I love checking out other transit blogs. Whether they are about the technical side of transport or from the perspective of a commuter, it’s always interesting to see other views about the transit systems we all ride. Today I have a very cool blog from the perspective of the commuter. I wish more people shared regular thoughts about their daily commute.
Musings of an Irate Commuter is authored by Sheryl Yvette. She has a variety of posts from fare hikes to bus driver reviews, and a really groovy spreadsheet that helps you decide which Metrocard is best for your commuting situation.
Her latest post is worth a look even if you aren’t into transit. Each day for the last month Sheryl took photos of a newspaper bin which has been used as a trashcan. It wasn’t emptied for over a month and it’s interesting to look at how some commuting pigs use the bin as their own waste deposit. Apparently there is no half-life for McDonalds french fry wrappers. Here’s one photo from the collection:
