I was in a bunch of subway stations yesterday, so I'm not completely sure where this was..I think it was in the 42nd street station either walking from the ACE to the S train, or vice versa. On the beams in the ceiling there was a message..which I assumed was an ad..and maybe it was and I just didn't notice the rest. It was one line on every fourth

Yep. That's in 42nd St in that really really really long-ass hallway between the ACE and everything else that stops there.

Isn't that disheartening? I always makes me want to quit whatever job it is that I'm not liking and go to sleep.

yeah! when it got to 'then fired' i thought 'heh that's kinda interesting and it rhymes. what's next' and then there was the rest of it. those poor commuters who hate their jobs and have to pass by there everyday.. i was expecting there to be a next sign and for it to say 'monstertrak.com' or some such.

and that really really really long-ass hallway is not that fun in subway station heat.

I also REALLY REALLY HATE all subway hallways/platform/everything else in the summer. It's probably unsafe or something, and I'm just waiting for a 90 year-old to faint on the platform and fall onto the tracks in front of an oncoming train.

I could not imagine reading that little poem every day, while walking between trains underground in the stuffy hallway with other New Yorkers who hate their lives. I think I would shoot myself. I'm really curious why it's up there. It WOULD be genious if it was an ad for monstertrak or hotjobs or something. But it's not. I don't think...
