In Love with My Disgruntled Bus Driver

As Charlie as my witness....I will never be on time for work again... if of course it means I catch the later bus and will always and forever get the same bus driver in the morning.

No, this isn't going to be another blog where I bitch about the bus. The beauty of this is I do not have to...because the bus driver was ranting and raving and said it better than I could ever have…(note that these quotes are from what I remember transpiring).

Lady getting on bus with child: Wow, the first bus was so packed I had to let it pass me.

Bus driver: Yeah, they should really have a bus on this route every ten minutes. You see, they put buses where they are really not needed because there is a politician on that route who is causing a ruckus.

Same lady about ten minutes later: Can I put five dollars on my card using that machine?

Bus Driver: I really wouldn't trust this machine. It has been replace 14 (14!!) times since it was installed. See, that is why we need to have almost 100 union electricians on the payroll.

He goes on: And the craziest thing about these machines, you cannot buy spare parts for them. Meaning, a small part of it breaks down we have to install a brand new one. Typical T thinking, buy now, think later.

Okay, so he is totally coming off like a grump, but he was absolutely hilarious. Everyone who was sitting in earshot was enthralled and laughing hysterically. It was great, I think I'm in love.
