Yes, folks!
Opening line of the Amazon bid: come to a city rich in history and try and find a way to get 50k people to work with an infrastructure that has also made history as being the most decrepit corrupt boondoggle ever.
I have it on good authority...
Marty Walsh. The T is reliable and the press is to blame. video

Marty Walsh isn't working for me.
Latest issue is signal problems
at Community College.
And is it just me, or has the T given up on the idea of issuing "all clear" alerts when problems are resolved?
It doesn't seem worth it
When's the last time any one T line was "all clear"? By the time they type it, something else will have failed
they post it on twitter
But they usually do it too early, before the residual delays have cleared out.
Obviously, somebody has decided that all of the commuters
have purchased the (insert name of incompatible with anyone else phone service here) "for an extra $250, we'll surgically attach your smartphone to your hand so you can immediately see each and every tweet you receive" package - aka the 'Total Twit" option.
So who cares about the number of actual people out there who still receive T alerts by text so they don't have to worry about missing one - because their phone ALERTS them when they receive one.
