Question

It's got me buggered how the train from Flagstaff station to North Melbourne takes longer than the train from North Melbourne to Flagstaff in the morning.

I know I am up front on the way in (peachy keen to get to work!!), and on the way out I'm up the back, but I still can't figure it out.

I'm also thinking about getting off at West Footscray station and walking home (I walked the other night, and it took me 20 minutes or so. ), as I hate Footscray and the fuckheads that are there. Tired of being accosted by drug fucks and worried constantly about getting mugges.

Honestly, I know some people are doing it tough, but how hard is it not to pay for a train/bus ticket? I see people all the time waving random bits of paper at the bus driver, and those same people often getting pulled up by the Connex rent a cop at the stations. I hear them behind me planning their nefarious plan, which usually involves trying to spin the driver some hard luck story - spare me.

I know I'm lucky that I am not doing it that hard, but I have done, and I still managed to buy a ticket. If you're on the dole you get a concession card, but fuck me, it's $2 something for 2 hours.

And another thing, when are the powers that be stop people from paying for a ticket on the bus? Get behind some fat teenagers who are paying for a ticket with twenty cent pieces and you'll be singing my tune. If I can buy a ticket, any stupid twunter can. The sooner they stop people purchasing a ticket on line, the sooner I'll get to work. I reckon these fucks who don't prepurchase make my bus late every time, because when they aren't on it, I get to work early! Surprise, surprise!

My mate Jay and his co-presenter Chris are presenting their last show on Joy FM next Tuesday at 2100 Melbourne time. Listen in, chumps. I will be.

Charlotte is fine too, thanks for asking.
