This is totally wild to me. There is more than 1 road connecting Kelowna and Penticton, why didn't the bus company have a contingency plan for this situation? Not to mention the massive waterway, he probably could have borrowed an inflatable raft from someone and floated down there in less time.

I definitely admire the self-sufficiency and work ethic on display here, but damn. Guy doesn't need new running shoes, he needs a support network.

Honestly that "work ethic" is at unhealthy levels, like some sort of mental dependency on needing to work o somr sort of fear of repercussions at work.
