Reply to comment by Suddenly_Suitable in Transit experts say new MBTA general manager will 'fail' without more resources by ToadScoper
Your article states that 5 of the 7 on the board of directors were appointed by the governor, not the legislature. The MBTA board of directors web page also says this. https://www.mbta.com/leadership/mbta-board-directors
The other 2 are the secretary of transportation, and one chosen by the cities and towns in the MBTA advisory board.

I spend a lot of time on the Braintree/Holbrook line. It's fine, but you want a car.

The problem is the state is severely understaffed. Covid brought a wave of retirements and then another wave when people were forced back into the office. The state is offering current employees a bonus if they refer a new hire…: this has NEVER happened. They cannot hire people.

You’re right. As other commenters have said, they’re hanging around bars.

Oggi in Harvard Square is quite good. It's mostly take-out, but you can sit down. I personally like their tuna wrap, but they have a huge selection of sandwiches - some of which may or may not be widely available. One day, they had a smoked chicken wrap, which was great.
​
They have a fairly loyal clientele (I'm one), which probably speaks to the quality and pricing.

Reply to So glad they decided to add a new parking lane on Shawmut ave ! They must be planning to draw the lines any day now by hermionieweasley
It’s just parents picking up their kids from the youth center. This line is here every day and its not even a busy road, relax.

Even if we wanted to do work, we couldn’t in a lot of cases, too much red tape. So even if we were in the office we weren’t doing anything. It used to be that our bosses were insistent we had to be physically present from 8-5 outside of lunch. After Covid nobody cared. I left for the private sector last year, certainly can’t get away with that stuff where I am now.

Kinda ruining that City of Champions beanie. I know "attempting to overthrow the republic and install a dictator" is worse, but y'know, I'm just saying.

They sling em at Skampa. Hot Box at Bow Market in Union Square is also nearby and pretty good too.

Reply to comment by Hot_Salamander3795 in Where can I get the best goddamn cheesecake in Boston? by Hot_Salamander3795
NYT has a great cheesecake recipe. Add 1 tsp cinnamon to the crust and 2 tsp lemon juice + 2 tsp lemon zest to the filling. Bake it at the temp they say but don't take it out until the crust starts to brown, their recommended time is not enough. Best goddamn cheesecake I ever did have
