City rail is good.

Today I caught a train from Chatswood to the city and because I have a weekly ticket to Hornsby I just automatically got on and I forgot to buy a ticket for the city. This has happened once before and I was lucky that my friend Brett told me that there was no machines at Redfern so I told the guy that there was no machines at Redfern and he let me through, and yes I did go and buy a ticket after this, I promise I am not intentionally trying to rip off cityrail. But this time I was not quite sure what I would do as the man had sen me put my ticket in the machine and it had com up not valid, yes it took me to this point to realise what I had done. As he approached me I was thinking ‘oh no what am I going to say, I wonder if he will believe my story’ but all he did was open the gate and say “sorry mam” without even looking at my ticket. It was very lucky so I am not complaining, in fact probably, I ma the only person who has realy benefited from Cityrail staff in the last couple of months so I just want to say how wonderful I think City rail are at the moment. I did wonder though what is the job of a ticket inspector if he doesn’t even inspect tickets.

Apart from that a fairly uneventful day today. Went to work and then Uni, it was a good class, I ma starting to enjoy it which is good as it is very hard to go to something after you have been working all day that you don’t even enjoy. Though I have to say the elevators at UTS suck, there are 6 of them but only two go to odd numbered floors and of course my class is on an odd number so I always have to wait a long time, I know I could walk but it is floor 23. So anyway today we are all in the elevator after class and our odd floor elevator stops on an even floor and someone in my class says, not another dickhead who makes us stop on an even floor thinking that the person was outside waiting, unfortunately for him this was not the case and we all chuggled as a student gets out leaving our friend feeling quite embarassed. I just have to say I think it is so hillarious when things like that happen, you know when someone totally puts their foot in it. I mean not in a nasty way just in a funny way as it happens to me so often and I can still really enjoy it.

I am going to go bed now, chuckling to myself about all of that.

  2. You never catch an odd numbered floor lift on purpose, it is one of the UTS rules. You take an express lift to the floor above the one you wish to go to and then go down the stairs to the next floor. It’s like a thousand times quicker. Oh yes and by the way bathrooms are on the odd number floors in the tower.

  3. I like Cityrail people. Most of them are very friendly. It’s just the trains themselves that are lazy.

    And I like having ticket inspectors that don’t inspect tickets. It’s a matter of trust.
