I never thought it was this bad until I picked it but on the weekends it's just nutty. Imagine having to work a double and triple street then add on to that not having any reliefs. I haven't had any easy time on cottage until my very last trip of evening around 10:30. Currently there is only 6 buses out there and I unfortunately have to go work on that street. I wish CTA would do something about this because it keeps getting worse and worse. I had one passenger tell me that had to wait nearly 2 hours for a bus because they had to keep switching buses due to no reliefs getting made. That to me is unacceptable and should be looked into if it hasn't already because I have get caught in the crossfire of tension from the passengers. I'm grateful it hasn't gotten violent but I'm starting wonder what the breaking point.

Expand Yeah I saw an artic in the front of the turnaround. If 2 artics go in there then dont ask me how the #53A goes in there cause theres really no room. Was driving around and noticed the irving pk cumberland bathroom for the operators is a port-o-potty. I was like really, what happened to the bathroom they had? I hate port-o -potties. They opened a gas station down the street. I'd probably just take a personal there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand Yeah i've normally had to honk my horn to get one of them to move and reposition themselves in the terminal and trust me it is a tight squeeze. I've noticed a lot of port-o-potty's pop back up recently. I remember when I had 87th street on the weekends last pick that I would have to use the regular bathroom at the damen terminal before going to Western,Cicero and Commercial because of the port-o-potty getting removed for a few months. As much I as loved my runs on 87th not having anywhere to go for a quick bathroom break at the end of each terminal other than damen became torture for me.

I work for a VA, and the new rapid testing allows for results on the same day. The same test may be available at private sites, like the Jewel-Osco.

strictures Posted October 1, 2020 Report Share Posted October 1, 2020 The buses are finally gone from in front of the police stations. Now if that fool Lightfoot would put the cops back in the districts & off of Michigan Ave., with their lights flashing all day, maybe crime in the neighborhoods would start to go down!
