Instead of getting to work at 8:45, like I usually do, I got to work at 10am. Why? Three very simple reasons, signal issues, cancelled train, and a minor accident at Jamaica. I’ve got no idea what the signal issue did, it might have actually caused the accident. But the cancelled train caused me to get on the next train from Hicksville, which was packed as a result; this happens anytime you try to crap people that usually go on two different trains onto one train. We’re all packed in this train, and it starts making extra stops to pick up more people (again because of the cancelled train), and it gets even more stuffed in there. As a result of these frequent stops, we get to Jamaica later than we should have. Had the train gotten there closer to the scheduled time, we would have gotten to the station much faster. But basically we were stuck at Jamaica for a good 40 to 45 minutes. I can’t wait till I move off Long Island…
