Now I remember why I wanted to get back to blogging. So that I can vent about Greyhound. I take them all the time when I travel between DC and NYC. It’s cheap, semi-comfortable, and gets me where I need to be in one piece. On the flipside, they typically run late, overbook themselves, and have one of the worst customer services I have ever seen.

On tonight’s adventure, our bus driver seems to have left a Hispanic lady at the rest area we left about 20 mins ago. A man came running to the front clamoring that this lady that was back there isn’t there anymore.

The bus driver responds, “why didn’t you tell me when I asked is everyone back?”

The man responds, “I was sleeping and just realized it now she wasn’t there.”

Bus driver, “do you know her?”

Man, “no.”

Bus driver, “the rest area will call greyhound and another bus will pick her up.”

Now, I’ll let you decide. Should the bus driver keep a count of the number of passengers and do a head count before he left or is it the lady’s fault for not coming back on time.

Either way, the moral of the story is to not get off the bus because they will leave you.
