I mean, it can’t possibly be this bad, can it? For example, we know for a fact that Driver Doug isn’t like this.

Still, lol that someone bothered to touch up the poster this way.

I honestly have nothing else to say about this new Muni map.

Via Muni rider @cmaldo “And the winner for “I’m too damn lazy to fix this” goes to…. #lazy #youhadonejob #seriously #muni #munidiaries”

One job indeed.

I can’t believe it’s not Fabio on Muni

fabio

I wonder who the No. 1 most commonly mistaken celebrity in the world is. Just yesterday at lunch, I was positive that The Jinx‘s Robert Durst was a few seats down from me at the bar. No, it wasn’t him. And yes, I finished my lunch.

Muni rider and friend of Muni Diaries Stephanie sent us the photo above. Methinks this is actually Fabio himself, not a doppelganger. And I am right about this.

When all else fails on Muni

Alt. title: Until Muni equips its ridership with a well-deserved dining car …

Rider Leigh let us know about this crafty fellow passenger she encountered on Muni Metro recently. “Shoe.” That’s Australian for “cup holder.”

What Muni and BART drivers really wanna say

April 16, 2015 jeff One comment

Ever wonder what’s going on in the minds of the men and women at the controls of our public transit on a daily basis? Well, wonder no more.

The Atlantic’s Citylab brings us Above Average’s look behind the curtains, as it were. Pay extra special attention around 1:06.

Surely, one of the other cities they’re talking about cannot possibly be San Francisco? Okay, okay. And sorry that I called you Shirley.

Speaking of transit operators, don’t miss the very first Muni driver we’ve ever had on stage, Driver Doug, at Muni Diaries Live this Saturday at the Elbo Room. Getcher tickets here today!
