WES (Westside Express Service) Preview Ride
How cool! I received an invitation (thanks TriMet!) to RSVP for a WES Preview Ride. So it looks like I’ll be riding the WES later this week. I’ll try to get some pictures (or even some video?) and a nice comprehensive post on how the experience went probably this coming weekend.
Anyone have any specifics they […]

Reason 2: taking dog in bag on bus gal
Why do I continue to manage and run TriMetiquette? It’s because of weird instances of breaking the rules like the taking her dog in a bag on the bus gal. I’m a fairly soft-spoken guy; I’m not one to be the center of attention nor do I typically speak up in rule-breaking instances such as […]
Reason 1: Fare Inspector checking-his-phone guy
Why does TriMetiquette keep on rolling? Because of instances like fare inspectors checking their cell phones instead of checking fares! We all know that look: the “*whistle* Just checking my phone, trying to look preoccupied…” Wait - none of you know that look…?
In any case, TriMetiquette was created for those looking for an outlet to […]

That’s right! TriMetiquette is looking for any graphic designer or artsy-fartsy individual who wants to try to tackle a new TriMetiquette logo. To put it simply, I was contacted by TriMet and was asked to not use their logo. And seeing as how I’m Photoshop-impaired (though, I will say I am awesome at making obviously […]
