Had I not experienced it I would not have
believed it. At about 2.45 p.m. on March 11, I went to the ferry ticket
office at Scarborough to purchase a ticket for travel to Port of Spain
on March 14. I joined the line which had about 15 to 20 persons ahead
of me.
At 3 p.m., the Port Authority of Trinidad and Tobago (PATT)
employees selling tickets advised persons in the line that they were
closed and they would be reopening at 4 p.m. I was amazed but the
regular travellers did not appear to be surprised.
I then noticed a sign which stated the opening hours as 4 a.m. to 6
a.m.; 7 a.m. to 11 a.m.; noon to 3 p.m.; 4 p.m. to 6 p.m. and 7 p.m. to
10 p.m.
Yes, the ferry ticket sales office in Scarborough is closed from 6
a.m. to 7 a.m.; 11 a.m. to 12 noon; 3 p.m. to 4 p.m. and from 6 p.m. to
7 p.m. Why?
The ticket office at the ferry terminal in Port of Spain is open from 4 a.m. to 10 p.m.
Could the Minister of Works and
Transport, the Chief Secretary of the THA, the Secretary for Tourism of
the THA or the management of the Port Authority kindly inform me and
other members of the travelling public whether the ticket office in
Scarborough is being operated for the convenience of passengers or at
the convenience of the staff of the PATT?
The Government, having spent approximately US$90 million of
taxpayers' money in the purchase of two "foreign-used" fast ferries
could surely "come better dan dat'' where the sale of tickets at the
fast ferry terminal in Scarborough is concerned.

Ah boy, here we go a-focking-gain. Listen, and listen carefully.
Nigga is not people. They not even donkeys. So put away that idea of
receiving the same service from a nigger that you would expect from a human
or a donkey.
If you want to employ a nigga, you have to know how to "wok dem".
Niggers can't work for too long. They need frequent breaks. They have a
shorter memory span than a chicken, and a chicken has a 3-second memory
span. That's why the chicken does always run from the nigger - because
the chicken remembered the same nigger bulling it 2 seconds before, but
the nigger think it's a different chicken he bulling. Or he think he
running down a duck.
Anyway, the point is that to get the most out of a nigger employee,
(which really isn't any more than you'd get if you had hired a hermit
crab instead), you need to work them for 1, maybe 2 hours, and then let
them run loose in the backyard for an hour or two. This will
temporarily return them to their natural habitat, the bush, and allow
them to bull a chicken or two, dig a hole in the sand, drink some water
from a bucket, jock, shit next to the hole they just dig, make 4 laps
around the yard again, step on the shit they just take, start cussing,
forget what they was cussing about because 3 seconds passed, jock again
because they can't find a chicken to bull, and then go back inside when
they hear the bell.
Hence the "stop-start" working hours. Is niggas we deal with here, boy, niggers...
