Bill, pace yourself, let the machine do the work. Sort of....
what a time I just had with Amtrak.
Called them up to see if I could extend my existing ticket one station to DelRay Beach instead of Palm Beach, I got it screwed up when I booked the ticket.
My friends don't live far from Delray Beach train station so in for a penny.
Yes sir, we can do that and it will only cost 4 dollars.
Such a deal.
But Sir. Sir, did you not get our notice that your train has been cancelled?
uh, NO.
Yes sir you are now booked on the Silver Star instead of the Silver Meteor and we can take it right
to Delray Beach, and because you are a senior we can refund 37 dollars to you.
Hmmmm. Another four hours on the train, milk run instead of express, my train shut down they owned up
to couldn't staff it, maybe hadn't sold enough tickets, but it's the same roomette on a slower train.
37 bucks for four hours is not minimum wage but they did they best they could. Better pack more munchies.
and they never ever told me the train was cancelled. If I hadn't called them...
Oh we would have called you the day before.
Sure you would have...
