Something has got to change.

It's costing me $700 a month in gas just to go to work and Southern California is screwed when it comes to transportation especially if you're a long-distance commuter. So long for saving for a house/marriage.

Im pretty against motorcycles just because it's way too dangerous with how people drive around here. Idiots everywhere when it comes to that!

where do you live?

look for train stations, you can get a month pass for like 30 bucks or something.

it takes a little long but its wayyy cheaper.

a bunch of people at my work do that.

I already tried it with time and price. I live inbetween corona and chino hills and the way you travel to get to the closest station is heavy traffic. Once I get to Irvine, I would have to do a buss route to the Lido area. We're talking upwards of 3 hours. That's not a way to live either. When it comes to public transportation here, we're screwed.

Just got to hold my breath during this time as we all do :/

i love southern california and all, but it's becoming way too expensive for people that are starting out a life.
