My name is Andrew Oppenheimer, and I am a New Yorker from Staten Island. I have lived here my whole life, and am a student in CUNY College of Staten Island. Since my sophomore year high school I've taken the bus nearly every day. I do not drive.
In this time, I have met many wonderful people through mass transit, including girlfriends, close friends, entertainers, and homeless philosophers. I have many wonderful memories of these times, and I am thankful for them. I am grateful that the MTA facilitated my getting from point A to point B. This is all.
I hate the Metropolitan Transit "authority" in a way I have never previously experienced. They have stolen my money, my time, my patience, and harmed interpersonal relationships. They have made me late for work and class more times than I can remember, and (literally) stolen days of my life from me.
The list of reasons why I hate the MTA grows every day, and this blog is dedicated to that disdain. It is my hope that this page inspires others to do the same, and share their experiences of this unethical, immoral organization in an effort to see real change to the practices and ethics of the MTA.
Truly yours,
Andrew Oppenheimer. December 16th, 2009
