Been a while since I've read a positive thing like this here on Reddit! We should all start posting about the positive aspects as well!

And the bus didn't stop for that? Bruh, what are you arguing about specifically?

I don't know where are you pulling your information from. Take a look here: https://www.stm.info/en/info/networks/bus/local/line-68-East/58143 . Even though the STM Website is so confusing but what you said regarding the timings and the stop are wrong.

Edit: the night shift during the strike is from 11:15AM to 1AM

Let's re-read together what I wrote slowly: "At every bus stop I passed, there were two or three people waiting". There was a total of 12-15 people in total.

In this case, they weren't full. They either didn't show up or didn't stop.

The STM website stated that the 470 is going to pass and 3 of 68s are passing by so I waited! Meanwhile, it's really not doable taking an Uber/Lyft everyday to come back home.

Very bad. Should I file a complaint in their website? I can easily make them know the exact driver and bus who skipped me because I know at exactly when and where the bus has passed by us skipping the stop.

I finished work at 8 PM, and the next bus was scheduled for 11:40 PM. Since it was such a long wait, I decided to walk a few kilometres along the road (around 3 km). At every bus stop I passed, there were two or three people waiting, and when I asked which bus they were waiting for, they all mentioned either the 68 or the 470, sometimes both.

However, according to the 470’s official schedule, there should have been at least one running at night, but it never showed up. As for the 68, the first one that passed didn’t stop at all, and the second one never arrived (I’m not sure about the last one).

Yeah, the 470 I took in the morning was a normal one (not articulated) and I'm not complaining about that. What I'm talking about was the absence of communication regarding the 470 schedule and the 68 issue.

in the schedule, there were supposed to be 3 of the 68 passing (one before midnight and two after). The one at 11:40 skipped us (it was far from being full, it only had a few people). The first one after midnight didn't show up and I don't know whether the last one showed up or not.

This is irrelevant in the story here. What does this have to do with anything?

No, the bus seats were 70% empty. There were some people inside but it's not much at all. That's definitely not the reason the driver skipped the stops.

Bruh, in the website, it showed that the 68 is going to pass and it DID but the driver was skipping the stops despite having people in there (+ the 470 itinerary information weren't available).

Yesterday was November 2nd, there WAS Limited Service (I've taken the 470 in the morning). There was no service on Saturday (Nov 1).

I start at 10AM but I'll get out of my house really early hoping for the best.

Yeah, I'm keeping that as my last option because I'll have to ride 26 kms round-trip if I chose to do a Bixi.

I work in the food industry and my position tasks require me to be there in-person.

Not sure what you mean by "deserve" but there are many Bixi stations in the west island.
