I was walking to work today, and walked by a bus stop. This bus stop is about a 15-minute walk to the downtown area, and 99 percent of the people in the morning are going to the downtown work area.
There was a relatively young and healthy-looking woman sitting on the bench, and she was on the phone. As I walked by, it was apparent that she was talking to the bus district, and she was chewing them out. She was talking about how long she had waited and that she was going to be late for work and was asking about how she could file a complaint. "This is ridiculous," she said at one point.
Granted, there's a 1 percent chance that she was going past downtown, and maybe there's a chance that she had some non-visible disability, but the odds are that she was waiting and getting frustrated for a bus to take her to a place that's a 15-minute walk. If she waited more than 15 minutes, she could have just walked.
I really don't understand all the people taking the bus along my walking route. I'm willing to bet that some of them stand and wait for the bus longer than it would take them to walk.
