I love riding the bus. I get in more walking & it's nice to read, talk to the people on the bus, or just look out the window & not deal with traffic.

Working for a company that offers it's employees an Eco-pass is a great bonus. I don't work for one now, but I have. They were also more cognizant of bus schedules & gave employees more latitude in start/end times, to meet the schedule.
