You saw the bus coming and started running for it, waving and yelling, but it went right past the bus stop. Why? Because I don't have time in my schedule to wait for every moron who can't be at the stop in time for the bus. On some [routes], I have six minutes before I leave again. In that time I have to change the signs and transfers, clean the filth you fucking slobs leave on the bus, and, if I'm lucky, use the bathroom.

Look at the fare box! There's a sign that tells you when and how much to pay. If you don't have any money... WALK! I'll kick your sorry ass off the bus before I'll chauffeur you around town for free. And if you think telling me that you lost your transfer will get you some sympathy, think again asshole!

Don't think for a minute that you've devised some new way to get out of paying. I've heard them all and don't fall for any of them. But God forbid I say anything to somebody who isn't white, because that makes me a racist. Well FUCK YOU! I kick more whites off the bus than any other race--so there goes your racial-profiling theory.

But don't get me wrong. I'm the same driver who gets up and helps the elderly passengers off the bus with their bags--you know, the same people you wouldn't give up your seat for until I told you that the bus wasn't going anywhere until the people in need were given seats.

So get on the bus, pay your fare, and show some respect for everyone on the bus, and I'll get you to your destination.
