    Finally on a bus, but fuck me that was a long (and cold) wait.

    It really is shite, you’d think it’d be an easy fix too; each inspector costs 100k a year, drop them and the ticketing system and it’s quite likely it’d break even (also, y’know, it’s a public service. I already pay for it out of my taxes, why am I getting double-charged?)

      It’s definitely insane how expensive buses are relative to the quality of service. I’ve relied on PT for most of my adult life but I won’t lie, I don’t miss it for the most part over here.
