Kidplayer_666I grew up in a smallish town where the bus was ALWAYS 2-3 minutes late.
Unless you were counting on it, in which case it would miraculously be on time for the first time in months if not years 😄
Europe. Busses in my town have a clause that they arrive within +/-2 minutes of schedule.
However, to correct for this bestial treatment of driver rights to piss on people, sometimes the bus doesn’t show at all.
randintI don’t get it. Is this a play on whether they report to you or not?
I might have said “two or more to speak with our complaint department.”

Them: look what they need to mimic a fraction of our power!
I’m in the UK, and First basically hold the monopoly in my city. There are so few buses that they often skip stops at rush hour because they’re already full, or because they’ve decided in the moment that your stop doesn’t matter.
Nothing wakes you up during your commute like listening to a woman get fired over the phone because she’s going to be late for work, despite still being 60 mins early for what should be a 20 min journey.

I guarantee this is 100% necessary and also 100% ineffective.
I grew up watching PBS; Sesame Street, Mr Rogers, The Electric Company, 321 Contact, that weird math show with the math cops… all the classroom ASSET programming, and so on.
I lived in the back-country so I assumed that everyone was into learning and being smart and understanding how everything works. I thought “Wow the future will be grand if so many people my age grew up watching the same things and wanting to learn and read and think!”
Holy shit, the last several decades have been a massive disappointment. Like, crippling depression disappointment.
Yeah, I feel you. I’m in the same boat.
Hey, you remember that PBS math show—can’t remember the name—where a group of kids go into cyberspace and have to do math shit to defeat this villain dude? Best fucking shit ever. Lol.

I got passed by a bus multiple times, called and complained but they said he probably didn’t see me,
I waved a torch and stepped into the road to force him to stop, he then let me on but proceeded to yell at me that i shouldn’t take the bus because he didn’t want to stop at my stop, despite it being on his schedule
So yeah i guess not being at the stop leads to you missing the bus, but being at the stop doesn’t necessarily help

I’m so glad I don’t ride the bus anymore.
