Logic doesn't really enter my mind before 7am 
.
But yes, that makes much more sense. I typically try to err on the side of expecting things to work as advertised, then give it a few times of not doing as such before mentioning it. That's on me for having a false sense of optimism that things will work as they should.
The roadblocks to getting there on time can compound pretty quickly: red lights, additional stops, more passengers, waiting for printed transfers or digging out cash payments, weather, driver speed, the lack of direct passenger access from the Weber/Victoria intersection to the platform, the rear door not being responsive to waving when trying to get out, and a very tight schedule to begin with.
Of those, the one thing that is easiest to control is the driver attempting to maintain the posted schedule. So maybe I'll make mention of my intent the next time I board and see if that makes a difference.
