I work downtown. I personally take the bus to work and walk.
While getting feedback from our paid intern’s experience, one complained about having to pay for parking.
Because I naturally always support the interns, I pushed for that perk. Why shouldn’t they get all the help they need? They’re young, they have a busy life and they’re trying their best.
But my coworker (who drives) said, “Theres street parking and they are complaining they have to walk 14 minutes over.”
Now my internal “Fuck Cars” position is battling with my “Give the Interns everything”.
I’m not the deciding factor. Just wanted to share this.
Better outcome: people being compensated for greener/healthier commuting. Walk, you young MFers!
Yeah, free transit passes is a good push in the right direction.
They prolly live in suburbs because of crime in the city… So public transit is too high risk for these elites
