Go Transit

Okay, i live in Scarborough, but i work downtown so everyday i am forced to take some sort of transit. Now i live in Scarborough but where i live is where the ttc officially stops, it is a place called west hill. So my choices to get downtown are...1. ttc - one bus ride, rt ride, and two subway transfers later, i am downtown, now this takes about 1h&45mins. 2. go transit - 45 minute train ride.
So go transit seems like the better option. but unfortunately they are not very reliable at all. And as time goes by they get less reliable but their prices keep going up.
Also what is with all these go transit riders, they all have to stand in specific spots and sit in specific seats. And watching them deboard is my favourite, especially at guildwood. People literally run off the train, run to their cars and then take off at high speeds to get out of the parking lot first.
Anyways these are just a few things i have noticed about riding the go train...if you guys have any amusing stories about commuting to work, i would love to hear them.

On Friday, I was riding the Go train home, and some old guy sat directly across from me reading his book. Every 10 seconds or so, he'd lower his book, stare at me for 10-15 seconds, and then go back to his book.

It was really creepy.
