DC Metrorail

About a week ago Faith and I went out for a few drinks in Arlington, and left it a little late coming home. We raced into the metro station, unsure when the last train back to Vienna was, knowing a taxi would be pretty expensive.

AJE: Have we missed the last train?
Attendendent: Yes, by about 5 minutes
AJE: Nevermind

As we were walking out I noticed the sign that said

LAST TRAINS:
    Vienna-Fairfax (GMU)    12:18
    New Carollton               11:42

I looked at my watch, and it was 12:10.

AJE: But it says last train is 12:18
Attendent: Yeah, but that's for Vienna
AJE: We're going to Vienna
Attendent: Oh, i thought you were going to New Carollton

A textbook case of misinformation combined with ridiculous excuse.
