SEPTA increases Transpass price, decreases coverage

without comments

It looks like SEPTA is messing with my business yet again -
they’re shutting down the last really good deal they offer on the Regional Rail system,
all the while charging me more for the privilege of getting less.

Let me explain….

Here’s what you can do with a Transpass on the Regional Rails now:
from SEPTA’s current Transpass page

Customers may use a TransPass for unlimited travel on the Airport Line (R1) Regional Rail; and to stations located within the City Of Philadelphia during off-peak hours, weekends, and major holidays.

Now look at the new proposed tariff:

TransPasses on Regional Rail will only be valid for travel between Center City Zone Stations, except on weekends and holidays when they have “Anywhere” status

Now I wouldn’t mind so much if they weren’t also doing this: link to SEPTA transpass fare hike

Weekly TransPass
$ 20.75 (current) | $ 22.00 (proposed)

Monthly TransPass
$ 78.00 (current) | $ 83.00 (proposed)

Less coverage, more money, and still no smart card system

[FMChurch] Help God, I need a job

without comments

Here’s another announcement from my church:

“Help God, I need a job.”

Or, “Help God, I need a better job.”

Ever find yourself uttering those words to God?

That’s what we’ll be looking at this weekend in our services,
when we study what God asks us to do as we’re waiting on Him
to give us a job…or a better job.

It’ll be a very useful service as we talk about
the practical steps we can take as we wait on God.

And we’ll end each service with a special prayer
for all in need of a job or a better job.

So plan on attending this weekend,
and please invite lots of friends
so they can be encouraged through the service as well.

And this Saturday night,
don’t forget to set your clocks FORWARD one hour
as we spring-forward this weekend!
