🚌 arrived at 6:55am. Notable bc schedule is 7:17a which means 🪟 opens at 7a. However 🚌 only required to wait 5min. Of course single-parenting this week, so wasn’t ready at 6:55. Luckily 🚌 waited, but they also didn’t know schedule changed from 7:07a. 🤯#ShareYourBusStory

- Message this morning says 30 mins late because of police activity
- Another message says the bus is 30 mins early
What time will the bus arrive? 🤔
