Blue line

When I lived in lake view I’d blue line to Addison and take uber from the Olive Garden... commute home would be 30 minutes instead of 90

Ya gotta take the L (Blue Line). Reliable, cheap and travel time not dependent on rush hour traffic.

Anyone take Uber to a specific blue line stop?

D1, if you're working in the Loop, it's probably easier (and quicker) to just walk to the nearest stop rather than take an Uber. You will also increase your chance of getting a seat.

I’m in lake view. No convenient blue line

The extra 15 minutes is worth not having to take the train.

Yea. Trains not worth it

Agreed. Plus it’s tough to work on the train

From Deloitte office on S Wacker I’ll take Uber to the Grand blue line station sometimes.

lol the old Olive Garden route! I do the same

...but 30 mins is still not right

Same for most airports/cities. Only BOS and DCA are good. A few others (PHL) are ~ok.
