Member @lohplaces concerned w/Bethesda already a station it would add to confusion created by having Farragut North & West, Pentagon & Pentagon City, Hyattsville & the future "Hyattsville Crossing." #wmata

Board member Matt Letourneau says name changes are often unpopular when they happen, but the controversy often goes away after a time. #wmata #WhiteFlint #NorthBethesda
Despite a lot of concerns, the committee voted unanimously to move forward with changing White Flint to North Bethesda. The full Metro board of directors still has to vote later today, but it appears likely it will approve the name change as well. #wmata
I have been a loyal @wmata rider for 9 years now. I have not once had a negative interaction with a metro employee - until tonight. The station manager @ #whiteflint declined to let me use the customer restroom. I now know why @unsuckdcmetro exists. 1/
@wmata @unsuckdcmetro @unsuckdcmetro Upon approaching the station manager, his back was turned to me while speaking with someone else. I approached without saying a word, and the other man looked over the station manager's shoulder at me which caught the attn of said station mgr 2/
@wmata @unsuckdcmetro @unsuckdcmetro the first words out of out of station mgr's mouth were not "how can I help you?" but "you couldn't say 'excuse me'? You can't see this other man and I are speaking?" I replied, "can I please use the customer restroom?" 3/
