Before spending time in Monterey / Salinas: WTF, Muni bus frequency is so bad, TWELVE MINUTES??
Now: YAY, ONLY TWELVE MINUTES
(I mainly take 49 so am used to buses coming every 5 min)
I once went on stage and talked about ny relationship with buses in SF and elsewhere

@kkeller yeah when I miss the bus from work, I just walk it (40 min instead of 5, but also no waiting 40 min for the next one)

@skinnylatte my kid is planning a trip to Monterey, and asked what bus service would be like. I said "maybe every 30-60 minutes?" He was appalled!
I am spoiled by the Mission buses; when I have to take the 44 bus I get so annoyed!

@ccshan I definitely get annoyed by more than 5 if in Singapore

@skinnylatte Threads is full of Taipei residents complaining about 8-minute subway headways 🤯

@ccshan the ‘where’s the bus stop’ thing is still real. My wife doesn’t take the bus unless she sees a physical bus stop, which means she doesn’t take the bus a lot unless I’m with her. Haha

@skinnylatte I enjoyed your storytelling! You did not express any sense of Singaporean superiority ;)
