Besides giving feedback and asking for improvement, what we could do now is to ask ourselves what we can do in the meantime to improve the situation in our own personal life.
One of my friend decided to wake up much earlier and take the train.
Also the gap can be used to exercise and have breakfast.
Of course, bedtime needs to be adjusted as well.
Many people I know decided to cycle or ride a motorbike as it is seldom caught in a jam
and is more affordable.(rainy days is a problem though)
The company I work for decided to adjust working hours, while we are slightly
out of sync with rest of Singapore, we pretty much still get all the work done.
So, while the public transport tries to improve itself, it does not help to be unhappy and grumble about it.
Take active steps to adapt to the situation and make it better for you.
I concur, but we are the minority here. Any more buddies in this group?
