This goes out to all the ATU members for their greed and blatant careless attitude towards the residents of HRM who used your service. My wife and I used to be transit users… each day to and from work. But since the strike, it’s been a challenge. So earlier this week we went out and bought a 2012 Mazda. So ATU members, I welcome you to take my hot exhaust pipe up your ass because we will never be using your pathetic service again. When I asked the salesperson if they saw an increase in sales since the strike, he said “Let’s just say I have guaranteed a hefty bonus… more than I ever would have expected.” Screw you ATU. The public couldn’t give three shits about you now. —Zoom Zoom Mazda

I’ll just bet that Sebastabitch’s gloryhole is whistling Broadway showtunes, right now.
Ya gotta admit though, as much of a sleazeball as he was, he DID sorta warn us about taking the bus…albeit in his own, special, douchebag kinda way.
Congrats on your new car OP but some us just can’t afford a car and rely on the bus service, walking is all fine and dandy but not easy going all the time with bad knees. I’m just tired of the greed.
Jeez, Ivanski.
One hand is “phantom fisting”, the other playing an invisible (rusty) trombone.
Yet I don’t exactly *miss* Sebastian…
How’s the book business? Sell any Kerouacy to hipsters-in-training recently?
I think I have a first ed of Dpctor Sax…

LOL Wheelie – Life is indeed a cabaret, old chum….>; )
Operation Dunkirk continues apace. We had at least 3 pb copies of “On the Road” for about a month. What up wit dat? When the new incarnation opens we’re going to have our sister store back with us which means I have to get used to “Business”,”Self-Help” “Chick-Lit” and “Kids Books” again.
*Shudderrrrrrrrrrr “
Pray for me
Congatulations on your purchase OB!!! Welcome to the freedom only vehicle ownership can provide
See, joke’s on YOU, OB: bus drivers don’t give two shits if you take the bus or not. MT isn’t a private business that will shut down due to lack of usage. Sure some routes might get cut and maybe some lay offs, but that’s really unlikely.
So while you’re stuck with your hefty payments on your 2012 mazda once the buses go back in service, drivers will still ahve their jobs and will likely have to do less if as many people as you claim are going to be skipping the bus.
Buying a new car isn’t as big of a ‘fuck you’ to the drivers as you think it is.
That’s as close as it gets though PK, short of using physical violence.. which is sometimes a perfectly viable option! lol na just kidding, don’t hit people.
So because you’re pissed off because if the bus strike that you bought a car? What a fucking dummy YOU are! Loser!
going out tomorrow to pick up my new beast. not new really, just to me. a big old mercury cop car. got it for 500 bucks, and thing is great shape.big 8, and lots of metal, let those fucking idiots try to block me in sometime. zoom, zoom, is right.
They were ready for your master plan OP. They’re blocking snowplows now.
OP. Congrats on your new treads! You can’t put a price on convenience and freedom. Anyone calling you a loser are doing it from the sidewalks.
