That's how it is in most metropolitan areas. Your best bet is to live nearby school/work. That works until you get married or buy a house. In Japan trains are always on time to the second, but train pushers are absolutely horrifying: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=axwMxUBL_ws That’s odd, we can track it online:

It's just a matter of time. In a decade or two few people will be able to afford the gasoline anymore so the traffic jams will disappear. Thom, traffic jams are universal.

When it's fall, most trains can't ride because there's leaves on the tracks... :| When there's a power outage in Rotterdam, all trains everywhere in the Netherlands get disrupted and travelling takes 2 hours longer all of a sudden. When two people are walking inside the "Schiphol-tunnel", no train can enter or leave the tunnel, and again all trains get disrupted. When none of this happens, trains are not on time for no specific reason. Guess it's still better then in Bulgaria, but well.. it's still shitty!

We certainly don't have it here in Bulgaria.. but we do have the bottlenecks. Don’t you have excellent train transportation?
