Today, I was walking towards the bus. The bus was scheduled to leave at 3:20, and it was 3:19 so I decided to run for it. As the doors were closing, I managed to just slip my hand into the door, so it didn't fully close. The bus driver saw this, looked at my face, and then drove away. FML

Today, I was running late and rushing to a waiting bus. I made it to the doors just as they closed. I knocked desperately, hoping the driver would let me in. He hovered his hand over the button for a few seconds, then flipped me off, and drove away laughing. FML

Cruel driver

Today, I was late for class and I had to run to catch my bus, which only stops near our house twice a day. I made it to the doors just as they closed, and the bus drove away… with my sweaty reflection staring back at me in the moving bus door window. FML

Today, I was saying goodbye to my boyfriend before I got on my bus. As I turned to get on, the door closed on my face. I knocked on the door. The driver looked at me, and while still staring at me, drove off. FML

Today, I was running to the bus stop to catch the bus. The bus driver smiled, waved, and drove away without letting me get on. FML

Today, I was on a very crowded bus, standing near the back door. People had to get off at the stop, and being near the door, I had to step off the bus, allowing the people to exit. I was about to enter back into the bus, the door closed and the bus driver took off, leaving me stranded. FML

Today, I almost missed the bus. I grabbed my backpack and ran out the door. It wasn't until after we got to school that I realized I was still in my slippers. FML

Today, ignoring the unspoken rule of not entering the bus when the driver's not inside, I went in while he was taking a break. As I stepped inside, he reached in the window and pressed the "close-door" button. It closed on my hand. Everyone at the bus stop laughed as I yelped in pain. FML

Flustered

Today, as I was about to get onto the bus, my bus pass fell out of my hands. Being in a rush, I barely picked it up from the street not having a good grasp of it, just to have it fall again as I was about to swipe it. It felt like the whole bus was staring at me. FML

Today, I had to catch a shuttle bus. I awoke to the sound of a car horn. I ran out in my boxers and saw a bus take off down the road. I chased it, thinking I had missed my bus. I realized I hadn't only when I saw frightened kids in the back of the bus. FML

Today, I was late for work so I ran to catch the bus. I made it. Unfortunately, the bus was actually out of service, and I just sprinted to a parked vehicle for no reason. FML

Wow that sucks. Little word of advice... To be early is to be on time To be on time is to be late Just an age old adage my parents taught me.

I can see this happening. Out of the handful of bus drivers I've met, they all hate one thing more then any other: People that risk their neck and jump through hoops to get on a bus.

I would too, I don't like pushy people. If I'm trying to sign out to use the RR or go home and someone slambs their shit on the counter, I leave. Hey, they have time to browse, they have time to wait - and while they're waiting they can learn some things called a) being on time and b) being patient.

If you got injured, you should sue! There's no excuse for him to drive away with you still attached to the bus.

#18-anonymous is what the computer automatically puts in if the submitter doesn't type in name, it's not the same guy over and over again, they all just didn't put their name in.

I always used to stop for people who ran for the bus. Then again, I wasn't doing nothing but bus driving to barely pay the bills. They are on a tight schedule, the economy sucks, and they're doing nothing but driving around in circles all day, of course they're going to be cranky. And while they shouldn't pull over and grab a sandwich, sometimes there's not enough break time scheduled in for them to eat anything all day otherwise. Would you rather wait 3-5 min while they get something to eat, or wait 3-5 hours after the driver crashes the bus from low blood sugar? Anyway, be early next time. Good life skill to learn. Sucks though.

#18 and 22: anonymous or no name is just what this site puts for you if you don't wanna put it your own name. It's not ONE person.

#24 - I think #18 was being sarcastic... Also, I have this one bus driver who loves to laugh openly at people through the speaker outside the bus (that I didn't know existed until this guy used it). He will literally yell "HA. You missed the bus, LOSER." He's definitely done it to old people, too.
