When I was younger, I got stranded at work a couple times.
...in the sense that as a non-driving teenager in a town with crappy buses, I was completely reliant on my parents to pick me up and drop me off at work if anything went wrong with taking the bus. (Like it just not showing up/ showing up late/me missing it). At about 4 miles (~6.4 KM), the walk was erm....a bit long.
Fast forward in time a few years and I still don't drive, but I can walk to work in under 30 minutes with my current job!
