Charmed commutes

Imagine you have to get from Oak Grove to the new convention center. Now imagine that your commute on the Orange, Red and Silver Lines goes perfectly - as in, get off the Orange Line, get to the Red Line platform and a train is coming in. Weird, huh?
But, wait, it gets better. Nicole Marie reports how she made a mistake and wound up at the Boston College stop and then was able to take the trip back into town for free thanks to a kindly T worker:
... so long story short she let me get on for free because I "fell asleep". The guy behind me was like "I fell asleep too!" and the lady was like "YOU still have to pay, SIR!"

Not that stupid
I can see how you ended up going the wrong way. At copley station, which is where the library is, the outbound and inbound platforms are not connected. The doors say on top if it is outbound or inbound. If you don't see this then you don't know what direction you are going unless you know that the direction of leachmere is inbound, and arborway (E), riverside (D), Cleveland Circle (C) and Boston College (B) are outbound.
