To the idiot who was trying to board the #21 Bus on Wednesday April 9th – you started mouthing off at the driver because he wouldn’t open the door for you – well no shit Sherlock maybe the VALID reason was that you were smoking and the bus driver did not want to open the door to let in your lousy second hand smoke before you decided to butt out! Then you and your idiot girlfriend had no right to start mouthing off at the driver. No one appreciated it when you said you were so good looking that he didn’t have to look at you that long before opening the door – get a grip acne face and GROW UP!!!

A supervisor had to be called in on Thursday afternoon to remove a woman who was being nasty to the driver on the #9 and it held the bus up for 15 minutes.
About a year or so ago there was a fight on a 52 — this crazy woman started punching this women who was holding her baby because she had an “SUV SIZED STROLLER!” (which she had folded up when she got onto the bus and held onto the kid)…anyway they had to call in the cops/supervisor and another 52 in. Friend of mine who was on the bus stayed as a witness and got a ride home after she gave her statement by a supervisor in one of those little supervisor tempo cars (I think they’re tempos…from like 1990? roflz).
The dude was pretty lacking in gray matter for smoking in the first place, but that whole incident gave him a 1 Up in the douchebag category. I want to find that driver and give the poor shmuck a hug.
It reminds of this one girl who was forced to throw out her new cup o’ Tim’s before getting on the #17 to Saint Mary’s about three years ago. She spent the entire half-hour mouthing off at the poor driver about how she’d sue and such… I should have unscrewed my thermos and poured its contents on her head. Arrgh.
After reading this you no longer have to ask why people prefer “single occupancy – earlier post” it’s to spare us having to share space with zit encrusted, oh so beautiful welfare trash who’s “significant other” can’t butt-out and consider other people.
Perhaps the city should run a special bus for people like this, just like the Nazis did where the exhaust fumes were fed right back into the bus – wouldn’t need a transfer then……
why do people think being angry and abusive will get them any where? i wouldnt let him on the bus!
When I was in ottawa there was a new policy being enacted that if any driver saw a passenger smoking at a bus stop they could (and should) deny them entry onto the bus.
I thought it was amusing to say the least.
ooo, mental note…
when fired, ignore all job posts for nazi busdrivers.
Thanks!
Other than that, this thread has gone all Jerry Springer….
