This is a stain on our industry, and I hope the drivers continue to unionize. The buses are the only reason that the big South Bay tech companies can attract significant quantities of engineers from SF and the East Bay. I think you'd see a significant exodus if SF-based employees suddenly had to deal with 101 and 280 on a daily basis.

According to this highly flawed study, 50% of people would still drive in the buses didn't run. http://blog.sfgate.com/techchron/2014/01/21/study-40-percent-of-s-f-shuttle-riders-would-move-without-chartered-bus-service/ http://blog.sfgate.com/techchron/2014/01/21/study-40-percent... Also, SF has a Google office. I'm not quite sure where you're coming up with these unfounded conjectures from.
