Getting to interviews without a car in Austin after 14 years as a security officer

The bus takes almost an hour to reach the places hiring as a security officer. I have read a lot of threads here and could not find my exact situation. Some employers are off the main lines. Are there discounted passes?

Our transit agency has a reduced-fare pass for people with low income. The application took a week.

Keep everything in writing and save the confirmation numbers. It saved me later.
