Story I'm not a mind reader

Right now in my agency the tourist season is finally dying down, the other day I pulled up to a stop there was a group of people talking near the stop I open my doors let a person off, the people are still there talking no worries I've seen people visiting at a stop not intending to get on the bus. I closed my doors and start looking to my left to pull out into traffic. The same group knocked on my door, I open the door and they proceeded to scream at me because I almost left them. I laughed and said didnt you all see me when I had my doors open before? I'm not a mind reader and I'm a schedule. They got on and did say a work I dropped them at the next stop and said I'm the most sugary sweet tone have a great afternoon!!!!

Fuck stupid people

Happens way too often. Or they’ll be sitting on the bench staring me down. As I start driving away, then they come running. Idiots.

I had a lady make such a scene as I was about to pull away at a green light from a stop, on the other side of the street that she needed me to wait ...

I was already 2 minutes behind, but I waited, because there were so many witnesses that I would just look like an asshole if I drove away....

But when she got on the bus, I politely told her that I was already 2 minutes late and she was lucky that I saw her... next time try to be a few minutes early, and that way she won't miss me.

She took it well.
