Fuck Trimet and one particular driver.I put in a valid ticket and you said it was not valid and I needed to get off the bus. I asked why it wasn’t valid and you just escalated to the cops.first thing. You are horrible at your job and shouldn’t have any authority. I If your answer to a request for information as to why my ticket is invalid is to tell me “I can call the cops and they can tell you why it is not valid” then you don’t deserve a job working with the public.
I just wanted to know why you were telling me my ticket wasn’t valid when it should have been. I asked politely because I was genuinely confused as to why you were saying I needed to get off the bus or pay a valid fare. I’ve been riding my whole life and know what a valid ticket looks like. I was given the ticket by a friend so if there was some reason that it was genuinely invalid then fine, but just tell me more than it’s not valid. That means nothing at all and tells me even less. Fuck you and your power trip.
I should have made you call the cops, but I didn’t want to make all the other riders wait for them to arrive. I won’t wasted that many man hours and my time fighting you. But I hope you can at least read and find this. Fuck you for leaving me stranded. I truly hope that you come to my business so I can return the favor someday soon. You won’t always have power over me so I hope you enjoyed it. I hope the next person you do this to has a lot less to lose than I do.
Thanks for the Wonderful Experience

Whew, feel better now that you got that rant out of your system involving a $2.50 fuckin’ fare?
But why was your ticket voided?
^not valid. durh.
Just for future reference, Tri-met tickets usually aren’t hand-written on the back of a chewing-gum wrapper.
Pretty sure that when you put it in the machine and the machine tells the driver it’s not valid, that’s ALL it tells the driver. You know that you didn’t buy that ticket yourself, meaning that it’s very likely a ticket which your friend had already validated. You actually have more information about what might have happened than the driver in this case, and you’re holding everybody else up in your display of righteousness.
Go get a valid fare and shut up. People gotta get to work.
Car ownership for life.
You shoulda tried smiling 🙂
Nothing you said sounded wonderfull at all. I’m beginning think the title was meant to be sarcastic.
BTW, if the ticket was valid, you probably would’ve put up more of a fight.
“Man hours”? Too easy. Next!
Some friend. A friend of mine use to save all his expired TRI-MET transfers, then he only had to pay one fare per day. After that, he just opened up his wallet and looked for an old transfer that had the same code for the day as his earlier one and show that. Also, there are some Mexicans over on East Burnside at Grand who make great copies of bus tickets which they sell dirt cheap.
Maybe it’s non-transferable and he saw your friend hand it to you.
Maybe you should never trust another human being again.
Very interesting……mmmmm
I sympathize. It’s very easy to see if a ticket is valid these days. I think I even know who this driver might be, if he used to drive the 48. IF he says he’s just doing his job, he’s really not. As the weeklies reported, fare inspectors get paid like 70K a year to say “ticket please.”
