@MBTA_CR so that was a 55 minute wait at Anderson for a Lowell train after the shuttle dropped us off - do you realize that’s longer than the train takes to go from North Station to Lowell?!? Another Friday, another 2.5 hour commute since you all can’t get your shit together

[Boston Lady @BostonLady9]

@MBTA_CR how the fuck is the Lowell train from Anderson newly 10 minutes late - it’s only going to 4 stops, been here waiting for 40 minutes since the shuttle dropped us off!

[Boston Lady @BostonLady9]

@MBTA_CR Update, they boarded a later departing train before the Lowell train, there is now a train but no update on departure time

[Boston Lady @BostonLady9]

@MBTA_CR Now they are saying at least an hour delay and it’s every single train out of North Station - sounds like more than an equipment shortage - why not just tell the truth?

[Boston Lady @BostonLady9]

@MBTA_CR If it’s a 5-15 minute delay why are they announcing at North Station that’s it’s a 30-45 minute delay!!!

[Boston Lady @BostonLady9]

OMG @MBTA_CR @MBTA_CR_Alerts @MBTA it ~2h Lowell>Boston this AM, but PM you outdid yourselves! No signage @ North Station for busses, conflicting info from staff, full busses held for 20+min, disabled passengers left at Anderson, & you had the fucking nerve to collect fares

@PanickedFoodie @AshleyGWinter could you offer any advice?

@elthe901201 @hotpinkrat @dieworkwear The US federal government for one, use Asian or of Asian descent, the same way you’d use European or of European descent

@cristipaton66 @hotpinkrat @elthe901201 @dieworkwear 100% and thank you for asking questions and being open to learning!

@elthe901201 @hotpinkrat @dieworkwear Oriental is a derogatory term to describe a person

@QIZHILIANG @randomrecruiter I’m on my 8th (I think), an L14, and I have a sweet pension to go along with it! 😆 Nothing better than job security!

@zeta_globin @halogen1048576 Data analyst here and I feel more attentive and capable, likely because I’m sleeping SOOO much better than before, but definitely no negative effects

@constans @Karandras First, that payout for unused leave was a 1 time thing, secondly his annual salary was well over 200k, his former position currently pays almost 350k, I’m all for calling out issues but he did exactly what the system is set up for - don’t like it, work to change the system

@emilykmay We have a den! And it isn’t the same as our living room or family room or home offices

[Boston Lady @BostonLady9]

@emilykmay We spend about 150 and share a car, but I spend nearly 400 a month on a train pass (that’s way better than the roughly 800 I’d have to spend to drive to work on gas and parking).

@dremilyportermd @1Rahgirl @NicolinaZ How is this much different than the rest of health care? My insurance company offers a very similar service; the urgent care clinic I go to when sick (takes 2-3 weeks to get “urgent” visit at primary care office) doesn’t know any of my meds or history that I don’t provide.

@MeowmeowPhd @anomura31 @sassyomsomg @babbymd I had leg and knee pain with my period - was endo on/near sciatic nerve! Much better since treatment for endo

@fuckyouiquit I don’t know who needs to hear this but DO NOT QUIT! Make them fire you - seriously, then you have options

@AmandaMGoetz @TracyLSpears is phenomenal - not sure if she does specifically strategy re speaking but does executive coaching and is one of the best speakers I have heard ever

@PhysicianDoodle As someone who was sent home from an ED with an abdominal hemorrhage after being told all my tests were clear only to get the results later that night via the online portal after they were signed - you better believe I’d rather get bad news via a device than nearly die
