Seen and Heard on Trimess

Tyler Cox ‏@PtownsOwnTCOX

Can't stand those Trimet fare faggots. 

Josh ‏@ThisDudeAbides_

This bus smells like mayonnaise. I'll take that over the liquor smell that filled the bus that last time I rode the 9 from Gresham. #trimet 

Adri C ‏@PDXtrimetrider

@sp_redelectric it's multnomah county's decision. Trimet was actually kind of forced into providing passes for pps high schoolers this year 

Alissa ‏@ally_108

@trimet why is the 15 line so few and far between in the industrial area? is there any chance of this becoming a more frequent route? 

Mike Rigsby ‏@mikerigsby

@LjTx @trimet I'm assuming he has too much Union seniority so they can't touch him, or at least won't. 

William Reagan ‏@WilliamReagan

Packed bus now nearly empty, but this guy ignores empty benches and stays next to me. I'll let you know if he asks me out. #Awkward #Trimet

Ross McKeen ‏@mightytoycannon

My homeward bound @trimet trip on #16 line promises to be as bad as this morning's. Bus already 30 minutes late. 

Mike Rigsby ‏@mikerigsby

On the plus side, my #Trimet 99 driver 'Trish' screeches out stops like a cat & a parrot were in a fight as they fell into a wood chipper.

& @trimet I routinely outwalk a streetcar but outwalk a frequent service bus that never arrived? New low for an extra 40 cents per ride. 

Josh ‏@ThisDudeAbides_

I wonder what sort of fail led to a 1600 bus serving line 4 at rush hour. I feel sorry for the riders on that packed non-AC bus. #trimet 

Victor Rael ‏@bongripsdaily

i think trimet raised prices just to piss everyone off unexpectdly 

Mike Rigsby ‏@mikerigsby

From a standing room only MAX train to a standing room only bus. #Trimet should get a side gig as a sardine cannery for extra money. 

Gary! ‏@dalekg

hey @trimet the TVM's won't accept my US Bank debit card,tried a couple machines around town,"DENIED", US Bank says my acct & card are fine 

Alyssa ‏@banana816

@ErinMarshall21 Good luck! If you get the chance sometime, ask Meagan Usselman about our TriMet disaster. #notfun 

Doctor Jeff ‏@doctor_jeff

Three 1st-year psych students sitting here with no earthly ideas regarding what to make of this psychotic guy seated next to them. #Trimet 

Mike Rigsby ‏@mikerigsby

Yay. Apparently the previous #Trimet 99 never showed up so now mine has double the load. Standing room only, crammed wall to wall. Fun 

Northeast Coalition ‏@NECoalition

Anyone know how Trimet determines where buses stop and take a break? Woodlawn neighbors surprised by early AM idling buses. 

Erik Halstead ‏@sp_redelectric

Alrighty, approaching 217...which way are we going @trimet 94 - Main or 99?? 

Mike Rigsby ‏@mikerigsby

A total of FIVE #Trimet #4 buses by Stop 7634 within 9 minutes. And they wonder why their budget is failing. 

Erik Halstead ‏@sp_redelectric

Note to @trimet rt 94 driver on 1422: buses aren't meant to lean 30 degrees over, hopping the curb exiting Barbur TC. 

Erik Halstead ‏@sp_redelectric

How many weeks has the @trimet big dig been here, seven? Eight? 

Kaylee Noah ‏@Chaseperfecti0n

@TheDaileyDouble I've used my bra as a fare holder for Trimet lol. 

 Adri C ‏@PDXtrimetrider

51 riders hate the 'rush hour' service. We need at least weekday service 5:30am-8pm. The crappy service we have just doesn't cut it #trimet
