What chores was I supposed to do tonight? I can’t remember 😵‍💫

Quelles corvées devais-je faire ce soir? Je ne m’en souviens pas 😵‍💫

@TrueNorthSpice Boy... my maths is off.

Since the LRT's opening, I have saved in the best days (on a weekday):
* 25 minutes in the morning
* 65 minutes in the evening

And those include a car to get to the station.

Weekends are a different beast altogether.

Well, that no show train slowed my commute home by roughly 90 minutes.

And *this was* the fastest route, unlike the test yesterday that a comparative between my regular commute's anchor points.

I'm so furious that I can't even understand the podcast I'm listening.

@jfmezei @dhd6 I remember reading last year that they're planning removing train services. I can't remember the details.

The only line that I remember remaining is 11.

@mayintoronto I choose sorcery.

Magic wand 🪄, done!

@TrueNorthSpice Thank you!!

Train stations are roughly 5km apart in my city.

The LRT really was a game changer in my life. On a piece of paper, it wouldn’t make any sense, but it saves me hours per day.

I think in time, it would go like this for my commute (assuming no disruptions) for the three fastest :
- LRT + car
- Car ($$$$$ parking)
- Train + car

Saint-Jérôme service opened in 2007.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saint-J%C3%A9r%C3%B4me_line?wprov=sfti1#AMT_Service

Tracks beyond Blainville station are owned and operated by the RTM/exo, signed as AMT.

Turns out, exo paid out of pocket for track improvements between Park and Saint-Jérôme 😲

@jfmezei It’s the FVM that was bwoken, not the validator.

I remember that it wasn’t the answer. I think they told me to call them when it happens.

We have an answer… it was either at King’s Cross (aka somewhere I don’t know where) or a no show.

I gave it 10 minutes after the posted schedule and it still didn’t show up.

I guess it’s another bus commute 😩

#Montréal #exo

@jfmezei Not in that scenario personally 😅

I don’t remember what they told me to do when I really was in a situation where I was stranded because the FVM was broken.

I recall taking the train without paying, with proof of the impossibility to pay on my phone.

@satuelisa Oh damn! 😬

No, it’s not. That would be on line 15, which is closed on weekends

@dhd6 @jfmezei At the other end of the station 😆

@dhd6 😂😂

Now I have the song stuck in my head… and I’m normally listening to a podcast 😅

@jfmezei @heliomass

@jfmezei Oh noooo… not the transphobic platform 😰

While I wait, I roamed around the station.

The fare vending machine is out of order, so you can’t buy any fares if you need any.

It seems that the Interac reader can’t connect over USB to the computer; its LED display shows an error for USB.

Let’s have a guess. I’m waiting a train 🚂

Posted schedule says it comes in exactly 12 minutes.

Screens are not working so I don’t know on which platform.

@jfmezei @dhd6 So weird. Because I have a “standard” AB card and I don’t see that 😵‍💫😵‍💫😵‍💫
