[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]If you can take a bus to pick up your gov't check at the DHS office, and take the bus again to hang out in front of the Verizon center, then you can take that bus to a Harris Teeter a couple of times a week. There is no magical mystery bus that goes to all three places. Have you ever ridden Metrobus? What you describe is a 3 hour odyssey. And there is only one Harris Teeter in the District. Get out of your Audi and into reality.[/quote] Don't you have homework or something to do? Anyway, here I'll break it down: Monday: take 1 bus to pick up check at DHS office. Friend drives you home after you call her on pre-paid cell phone. Tues: take 1 bus + metro to Penn Quarter area. walk around with your friend and your strollers and 2 kids. take 1 bus + Metro back home. Weds: take 1 or 2 buses to Safeway. Or walk and then catch 1 bus to Safeway. Use little wire cart to push groceries onto bus. You can afford little wire cart because you can afford strange tittie shirt from H and M last week, and cart retails for the same amount ($22). Does not take 3 hours. Thurs: take 1 bus to DHS office to apply for work. take 1 bus home. Friday: etc etc etc. I actually know personally several people in the District who live like this. I know you won't believe me, but I don't care. It can be done. Or you can take that same bus to Penn Quarter and get $15 worth of McDonald's for you and your kid. But don't claim there's a magical segment of the population that can only take buses to TJ Maxx and H&M but cannot take buses to Giant or Safeway.[/quote] Do you know several single moms who do this?[/quote]
