It is a real nightmare to get on I-4 after the Solar Bears and Orlando City play. Why would they continue to do this every year? That is well over 10,000 fans leaving downtown at the same time! The parking to get into the games is absolutely horrible. Please stop doing this to the fans, who pay a lot of money to support their teams.<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 I am ticked that there are discussions on local news about what certain signs on our roadways mean.\u00a0 What really ticks me off is that we still have these signs at all. They go unheeded and unenforced, so why do we still have them? They are an environmental disaster and serve no purpose. I think it is time we get rid of the eyesores that are unnecessary.<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 It ticks me off that TSA agents are not getting paid for doing their jobs while Congress is getting paid for not doing their jobs! It\u2019s just wrong.<\/p>\n<p>The flip side<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 For the second time, I just had a wonderful experience on the Brightline train. Every single staff person was friendly and helpful and they have people all over the station making sure you know where you\u2019re going. They even offered a small credit because the train was a little bit late. I could not recommend this train more if you want to go to South Florida. Thank you for doing such an amazing job for the community.<\/p>\n<p>NEED TO VENT?: I\u2019m Ticked Off! Are you?
