LeBron James Should Just Take The Train To His New Job

https://web.brid.gy/r/https://defector.com/lebron-james-should-just-take-the-train-to-his-new-job

I’ve been riding #PATCO trains for 49 years. Today was the first day when I rode the train into #Philly and it stopped at the Franklin Square station. That was cool (in the dorkiest way).

August 5, 1981 - President Ronald Reagan, having ordered striking air traffic controllers back to work within 48 hours, fired 11,359 (more than 70%) who ignored the order, and permanently banned them from federal service (a ban later lifted by President Bill Clinton). The controllers, seeking a shorter workweek among other things, were concerned the long hours they were required to work performing their high-stress jobs were a danger to both their health and the public safety.

Managed to take four new #trains today:

* Amtrak's Pennsylvanian
* SEPTA subway
* SEPTA trolley
* PATCO Speedline

Probably won't take the Pennsylvanian again since the seats were all backwards - I assume this is because it turns around in PHL to head west to PGH and that's the longer leg. NE Regional is frequent enough that I can avoid it if I'm just going down to Philly.

As SAG-AFTRA joins the WGA on strike, I’d like to raise a giant middle finger and wish a very fuck you to Ronald Reagan, who is still dead.
