Being a daily commuter, I never visit a ticket office, so There's always one. There are no doubt several hundred thousand of us who interact with the Several hundred thousand? Wow, so many in a city of 8.6 million. Oyster system solely via ticket barriers and the interweb. About the only time I expect to have to go to a TfL ticket office is if my card breaks. So if you don't need to use a facility then no one else does, right? Yes, because the ones out in the station can do more than just sell her a ticket, and she doesn't have to queue to do things like ask them for directions or to help guide her through the station. So you think the people in the ticket office never did anything except sell tickets? And how would you know since you never used them anyway? Also explain how suddenly a queue that would have been for the ticket office suddenly vanishes if the staff member is no longer sitting behind a window. well of course the queue vanishes why on earth would anybody queue up at a point where nothing was on offer? tim -- Spud |

You need to work on your English comprehension. Didn't you? Seems to me you were saying that because a few hundred thousand never need a ticket office they're not required. If you weren't saying that then why even mention it? I have ignored everything else you wrote because it is just as much the result of your failure to understand English. ITYM "I have ignored everything else you wrote because I don't have a valid riposte other than Ad Hominem". -- Spud |
