Hi @jaz,
you got struck by one of the 4 arc-enemies of german railways ( #DB): autumn. #SFSCON Btw. this reminds me, my quarterly #letter (sic) to my parliament representatives (💪) concerning railway services is overdue.

Wish you good luck! 🍀

Luckily I started my journey to London early. First train to take is already 20 minutes late. Re-organising connections. 🤷‍♂️ #trauerspiel #db

Liebe #DeutscheBahn #DB, 3x mal die gleiche Mail mit der gleichen Rechnung (meine neue BahnCard) — das weckt dann doch Misstrauen. Schaut euch das nochmal an, bitte. Ich habe die Rechnung genau 1 mal bezahlt. Das muss reichen :)

It's fairly quiet in Hamburg central station. The little Hobbit (btw. Today is International Hobbit Day) is enjoying the moving trains and people.

We just waved at a deceased #pigeon that wasn't there some days ago. One that we did spot is now gone. Which makes me wonder if DB employs "dead pigeon catchers" in this station. Any #DB / #Bahn staff on Mastodon that can give insight?

In an hour we'll take our last train of the trip. The Eurocity back to Denmark.

Ahaha. "Not even AI can enable us to do the basic functions of our job. We need an even stronger Buzzword! We need Quantum!"

Tjo, und jetzt bekommt hier jemand im ICE der nur gebrochen Deutsch spricht ein erhöhtes Beförderungsentgelt aufgedrückt, weil die DB Navigator App ihn ausgeloggt hat, er das Passwort nur auf dem Laptop hat der zuhause liegt und das Ticket ohne BahnCard nicht gültig ist. Null Kulanz vom Bahnpersonal. Der Screenshot von heute Morgen wird nicht akzeptiert.

Leute, genau wegen so einer Scheisse geht mir der #Digitalzwang der #DB tierisch auf den Sack.
