The RIPTA robot voice on Bus 21 said that my just received change card is not valid. I have had this NOT VALID change card for several days now. Not being the shamelessly dishonest type I did not want to keep presenting it to the RIPTA bus driver for a year . One of them said " go to the office ". Back and forth on the CARD NOT VALID ? I wondered. So this morning instead of catching the RIPTA 30 outbound on Cranston Street near Solitro's Bakery I took RIPTA 30 inbound to Kennedy Plaza . Always cheerful Kennedy Plaza .I quickly found out that the RIPTA office there was OPEN FOR REST ROOMS ONLY .
Should not the bus driver be able to quickly correct the glitch ? How many other RIPTA passengers were given a defective change card . The last bus driver asked me if I had a five dollar bill ? No, I just had a 20 dollar bill. Yes , give me another change card for that ? NO THANK YOU !
Does lack of COMMON SENSE qualify you as a RIPTA official ?
