The Commute

According to this article from the Tribune Review, "Pittsburgh ranks fourth among large cities for the highest percentage increase in population during the workday. The influx and outflux of the city's 138,000 commuters changes the population by 41.3 percent."
I'm one of these 138,000 commuters rolling into Pittsburgh each day. I travel about an hour into the city to go to school, and another hour or so get home. It's not always fun--in fact, I can't recall a single time it was "fun." From disgruntled bus drivers to smelly passengers, from lost time to lost money--this is the chronicle of a commuter's life in transit.
