[Nfbf-l] Amtrak

[TaraPrakash]

Holly, people say we are living in 21st century. I am not sure what century 
they are in.

It's not related but I have felt disgustingly helpless on air tran flights 
as I am traveling frequently between Atlanta and Orlando. Interestingly I 
nevver had issues with Air tran staff based in Orlando but the Atlanta 
people take me as a liability. Once I had to wait for 35 minutes before 
somebody managed to come to take me to the baggage claim area from the 
aircraft. The other day one guy boarded me in the train and left saying this 
train will leave you there. While leaving he told a passenger to tell me 
when the the train reached baggage claim.

While departing from Atlanta, one evening, the gate agent said she will help 
me boarding. She finished boarding and started announcing for my name. When 
I reached her and reminded that she herself told me to wait she said we are 
fine and the plane is still there.

On my most recent flight, I lost my Victor Reader Stream. When I called them 
to report the loss I was told that I didn't actually fly that day. The gate 
agent had put a "no show" for me. So before I faxed my boarding pass they 
would not believe I flew that evening. If there was a plane crash, I 
wouldn't have officially died, but wouldn't be living either.


It's not funny. I am contemplating a legal action. I wish I had some lawyer 
to take care of this this sucking attitude. I so much want to misspell 
'sucking'.
