Erik nails it

More like picked people who actually use the system, and won't dominate the meetings with their own complaints

When has Erik ever dominated any meeting with their own complaint, Jason? Since you video tape all of the meetings, feel free to post the video of it.

And considering that Erik works for a company that pays substantial payroll taxes and provides full cost annual fares to its employees, while it's known that you illegally re-use expired transfers to evade fares and do not report or pay any payroll taxes, what business do you have criticizing him for paying for a service that has abandoned him? Watch yourself, Jason...one day you'll end up in jail too for theft of services.

I do not reuse expired transfers. It would be hard to do now with the printed tickets.

As for meetings, I was referring to the meetings of the focus group and not the board meetings which he has never gone to.

And from what he has posted on TriMet's Facebook page (not your personal one, Erik) and elsewhere on the Internet, it's clear that he might not "play nice" and allow for calm discussions (that's not "play nice" and always be positive about TriMet) and the process to be productive.

Regarding TriMet "abandoning" him, it would help if he'd be understanding about buses being just 4 minutes late, less than TriMet's on-time standard of 5 minutes 59 seconds, well past the start of the route.

In addition, I have taken TriMet to numerous job sites in the past, paying both directly with fares and indirectly with payroll taxes, and not had a huge problem with trips being late.
