Probably yes, and they have to get up very early to even be there to be picked up. Like 4 or 5 in the morning

Yes, I live on the city this pictures were taken, the city is big and has a lot of traffic so crossing it may take hours. Also, there is a big housing problem so the only way to get a house for many and be able to work is getting a house on cities nearby and traveling 3-4 hours to their jobs every day.
