So, I take the bus to work everyday, and this morning I got on my usual bus, but it was way loaded with people I had never seen before. Turns out that the bus driver, a cute little hispanic guy, pulled up a little early (I take the bus from a transit station, the 460 leaves every 5 minutes) and so all these people had gotten on the 6:25 instead of the 6:20.
Well, so we're sitting there letting people get on and waiting to leave, and this lady yells at the driver:
Lady:Why don't you just leave since you're the one who screwed up?!
Bus Driver: I have to leave at 6:25.
Lady: Well, you're the one who screwed up now we're going to be late!
Ok, so I interrupted at this point and said lady, unless you're willing to do his job leave him alone and stop being rude. Here's the thing, she leaves at 6:20 everyday, thats the same bus and driver everyday, when she got on the bus, her normal bus was letting people on too. She could have gotten on that bus.
The thing that really gets me is that I have a feeling (totally unfounded, I know) that if it had been the sweet white-haired white man who normally drives the 6:25 bus, she would have been fine with it. So the new guy made a mistake. How fortunate for you lady that you're perfect and don't make mistakes.
On second thought, life would pretty damn boring without any mistakes in it.
