Work experience takes over Southern Rail’s Twitter to give people something to smile about for once
No h8 here
After a period of delays, cancellations and complaining customers, Southern Rail’s Twitter is climbing its way back after handing the reigns over to a 15-year-old work experience student.
Customers quickly turned to praise and even a bit of friendly banter on the social media platform, as work-exp Eddie made the most of his opportunity, advising customers on everything from dinner to sloths.
Animal welfare was a big issue
Probably a sloth. I can't picture them running away. ^Eddie

I love Chow Mein, but I heard that Dim Sun is also very good so it's up to you. Just make sure you've got 1/2

But things soon got serious
Hi, it has to be a war monger. The fish monger at my nearest ASDA is amazing. ^Eddie

And the panic was real when Eddie was momentarily lost
Thank God for that. I was getting concerned and had a swat team ready. We've got your back Eddie. Grand job!

Because there’s nothing else that the police should be panicking about
Is it lunchtime yet? We miss Eddie! Although I'm sure you're great too Amy ?

Whilst Eddie’s expertise on trains was rather limited
Hi Eddie can you drive a train ?
— Peter Wilson (@rsolondon) July 11, 2017
His science knowledge was on point
Hi, for an unladen swallow, it is 50-65mph.. #google ^Eddie
— Southern (@SouthernRailUK) July 11, 2017
And overall his experience was insightful
Hi, it has been such an insightful period and it keeps getting better! ^Eddie
— Southern (@SouthernRailUK) July 11, 2017
With many happy customers as a result
Huge respect to you Eddie! Smashing it mate pic.twitter.com/h6snWmNB5p
