I thought this was a joke, but no, they are seriously considering. HOW ON EARTH would that stupid idea work? Who would still want to take the subway and then on top of that make reservations? Are they going to label seats by name? This is so stupid and unworkable.

I agree its ridiculous. What if you cannot get a seat during rush hour due to it being fully booked? Does one just go to work later or take the day off? I dont think this will ever see the light of day.

"Mr. & Mrs...., "you will sit on that seat". "Oh wait, you can't go to work tomorrow since it's booked. Sorry. Better luck next time". Seriously, how do these people get paid for so much incompetence?

Oh snap

You mean like the MTA gets conductors to check tickets on our phones? I'm down.

Maybe thats what the subway needs, conductors like LIRR/Metro North

Somebody needs to figure this out

Lmao.

Conductor asks for homeless wackos ticket

Wacko tells conductor FU

Conductor calls police to remove him.

He puts up a struggle and people take their phones out to show the bad police beating up poor homeless.

The whole program will be cancelled.

This will probably only take a few hours.

I've already reached out to cancel my membership.

I won't be going to a gym ever in the future.

I will just do push ups , sit ups and weight lifting at home.
