Dear CTA riders who so clearly do not usually ride the CTA,
I understand that you have needs to get places.  We all have needs to get places.  That is why we take the El.  That said, why on EARTH do you insist on taking the El for what seems like it must be the first time in your life when it is morning rush hour and you have LARGE suitcases.  I'm not talking the kind of suitcases that you can bring as carryons, no, I'm talking the kind that have to be checked (and that you often have to pay extra for because they are prone to being over-packed and thus over the weight limit).  Why anyone would bring these suitcases on a train where there tends to not be enough room for the PEOPLE to begin with, is beyond me.  But then to make matters worse, it's you.  You who do not know how to ride the El to begin with.  Who do not understand that people have to get on and off at every stop -- yes -- EVERY STOP!!!  I am all about taking public transportation, but sometimes you just need to take a cab.  That's really all there is to it.  So next time, do the rest of us a favor, and take the damn cab. 

Thanks,

Me
