Long Lines

Today in Bangkok on the way back to mr room I faced rush hour again. There were long waits and overcrowded sky trains, the buses and streets were filled with people. The worse thing I saw were the long lines for a rot doo (public transit van). The ques were
multi lane and hundred people long, rather an incredible sight. Each person probably had a 2 hour wait followed by a long uncomfortable van ride (12-15 persons per van)closer to home then a motorcycle taxi to their actual house.

Imagine working a long hard day then facing multiple connections and that long rot doo line each and every workday. You might not get home till 11 pm, then a quick supper and off to bed so you had enough sleep to get to work early the next morning.
