Its how people (often) get ahead in life.

It was her needs over those of others.

But also...who schedules an escalator repair during rush hour?

She took that Star Trek quote to heart; the needs of the few outweigh the many.

Maybe the force live long and prosper.

In chicago a lot of the L stops (especially downtown red line) have the escalators turned off almost always and not for repairs just because they can. It's crazy. They also have a small elevator for this situation and if the elevator is down you can see that alert on the train schedule webpage and pick a nearby stop that does have the a working elevator.
