Thanks for nothing MYKI, Vline and transport policy morons who cannot even copy a workable system and get it right

Well another pleasuarable journey into Melbourne this morning no thanks to vline, myki and all the other outrageous, unacceptable and "corporate maggot" policies that disturbed me physically and mentally...

To start off, I put all of my cash onto the new/FAKE 'myki' machine that was on the station platform, only to then be told that it is just a 'test' machine which apparently cannot issue you a pass or a receipt but can function enough to take all of my money. This early morning realisation that yet another government policy that achieved nothing and cost everything was yet again bothering me, was followed by the vline ticket office then telling me that "we know nothing about myki, have had no training in myki and can do nothing about the myki machine" taking my money, followed closely by them telling me that I could not then eftpos my ticket purchase because there was a minimum amount...yes, they did get something right, there is a minimum amount of bullshit that someone should have to go through to try and pay someone for the pleasure of sitting on the floor all the way to melbourne. So after then withdrawing more cash, which of course meant I missed said train, I jumped on the next one (22 minutes later) to finally find an actual seat, 5 carriages up the train. Being distracted with the notion that I had just paid $32.60 for a seat and I could perhaps not sit on the crusty floor for a change, I was then abruptly disturbed by a man who clearly made a regrettable career wish in primary school, who told me that I was in fact sitting in a "first class carriage". As I looked around at the exact same seating decor and cramped leg room as seen in the other carriages, I looked at him and said thanks for the tip. Still confused about his career options available to him in the 'work for the dole' scheme, he continued to explain his banal thoughts that this meant I could not sit there with my calculated fare of $25 to myki and $7.60 to vline and I would have to relive my tourtous trek through the carriage, stepping over disgruntled sheep and say goodbye to another banal 15 minutes of my life, to find a warm, encrusted place to seat on the floor further down. As I put my headphones back on and smirked at the said leader of the sheep and peered at my watch which stated that even if the train was late arriving (as to be expected) I still only had another 10 minutes of this enjoyable commute, he continued to have his rant, and insist I paid an additional $3 if I did not want to move to the lower-class cattle carriage. So to bring a long and tiresome whinge to an end, I paid a total of $35.60 to arrive 45 minutes late for my lecture at university. And seeing the pay disputes and lack of fair and permanent working contracts for the university staff was continuing since johnny brought the australian universities into disrepute in his reign of terror, the lecturer (which last I heard was being paid in myer gift vouchers) promptly ended the lecture at the 50 minute mark...

Thankfully the myki system is up and running in the city trams and despite already having a ticket included with my vline pass, it managed to swipe my defunct and useless card that was in my pocket and carefully deduct my tram ride twice!

Thanks for nothing asshole corporate and governmental wankers. Go have your 3 hour friday lunch with my tax dollars and come up with another genius "it's all part of the transport plan" policy.
