Getting ready for Winter

Winter seems to have struck early here in Calgary.

It’s left me with a bit of a conundrum for getting to work.  All of the transit options in this city suck including driving your own car.

• The buses are never on time, and always delayed or late
• The C-Train doesn’t get me to the office, and gets hung up a lot in the cold and doesn’t run often enough
• The roads don’t get cleared or salted, and it gets to -40 degrees so biking is both dangerous and frigid
• The side walks also are icy, not cleaned so walking is slow, dangerous and cold.
• Parking is stupid expensive in this city, and traffic sucks
• Innovative car sharing option car2go trades the parking concern with finding an available car within walking distance

Luckily I only have to be in the office 2 days a week.
