I think people living on the mainland and working on the Island should just find a place to stay close to work from Mon-Fri cos of stress.

Well, my days are pretty routine. I wake up at the crack of dawn, actually at the Muslim's call to prayer, cos there is a mosque opposite my house.
Then I surf the net, scavenge for news, reply mails and messages.
At 7am I fix breakfast.
As in the civil service, work should resume by 8am, but being a senior staff, I sometimes leave home at 8.30am just so as not to be caught in traffic. My work is 5mins from home.
I pace myself at work, and usually would be done for the day by 1pm. (except on occasions where I have to man the Emmergency unit)

Mine is just too stressful.i work at lekki so i wakeup 4:30am and leave 5:10am get a brt from iyanaipaja to cms 180 then cms to lekki 150.coming back is even 400naira from lekki to iyanaipaja.

bluish:
Hi dear, I work in Lekki as well, please where do you board CMS to Lekki for #150? Cos most times, I board it 250-300 at the park. Thank you

OreofeeOluwa:
thats too expensive o.The brt usually stop at tbs so i'll just trek to the park and take it 150.Even without going to tbs,at their park its 200.

I am just like you.

I easily get tired of driving through Lagos traffic so before going out, I look out to the express to check if the road is free, if the road isn't I set out to take the bus but then you get to the bus-stop and immediately i start having regrets as to why I didn't drive my car:

Reason for regrets includes:

1. Staying too long at the bus stop cos the Oshodi bus available is either going to bolade or Oshodi express but won't get to Oshodi Underbridge.

2. When i eventually gets Underbridge bus, the driver reaches Underbridge then he refuses to stop, he continue driving till he gets to somewhere closer to mushin than the Oshodi I paid for before matching break and d conductor starts screaming "Oya! E Bole"

3. Na only me comot for house and I paid for only myself but when I reach my bus stop, the conductor will merge me with 3 other people when I ask for my #150 naira change

4. The distance from the place where the Oshodi bus drops me to the next park to enter Bariga bus will make me always call pure water sellers.


5. I have to put on a face cap whenever I'm not driving cos I know there's possibility of staying under sun for too long at one spot due to not getting bus on time.

6. I put an eyeglass in my backpack cos it will be useful if I have to call "okada" whenever the cost of entering bus during Agege Motor way traffic is almost similar in value to that of taking Okada. I wear the eyeglass to prevent dust from entering my eyes.


7. Be ready to deal with pepper, onion, goat shit, etc smell if you enter Abule-egba bus from Ile-epo

8. Sweat, dust, dirt from public transport chair and sometimes the rusted metal body of the bus will put ur clothes in a situation of pity and you wished you just not so lazy with driving.



Despite all, I enjoy entering public transport cos u meet other pple, I can use my phone when not driving therefore my business doesn't pause, the fights and arguments are always anticipated cos they are usually entertaining and I sometimes like listening to hearing the chants by the conductors whenever they want to hail the union guys that collects money from them.



Mixed feeling; I will still leave my car at home tomorrow to enter bus to Computer village, Ikeja (I go enter Ikeja Inside, and I go "wole pelu changi mi"

bluish:
Pls o, which Park, cos I also board at the park, although I alight at CMS, and board from CMS Park. should I alight at TBS instead?
Pls help a sister cut cost on T-fare o

OreofeeOluwa:
lolz. Yes just alight at tbs.just ask anybody lekki/ajah park its nt far.its in front of a building that has kfc and banks too are also in that building.

sweetilicious:
