The Bus that Wouldn't Stop
 
It's 3:30 in the morning, and a group of us are waiting at a bus stop. A bus pulls around the corner, the only bus scheduled to stop at that stop for an hour in each direction. Several hands are out to flag it down, and the bus driver doesn't stop but keeps driving. Fortunately a red light stops him just down the street where we run down and bang on the doors till he opens them. Several other people tonight weren't so lucky. Our bus driver delibrately left several people at 2 different stops behind, and closed the doors right in the face of a girl at a third stop simply because 'he didn't have all night' for her to get on the bus when she stopped to wave goodbye to someone. I've had this driver before, and he frequently harasses the passengers he lets on the bus, and always seems to miss picking at least one person up who wants on the bus. You'd think that a bus driver would realize that people might actually want on his bus, but this guy obviously doesn't get that.

Glad you got home safely to tell the tale.........
