BUS NO HELP

I'm sure the TRT handicapped bus is a help to people who have no jobs or commitments, but if you are employed, the help isn't too good when you need it.

First you have to file with the company. That's OK, but it takes about 10 days or more to be approved or not. You have to wait.

If you have a job and must go to work immediately, and you're in a wheelchair, you're in trouble. Your boss may not be willing to wait and hold your job.

The sad part is you have no other way to get to work - you are at their mercy.

I think these rules should be looked into and changes should be made.
