If you're ever near Sindelfingen (Germany), take a look at the buses at shift changes.

More than twenty bus companies are shuttling workers to and from the factory.

And it's no big deal. Of course you curse them when you happen to be in traffic right behind several of those, but they evoke no hatred in the populace, but even some kind of pride.

But, of course, there's not much jealousy involved when it comes to Daimler. Everyone knows someone working there. And the workers there don't generally carry the stigma of being filthy rich.

Google is more elite, I guess.

But the problem is certainly not the buses or the traffic per se.
