This is my story.
I attended the Brooklyn Latin School Open House. And I somewhat dropped my MetroCard and didn’t realize it. Then, when I got to the Montrose station, I realized it was missing. I kindly told the man at the booth my MetroCard was missing. He replied, “So?”. I told him, “I’m a student.” I told my mom he wouldn’t let me through. After arguing with my mom, he STILL refused to let me go through. He was afraid if something happened to me, he would have to take responsibility. I’ve taken the train for years! I know not to talk to strangers etc. He would’ve kept me all night in BUSHWICK, probably the worst neighborhood in all of Brooklyn. If it weren’t for a woman who felt pity for me, I wouldn’t have got home. Now that you’ve heard my story, do you think workers in train stations are rude?
