I was having the perfect day today. That is until you (Calgary Transit) had to go out and ruin it for me. On a normal day to get to 17th avenue from Mount Royal it takes 15 minutes. But, since the roads and weather were so shitty. I planned ahead I left my school at 5:35PM to get to my destination on 17th Avenue by 6:30PM. I not only missed that appointment, but also had to endure waiting in the blizzard weather for 50 minutes. I’ve grown to expect that bus 2 to City Center no longer follows its schedule, even before this whole fiasco. So, when I called the bus route schedule and it said it wasn’t coming for another 16 minutes I expected that it wouldn’t come for another 20-25. Little did I know it would take around 45 minutes! Then, on my connection home I waited at Whitehorn Station for another 40 minutes. The trek home was a total disaster. Cars kept stopping movement of the bus because they would be stuck in the snow, and the bus driver would ask all the guys to go out and push the cars. This group of 4 guys and I had to push this one car half a block before it could move by itself. Never rely on Calgary Transit to help you get to places on time.
