    Not leaving margin for error.

    E.g. catch the bus/train before the one you need to. So, when it’s late or canceled there’s still the next one.

    E.g. leave slightly earlier than needed in case the traffic is bad.

      Another frequent transit user here. When people complain that I’m early for something, I like to tell them that, since I ride transit, my choices are to be early or late, but I can’t choose to be on time. 😅

      Can you teach my wife this? She leaves the house at 07:23 in the morning, because she’ll arrive at work with a minute to spare. No matter if she wakes up at 05:30, she’ll still run around like a headless chicken at 07:20 to get everything ready. It must be so stressful.
