couple years ago i was doing some freelance work at the metropolitan museum of art. the place is like a small city. literally hundreds of employees.
security took a look at my brompton folded up.
first day:
security: no bicycles in here. youll have to lock that up outside.
me: this is not a bicycle, it's sports equipment.
security: erm.. ok.
second day:
security: no bicycles OR sports equipment allowed in the facility.
me: it's not sports equipment. it's a personal transport device.
security: hmm. i see.. go ahead.
third day:
security: no personal transport devices allowed in here without certification of need, buddy.
me: this isnt a personal transport device. it's a trolly for my work gear. (s-bag attached with laptop and bento box inside.)
security: in that case, you'll have to enter through the service entrance on the other side of the building.
me: no problem
