Good stuff isn't it? After wandering around downtown in the heat and humidity trying to figure out how to get to midtown, I turned around and went back home to Jersey City. I am working from home today!

Re: NWR: VENT! TODAYS COMMUTE

WOW that is crazy, and i thought i had it bad...The funny thing is that someone at my job who lives in howard beach also came in after 1pm and this was from him leaving before 8 am.

It took me 2 hours but i guess bc i avoided NYC mta trains. i took the LIRR from kew gardens which was delayed but not by alot, got to penn station and all downtown trains were suspended, at first i was like OMG this is gonna get crazy now, but luckily i called work to say i was gonna be late and the guy who picked up asked where i was and i told him about the trains not working...i work in jersey so he told me the path trains were working so to get out, walk up about 2 blocks to the 34th street path station, i did have to wait there for about 30 mins and then it went extremely slow, and also get off to switch for another path train but guess it could've been worse

sorry you had to deal with all that thats dedication. My mom ended up going back home
