...and that, ladies and gentlemen... is that.
So I go on my merry way to work today, thinking, hey I don't really feel like going to work, but I will anyway, because it's what you do, and I time it so I wait my usual 5 mins. or so before the train comes. Conductor goes: "Only got room for 3 more bikes, already past capacity." Counts 3 bikes, and doesn't let the first biker that was there at the station on. I look at the schedule... Eh, no biggie, next train comes in 6 minutes or so. So I wait for that, of course it's a little late. Train pulls in, conductor won't let ANY bikes on. I'm like: "So it apparently is just not possible to get to work today." Me and the other biker on the platform are wondering: "Is it worth it to go in today?" He leaves, I call in shortly after and head home. And that, ladies and gentlemen, is how you know gas prices have gone too high. (Too many people filling up multiple trains with bikes)
