I am FUCKED OFF with my commute

[BrownEyesWin]

I pay a small fortune every year to guess which bodily fluid or product the bus will smell like every day.

The 'vehicle' I was on today was strongly scented AND vibrated violently every time it stopped. My teeth are significantly looser than they were this morning.

The drivers are total pricks who deliberately drive through puddles to splash pedestrians, drive off when they see folk coming and go out of their bloody way to be unhelpful and rude.

It grinds my gears to mutter 'Thank you, driver', it really does.

I fucking hate it.

.

Well could you drive it ? Or lift share ?

I vowed last year I would never board a bus again.
Felt less scared at Alton Towers.
Had travel sickness for about 5 days I kid you not.

I HATE the bus. But I love the smug feeling of zipping past it on my bike and knowing I'm not trapped in TfL hell.

I know cycling doesn't work for everyone, though.

I feel less scared and more pissed off

I was the only one in my year who failed Cycling Proficiency in Y5, so doubt cycling is for me!

That sounds like a terrible commute. What a terrible start and finish to your day. I Hope you can find an alternative?

I got the bus back from the mot centre when my well intentioned 4 mile walk got too much towards the end!

It cost me £2.50 to travel half a mile..

It it’s cheeper to drive tbf and at least you only have to smell your own farts..

Yes it annoys me that a return to work costs £3.80 and a single is £3.60. I don't enjoy staring at myself on a screen either. I know they film you on a bus but to sit on a bus watching yourself and others really puts me off.

I pay over a grand a year to stand in someone's armpit.
