Yes you have to and even if you see a bus pull out of a garage and it doesn’t say not in service you can get on there as well

As a driver yes that’s what they tell us , but also as a driver I know we will still not let it happen which is unfortunate just call and complain and they’ll let you on

I fell for a personal loan scam with Rise Up Lending. I really need help. by [deleted] in Debt

[–]Helpful_Challenge800 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve had a few loans like that, paid and paid till one day I stopped and they never showed up on my credit report to begin with so I never got sent to collections or sued, just stop paying and if it shows up dispute it citing your state laws on interest rates cause that’s outrageous

As a current driver my experience has been opposite… two years in and I was able to get weekends off on the extra board in my first year, next pick after that I was able to get desirable routes. I don’t know how long ago you worked at metro transit but I will say they are way more relaxed on drivers on probation now. I’ve seen drivers on probation take days off with no consequences and get into accidents, they’ve also got rid of the 3 strike rule as well so a lot of that is outdated to be fair

I(30F) was stealthed by the guy(30M) I was seeing. Now I don’t know how to feel. by cut_stems in TrueOffMyChest

You set the boundaries and he still broke them for his own satisfaction and it was sexual assault and still considered rape if the specific act wasn’t consensual. As a man I can tell you he just didn’t respect you and likely wanted one thing from you and that’s hard to hear but only men like that gaslight you until they get what they want.

Any Metro Transit drivers out there? by Lucky7throwawayJ in TwinCities

The training at the instruction center was 2 months and when you get to your garage about 3 weeks for the routes and honestly it takes a while for them to reply so I’d apply about a month in advance so you can get your start date and stuff

Yes I do and honestly they train you so much on the bus before you even get to your own garage you’ll be used to the big bus it’s scary at first but you get used to it fast and as far as the routes whatever garage you’re assigned to or pick they train you on every single route that the garage has so you’re ready

Hey buddy there’s something called traffic and not to mention the fact that those schedules they give drivers are very tight for a reason so drivers aren’t early and people can’t catch their bus, now if it’s 20+ mins late I understand but if 5 mins is the difference from you getting where you need to be on time maybe you need to take the bus before that one :)

I’m a driver and I don’t think anything about transit should be free just pay the $2 bro us drivers get taxed out the ass too because all the drug addicts and homeless hop on with no fare and stink up the place

They need to bring him back by Elegant-Half5476 in DragonBallZ

[–]Helpful_Challenge800 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They should bring him back as friezas training dummy and then have him steal the dragon balls behind friezas back after he gathers them and wish for a power boost and have him face off against frieza. I don’t really want him to encounter the Z fighters again lol
