No, I do not think anyone should eat on the underground public transport in a city full of rats.

This author was not in the wrong in calling an employee out.

I do not know the reason for the publication cancellation, but if the tweet is really the reason, then it's deplorable. And really weird.

The author is in the wrong because she was a COMMUNICATIONS PROFESSIONAL. How can that be your job and you don't know when to keep your mouth shut?

Just like Justine Sacco and her AIDs tweet.

Does a communications professional hamper you from calling out people who do wrong in their professional capacity? Metro employees should model good behavior on Metro. Seems like a no-brainer, and anyone who sees them do otherwise can absolutely call them out on social media.

I really don't understand why you don't get this.
