Just a thought, but maybe you should just shred up your charming little bus schedules – it’s not like the numbers inside mean a thing – and use the shredded paper to make bonfires at every bus stop. If someone wants to know when the bus is coming, they can just move to a city that has a decent metro system, easy peasy! Think about it. —Pissed Passenger

thank you!
Hahahaha this is great. I’ll bring some wieners and marshmellows to roast while waiting for the 52 that NEVER FUCKING COMES EVER when I’m waiting, but always seems to appear whenever I don’t need it.
mmmmarshmellows!!
Hahahaha. This is so funny…and fucking redundant. Your problem isn’t with the transit system OP but with the city who doesn’t do anything to relieve the traffic congestion problems that keep the buses from being on time. Unless, you think that buses can fly…
Just use the schedule to learn the time gap between busses, and expect to wait exactly that long.
S’what I do, No Dogma!
i am so chuffed to see wesley crusher and his sweater♥ it was the religion thread wasn’t it? no dogma rawk?
If people hate Metro Transit so much, why do they continue using it? As long as you continue to pump out the money to for shit service, you’ll always get shit service. Here’s hoping for a bitterly cold, dry, windy winter.
Bravo Op Bravo!
That is what happens when the supervisors dont care what the drivers do. They can be late or better yet not show up at all.
whas a matter o.pp., don’t know how to read. everytime i take a bus, it is usually there, give or take a minute, when it is sposed to be. do you need someone with a brain to explain it to you, or are you just bitching, because they don’t come when you want, at your beck and call.
@ paingirl: It was the religion thread……
…that made me need to take a break from LTWWB? lol
No way! Bring it on! I can’t wait for another one of those to start up. Hopefully the original is still in the top rankings for thread length.
I don’t know how to explain why I was gone other than I just hit too many bitches I wasn’t interested in in a row, and lost interest.
Hmm…that didn’t come out right…
Bus bitch, bus bitch, bus bitch, bus schedule bitch, bus bitch, bus bitch, bus driver bitch, bus bitch, bus bitch..
UGGHHH when will it ennnddddd
Hey Bon, nice talking out of your ass when you have no clue, eh? Now, for the facts. There is no doubt that Metro Transit is a poorly run company, and for that fact so is HRM. Combined you get some fuckups along the way; but the biggest reasons for buses being late is a lack of working buses and drivers. Factor in traffic in this poorly designed city, and you get an unreliable transit system.
OP, before you shred your booklet with all those number and make little fires with them, why don’t you read one of the pages in there (don’t ask the page number as I don’t remember) but it states something along the lines of, we do our best to stay on schedule, but due to construction, weather conditions and other traffic snarls. Transit cannot control these things thus making their buses late, so OP STFU!
You know what *I* love? When your bus is late to begin with and then the driver decides to stop at the next terminal (which he got into late), shut the bus off and go get a coffee at Tims. Yeah, that happened this morning.
Well, fuck you mr bus 730 driver out of lacewood at 9:25am (which turned into almost 9:40am). Obviously you don’t know the concept of keeping on schedule. I can see taking a break at the end or beginning of a route, but right in the middle when you’re already late? Some of us don’t have the luxury of working when WE want to work and actually need to get to work ontime. And I sure wish I could just blow off work in the middle of a shift to feed my caffeine addiction.
