Taking public transit/CTA in chicago has become unbearable.
Trains don't follow any schedules, they keep announcing on overhead speakers that next train is not coming because of covid related labor shortages.
My 15 min train ride has taken me anywhere between 15mins - 2 hrs in past 2 months. So i have to plan to be somewhere 1 hr in advance of my appointment so i don't miss it due to 'covid related labor shortages'.
I suspect most of the commenters here that come out in support of public transit everytime don't actually use public transit. They are wfhers in suburbs who like the idea of compact cities packed to the brim, where cars are banned, take public tansit or better yet bike through blistering cold with kids in tow.
