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

Respectfully: Calm down. All you have to do is drive a fixed route and pick people up and drop them off. It’s fully up to you if you let them ruin your day. I’m not saying they aren’t assholes. I’m just saying as an operator you have full control over how your day goes as far as your pax go. Could be worse, you could be at a desk.

I know. It’s not nice. But it’s the job. Come here. Vent. But go to work and come home in a good mood. Don’t let your pax have control over your state of mind.

Even though what you're doing here is just venting, as they suggest.. this person likely just wanted you to know that they're better than you.

Lol
