Go Around by Commuter Line

Last Friday I have been challenged by https://englishfriday.wordpress.com/ to write about https://englishfriday.wordpress.com/2015/03/24/ef12-weekly-challenge-your-means-of-transport/. Yeah, on my daily basis, I go to work by Commuter Line (local train around Jabodetabek Area). 

Being a commuter for almost fifteen years encourage me to describe the saddest and the happiest moment to be a loyal passenger. For the saddest moment actually I have been written many experiences of mine on my other social media in Bahasa. Here the link https://www.facebook.com/notes/nazila-ibu-morteza/pegangan-donk-mbak/10152732672724582

I have chosen a commuter line as a daily transportation because it is much affordable and faster to avoid the morning rush and traffic jam in Jakarta. Commuter line is still the best choice to get office earlier, but sometimes it could be bad when its machine or its electrical signal is broken down or some trains are taking in line to get in to the Manggarai Station. It is one of the biggest station in Jabodetabek as a place to transit to other destination such as Tanah Abang, Jatinegara or Bekasi. 

As I said before, you are feeling happy as a commuter if the Commuter Line (CL) is working smoothly, you sit conveniently and arrive at your destination on time without any kind of burden in it. 

You are feeling so bad when you stand up without any space for your feet, you have got a hefty shove and nearly fell and as the result you can not take a breath because of your body almost stuck on the door. The worst is you kiss the door because the train has been over loaded. In this situation, you have no any good choice. You have to be patient, sincere and feel grateful that you can get office earlier without any traffic jam meanwhile other people who drive by his/her own car are still struggling on their way.

So, when you want to try go around by commuter line around Jabodetabek conveniently, I offer you some tips to go :

1. If you plan to go in the morning, make sure you have already have  your breakfast at home.
2. Monday to Friday morning, the rush hour of the train always happen from Bogor to Jakarta, so if you want to have your leisure time, just against the current rush by visiting Bogor. I bet you get a convenient seat because the passenger are rare to Bogor at that time.
3. Those who are pregnant, disability or person with his/her kid, please wait until the rush hour of the CL passed by. You may go up to 9 am because mostly workers are already at their office.
