>take the subway to work every day for the past few years and use my autoloading transit pass to scan myself through every time
>watch how almost every day people evade fare by going thru emergency exit, hopping faregates, sneak through behind people, see bums and other unsavory characters on the train who clearly didnt pay while the subway staff do nothing
>always get upset about how i pay every day and these people get in for free and the system doesn't care
>today for the first time ever i see "fare insepctors" go through train to check peoples' proof of payment
>my transit pass shows up as not paid and that my card has $0 on it, sometimes these passes don't scan through if you go too quickly or don't put it in the exact right place
>i try to bring up my account and show it has money but they wont let me
>issue me a $75 citation and tell me to just appeal the fine
>check account when i get into work and the idiots scanners don't account for the autoload high value discount
now i have to do all this appeals process as a perfectly law abiding citizen, why do i bother
