Token Booth Clerks: Useless

I’m glad I’m not the only one who sees the uselessness of these idiots in the glass boxes at the subway stations…

It was several years ago and I was returning home when I noticed a strange Asian man was hovering around me and then followed me off the train. I was concerned and went up to a booth attendant and told him that someone was following me. He looked at me blankly and asked what did I wanted him to do. I looked back at him in disbelief. “I don’t know, maybe call the cops?” I thought to myself. I didn’t bother to continue talking with the useless booth attendant.

This wouldn’t be so galling if the TWU (The Transit Worker’s Union) wasn’t so intent on positioning its members as the first line of defense in the subway system every time they want to close a booth or the union wants a raise. In fact, most of them are useless in any kind of emergency.

Just ask Maria Besedina.
