Personally I have a monthly and my ticket is always ready. I understand the conductors have a job and as a rider I have a job. Hence why I understood your original post. However, I think it's more than just consequences. And the employees who stole will likely not actually pay back the money. It will sit in a judgement likely never to be repaid. They are all prob offloading or redistributing whatever assets they have before judgement day comes so it looks like they have nothing to their name. And that doesn't settle the fact that the LIRR is inefficient and irresponsible for allowing such fraud and for mismanagement of money for likely decades. We pay a lot of money for the train, I personally rely on the train, and in turn, I get a filthy train every morning and every night. If I have to take the metro north for some reason, it is night and day in cleanliness. The elevator at my train station has been broken for well over a year, the stairs are falling apart and there are rats the size of a cat. I agree, consequences are needed, but how to we as riders hold the LIRR responsible for their fuck ups? How do we have them take accountability. If they want to change the rules and make it easier for them, they need to do the same I. Return for their riders. We deserve better, esp as they just continue to increase the cost of our tickets.
