I have two options (not including the LIRR or express bus). I can either walk to the Q3 bus stop and take a slow bus that makes every stop to 179st. Then I can get on a F train that circumvents several important stops in Queens and Manhattan. From Queens to Midtown on this route is nearly an hour and a half (it's definitely over a hour and a half if I'm heading to my college in Harlem). Option #2 is quicker but entails more crowding. I can walk to the Q85 stop, get on a bus full of rowdy high school students and stand all the way to the last stop. After I disembark and inhale some combination of incense and cigarettes I can enter a filthy station where the escalator is broken 95% of the time. I'll probably have to stand on the E, even at the first stop. By Sutphin it is crush loaded. At Union Turnpike a F train pulls in on the opposite track. All of the people that used to take the F to Lex/53rd cram onto the E. By the time the E enters Roosevelt it resembles the Tokyo subway. Don't you dare call my commute easy. The average commute time is a half hour. On most days my commute is triple that amount. |
