This is more of a bitch by proxy, as I only witnessed the event which was so out there I had to laugh. Shortly after 5pm on Friday, the woman driving the 84 pulls up to the stop I’m standing at on Barrington in front of the CIBC Building. As she stops, she leans out the window to talk to the guy through the sunroof in the car pulled up next to her about how “cool” his car is (I thought it may have been a Neon with a sport package, which is kind of funny in itself).
Then when she was done talking, she pulls away without the two guys trying to get her attention to open the door and let them on. They were pretty good sports about it and laughed about it with the rest of the people at the stop.
I’m sure they must covered “bus stops” in her training. —I’m No Bus Driver, But…

Hahaha this is typical of metro transit
Impressed by a neon? jesus.
If you drive a Geo maybe…. or a burnt out Pinto.
Or a Chevette/Acadian. I saw one around town recently. Looked like it was in pretty good shape. Those little cars were like tanks.
my brother had an orange gremlin, i doubt if there are any of those on the road
better than waiting for a hour or two, having 12 out of service buses pass you, then still waiting for your bus, that finally come over 2 hours late. and NO fucking explaination why it was so. figure that the fuck out.
She is a bus driver ……and no clue about life other than to treat hemorrhoids ….. or at least keep them at bay ….. the grapes-of-ass afflict bus divers the most.
Well, I’m sure that neon is in better shape than my busted out volvo at the moment. 3k to replace the airbags and it won’t be certified without ’em. Plus 389 for a new windshield and another 150 per seatbelt to have them unlocked and/Or replaced. So, fuck yeahs to the dude in the OPERATIONAL neon.
And really, it was the 84. Not like another one won’t be along in 30 seconds, anyway. I know, that’s not the point but it’s the fucking 84. Two thirds of metro transit’s fleet cover the 84 during rush hour.
She must have the attention span of a gnat. Gets distracted by a neon and forgets her stop.
Squirrel!!
Lol, a neon with a sunroof. Now that’s a sports car that should inspire awe in all of us. What a bitch!!
