SDIEGO CO. TRANSIT NEWSLETTER BY AN ELDER POET (www.geocities.com/poet92363)
9,13,03: FIRST I WANT TO THANK THE TRANSIT DRIVERS THAT DO LET OLD FOLKS LIKE ME, WHO ALSO HAS A DISABLED KNEE TO SIT DOWN FIRST BEFORE DRIVING OFF THROWING US INTO BONE BREAKING POSSIBILITIES!
YOU ARE HUMAN BEINGS FOR SUCH CARING, but to the other few that try to break our bones and spirit, I want to award them the "UP YOUR PEACH" award.
That list will be continued  on www.geocities.com/poet92363/UPYOURPEACHAWARD : GO TO MY ABOVE HOME PAGE, CLICKING ON THE CATRANSIT PAGES FOR PAST PROBLEMS (AND OH YES, ALL OF YOU SHOULD READ www.geocities.com/poet92363/WELLSFARGOBANK , who knows?... your bank may be doing this to your account as well!

I think of my self as a courteous person, by my late mothers training. I try to always let women and children or other elderly board first AND I nearly always thank the driver for the ride, as I am disembarking.

For years, I have traveled all over California, and in my conversations with drivers, have been told repeatidly, that the top brass of transit companies NEVER LISTEN TO THEM! They ignore their ideas to improve transit service or the saving of monies by their ideas. If I had it my way, the top brass would have to ride the transit to their Ivory Tower jobs EVERY DAY, then they might experience reality of both driver and rider.
Like spoiled brats, they are only concerned for their career advancements, spending millions of dollars in taxpayer funding. They are "What Lola Wants Lola Gets."

I have never met any of these officials, they are only available to their peers,
other plutocrat bureaucrats.

On the other hand, there are those drivers, such as on Aug. 23,03, at the Camino De plaza (Westfield Mall), Bus 918 (Rt.320 to Oceanside, Ca. Time:aprox 5:30pm)) I suddenly saw jettisoned in its stall, and jumped up, hopping on my leg, hopped madly towards it. The female TOOK ONE LOOK AT ME AND FEVERISHLY TURNED HER STEERING WHEEL EXITING.
My cursing must have been audible for some distance. (This is the new 2 million plus costing station THAT HAS NO RESTROOM FACILITIES FOR DRIVER OR RIDER HAS NO PORTABLE ONES EITHER. THE CLOSEST IS THE SEARS STORE A BLOCK AWAY IN THE MALL, DOWN AN ESCALATOR INTO THE BASEMENT. NO SIGNS ANNOUNCE IT AT STATION. THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT HAS ERRED BIG TIME FOR FUNDING THIS, BUT THEY DID AT THE FASHION VALLEY STATION AS WELL, AND GUESS WHAT, ACROSS THE STREET IN A FOREST AREA< IS WHERE PERSONS GO, TO DEPOSIT THEIR BODY WASTES...IT STINKS TO HIGH HEAVEN. DISEASE, INC. by our transit authorities!
Drivers tell me, the excuse at Westfield
Mall is a sewer line problem...BS, its a collusion by Transit Admin. and Westfield Mall, last night, I viewed a male coming out of that nearby landscaping, so soon, it will stink with disease as well. With the West Nile Virius on the way, apparently San Diego County Health Dept. is being as well paid off for not doing their jobs! Last year, I reported this to Carol Lam, U.S. Attorney General in San Diego, but shes more interested in city councilmen and strip clubs, it seems. People could die from this problem.)
WELL, the driver above hurt my knee running to catch that bus, and on 9,10,03, 5:15pm: it happened again. A 334 bus came as I was across the street going the opposite direction. I waved that I would meet her there. and hopping towards her stopping at stop, a Black female disembarked and at my shouted request told the driver to wait for me, as I scrambled the last few steps, BUT SHE DROVE OFF!
So the pain grew worse, when I walked, so much that on 9,11, I went to the Emergency Room at Palomar hospital OOPS! ERROR. IT WAS THE TRI CITY MEDICAL CENTER IN OCEANSIDE, Ca. / Lori A. Packard, RPA, Lic: PA16277, who wasnt interested in my worry, I might have been exposed to West Niles Virius.), explaining what had transpired, and they have appointed me for future tests.

THANKS AGAIN TO THE DRIVERS THAT DO CARE...


NOT IN NEWSLETTER: A bizarre transit issue began last year at the bus stop, at 930 Sante Fe St., in Vista, Ca. A group of 4 homeless drunks commandered a transit bus stop bench. They drank and urinated all day long there, daily. One day, after calling the police (SD Sheriff Dept.) to no avail, I noted one watching closely a armoured money vehicle at the Vons supermarket, so, out of desperation, I emailed the FBI.
Soon they were gone.

When I returned in August, 03, I sat on the grass lawn near there, and the Vons supermarket area Security Guard, told me, I COULDNT SIT THERE, READING MY NEWSPAPER, WAITING FOR THE BUS. I PROTESTED, THAT I WAS DISABLED AND SENIOR, AND ASKING FOR HER NAME, SHE REFUSED.
I THEN WENT TO THE WELLS FARGO BANK MANAGER, PROTESTING, where I have an acct. But he said I was loitering.  Last year, I saved his butt from a possible robbery (they now have their own security guard) and he insults me. In spite of the fact, of my having an account there.
THEN THE DRUNKS REAPPEARED, as if by magic (I suspect they be Canadian homeless), but the female security guard apparently feels sorry for them, not bothering or calling the law. Or shes part of their true mission!

On 9/11, I asked her to call the law, she refused, but wrote down their number for me to call.
I did, two deputies came out, and in a bit talked to the security guard, who obviously told them, I had called (1. Betrayal of confidence.), BECAUSE THEY TURNED AND LOOKED AT ME SITTING NEAR THE VONS FRONT DOOR. Later she approaches me, saying they didnt arrest, because they werent drunk enough. Then she told me to move, even though she had stated if I bought my daily Dr. Pepper there, I could sit...she lied.
IN FACT, The main drunk (who wears military drag, no doubt a scam) walked across the road in front of me later, staggering like a drunken toy, but the security guard said, "Oh, he has a bad leg," then she went to talk to him, whispering close to him on the bus bench, and that was number 2. Betrayal of confidence, because when I got up to catch bus, he saw me, and left, walking very undrunk.
AND NOW THERE ARE THREE BESIDES HIM.
THE TRANSIT DRIVERS SAY THEY CANT DO ANYTHING.
MEANWHILE, I HAVE BEEN DISCRIMINATED NOT BEING DRUNK, DISORDERLY, LOITERING, AND OBSERVANT AGAINST POSSIBLE CRIMINALITY> J.B.
