Why not to run to catch the train…

So yesterday I am standing as usual on the train station waiting for the freaking train to arrive and hoping I can have a seat, since I hate standing, for 20 minutes. My train passes by, and the front car is nearly empty, so I dashed out to catch it. I did, but in the process of running like a gazelle, with the grace of an elephant, my work issued phone, flew out my phone carrier, landing on the ledge and bouncing down to the tracks.
I ended up waiting an 1hr, until rush time was over, so that someone could stop a train, walk into the operator cabin, open a small hatch, step into the track and pickup my damn phone. The entire operation took less than 5 minutes. Bravo for the MTA!!
