Cut them some slack. Their prefrontal lobes are still growing.
totally.
People actually are annoyed with this? Too bad! I bet some of them are the same people that support using public transportation to save the environment. Public transportation if for the public, if you don't like it, then drive or ride a bike or call a cab. You pay very little to get from point A to B, not for a ride of luxury.
More importantly, these are high school kids who have a school that isn't offering student bus service and uses the already existing CTA instead.
The complaints should go to the schools and CTA, not those that use the service.
And for the record, I am annoyed by far more adults on buses and and trains compared to students.
I'm annoyed more by the CTA itself! If I want to read and it's noisy, I just put my headset on and listen to music.
Telling: the two female complainers live in relatively well-to-do neighborhoods on the north side.
Boo.
