    What do I do when there’s no bus route anywhere near my work? I cycle when it’s weather appropriate but I ain’t cycling to work in 20°C heatwave.

      20 c is a heatwave? Isn’t that like 68 F? I’d think 30+ is heatwave territory.

        Nah, 30° is hot, heatwave territory is 35+

          Fair enough. I start to get grumpy at 24 but I grew up in the desert SW USA but have acclimated to our temperate PacNW weather. I’d say similar to Manchester and Liverpool but summers definitely get hotter.

          Yeah the suggestion was “organize for better bus routes and in the meantime don’t go to work”. Exactly what was said. Word for word.

          Lmao exactly. I’m all for better public transportation but these comments seem like they’re from kids who don’t have people depending on them for a roof and food.

          Let me lose my job so I can go yell into the void for better bus routes

            Except you’re the two being childish.

            If you don’t have a bus route, no one is here telling you to hitch hike or cycle in heat stroke weather for long commute or not go to work. Can you please point out where I or anyone here said so?

            But “what can I do” was the question.

            You can recognize the benefits of a good urban infrastructure and public transportation, highlight the lacking infrastructure in your areas, and support the goals of building that up by contacting your local officials or participating with groups who do organize.

            This “child” lives within walking distance of his work office (for the few times I even have to to in) and on a bus route that can get me there as well (a bus system that is highly lacking in its own ways, to which I make note of to my local council).

            I guess I should act like an “adult” and go “oh your work isn’t near a bus route. What can I do? Guess nothing.”

            That is how we solve problems.

            This post isn’t attacking you for your area’s lack of infrastructure.

            Your ability to think, or rather the lack of it, is astounding.

      You’re quite picky. Appropriate for a 1st Worlder, I might say.
