IsambardPrince So there's lots of ways to legitimately get a reduced or free pass. [01:48] IsambardPrince Reduced only costs $1 and you get a free transfer within 2 hours, which can be a tap on any other Pace or CTA bus or CTA rail entry. [01:48] IsambardPrince My mom acts like only people who are poverty stricken would ride the bus. [01:48] IsambardPrince I told her my doctor at Northwestern Medicine rode the bus. [01:49] IsambardPrince I said "That's $1200 a month she didn't have to spend on a car instead of student loan repayment." ● Oct 01 [02:28] IsambardPrince MinceR, I got Kiki a hammock for the window coming from Amazon.
