Sometimes you take the train to the job, sometimes the train takes the job to you.

It really pisses me off when people respond to shite like this by saying they "wish he could've gotten help" or posting Suicide Hotline numbers. We don't know if this man was mentally ill. I feel pretty strongly that he wasn't schizophrenic or demented, so any "mental illness" argument boils down to "oh, he was just really sad and someone needed to give him some advice or pills to help him cope."
No, no, no- there is a story here. This isn't a matter of someone having a personality disorder and failing to seek help because of stigma or whatever. There was some rational basis for what he did. Don't obscure that with the Suicide Hotline crap. Prozac and a pat on the back would never have addressed what made this man both end his life and send a giant "frick you" to the organization he led.
That's not what people who need a Prozac and a pat on the back do.

Will he be counted as a covid death?

What a crazy marta fricker

The fact that he choose this method to take his own life is no coincidence or convenience.
I am curious if MARTA has a policy or history of paying families of those killed on their lines. I also question if he didn't attempt to make his own death appear as a work related accident in an effort to provide additional funding to his family following his death.
Either way, he is still dead. Odd, selfish choice to involve others in the immediate act.

Wonder what was so bad in his life that he would choo choose to end it like that?

This guy was into his work.

I saw on WSB online earlier he had died suddenly and unexpectedly, but no other details given. Then I see this topic. Then I go back to WSB to see if any additional details given, and the story is no longer on their site.
I'm not saying anything fishy is going on, I'm just saying it's odd.

I hope every assholes rot in hell that creates delays by jumping on the subway tracks or off an overpass into the freeway

This story seems ripe for a good conspiracy theory.

10/10 as far as suicides go.

This is directly out of a House of Cards plot
