A long, long time ago…
I took the 30 between downtown and the Marina for work. My bus driver home was always Andrew (though I didn’t know his name then).
A long time ago…
I would commute between Fulton & Arguello to Powell and back for work. The way to work was the 5, but the way back was the 21 (since the 5 turns around at 6th after a certain hour). My bus driver was Andrew! Always.
After I introduced myself and told him I used to ride the 30 with him, we got to talking every night on my commute home. I learned all about Muni’s crazy pay rules (hazard pay when working after a certain hour, etc) and how muni drivers got their routes.
That is no longer my bus, so I am sad to say I don’t see Andrew anymore. He is/was a great driver 🙂
p.s. the 21 is 3121x better than the 31-Balboa at night!
