In Italy there’s tons of people who ride trains without tickets (we call them “furbetti”) and expect not to be fined, when that happens either they start arguing with train conductors or they straight out assault him/her.
Graaaaaamsespekruuuuum!
Unbelievable that he was dismissed in the first place. Such a flaccid nation.
Class traitor.
“He set a high standard of honesty which was simply incompatible with our company’s values”, said Trenitalia officials who requested to remain anonymous. “Our country is world famous for tasty pizza, pasta, the Sicilian Mafia, the Calabrese Mafia, and also bunga-bunga parties with underage girls run by our 85 years old billionaire prime-minister. We take pride in our system of generalized tax evasion. Nobody pays taxes in Italia! Signore Bonanno did not understand his purely decorative role on board of our trains. Worse, he had a pernicious influence on his colleagues, some of whom had started to adopt his sneaky methods of unbearable honesty. A few customers had even started buying actual *biglietti*! No, we had to fire him. We feel that the justice system has betrayed us”, concluded the officials.
Still, the request to time-stamp your train ticket *before* boarding the train is retarded to the core.
As an occasional train rider I struggle to remember to do that, and in very busy station is quite impractical to go around looking for the green or yellow box which is needed to time-stamp the ticket.
