Station Agent Marcia Joshua is being recognized after one rider reached out to say she helped make his day.

Marcia was "attentive to detail, kind, a great conversationalist. She talked about the importance of being helpful and always assisting customers despite challenges she's faced over the years," the rider said.

"Always give 110% to your job no matter what that job is," Marcia said. "I love to travel, so I especially have a fondness for the tourists visiting our city. The subways can be challenging even for a local. So I give the tourists as much info as I can."



In the day-to-day scrum of life, each of us can have profound impacts on others simply by taking the time to listen to their needs, be helpful, and be kind.
