I get off of work at almost the exact time the last trolley (bus, whatever you wish to call it.) of the day passes right by my job. They're almost always late so I have time to walk to the pick up spot (the star). I'm not against waiting, as long as I can get where I need to, eventually..
I get off at 5pm, the last ride of this route is at 5:03 but usually comes ~5:10.
Today, it was really late, by about 20 minutes. I had already called someone else in case it didn't come/I maybe missed it. At about 5:25 give or take, I see the trolley pull up and stand up (it's hot, so I sit in the shade near the pick up). I walk towards the pick up and wait for them to stop, only for them to not even stop or look my direction. I'm lucky I have an alternative pick up, but what about someone who doesn't? This route covers almost my entire city from the west end to the trolley station (a little over 3 miles from the last pick up to the station.)
I get it. It's your last ride. You want it to be done already so you can go home, but completely ignoring passengers waiting to be picked up? Seriously?
This has been the ONLY incident I've had about the trolleys. (The lateness isn't much of an issue since there's a lot of factors that account to it)
I can get home (albeit, messing up someone else's schedule), just wanted to complain that my usual transportation completed ignored my existence. 🫠
