REPOST!!! (By request) I know very little about fashion

The story below was originally posted on Thursday, March 21, 2013. Yesterday I received an email from a huge (almost obsessed fan) who works for GO Transit who wanted to know more about the Lost & Found requests I would get before GO Transit ruined all my fun (and let's face it, yours too) and pumped some SEO and internet smarts into their Lost & Found section of their website.

I do take solace in the fact that if someone googles, "lost something on go train" my site comes up as 'hits' #5 and #6, but up until early 2014, my site would fill the first page of Google.

So let's enjoy what was and mourn what will never be again.

    "Did your staff find my phone". That's some entitled nonsense right there.

    Wow. Just...wow.

    On a side note, I would LOVE to know how people connect the dots and think "@crazytrain" is a legitimate metrolinx email.

    Seriously, how do so many people mistake your cell phone number as an official GO Transit customer service line?????

    It really boggles me how dense and/or lazy some people are and don't bother to read!!!

    Then again, based on the fact that someone would spend a probably ridiculous amount of money on a "Chanel" case.........

    Lol, filing a complaint to GO about someone whom they thought was GO but wasn't. Priceless.

    This was pretty mean. Shame on you all for laughing. How would you feel if you lost something valuable and this is how you were treated?

    @Denise, 9:10pm: Most people know the difference between the legit GO site and a satire site devoted to the comedic antics of GO users.

    Those that don't.... oh well. More fodder for the rest of us.

    With luck, they'll mistake the number for GO and file a complaint with you instead!
