You're a bus driver? Got any interesting stories???





the short bus has a new pilot!





lol i love riding the public buses here in vancouver, so phx shouldn't be so different eh? ps: bus drivers are an awesome bunch of people![]()
Oh geez Blade, that makes me wanna loose the keys to my car and start taking our public transit system!
Hmm, what are the rules on flirting with your bus driver?


I've lived in Phoenix for 25 years and never taken the bus





why? are gonna steal peoples t-shirts?



bus driver = commercial driver's license = drug test....
that's not a problem?

I've lived here in Phoenix for most of the last 13 years.. and I've only ridden (ridden? rode? rided? ruden? whatever) the bus ONE time 'bout ten years ago.
And I got to experience a homeless guy peeing in the back..
First time, last time..
Besides, I'm waiting for that light rail to start up! It's going to be a godsend I tell ya! *cough*

My only bus experience:
Miami WMC 06
Locked out of condo for 12 hrs by "friend"
Snuck in & up elevator @ 8am after security stopped me & I told them I was GOING to get my stuff in the room and THEN i would leave
Banged on door & 2 strangers let me in the condo
Packed my stuff, found my "friend" sleeping and condoms on floor
Thought about walking to FLL and sat on a bench to think for a few before the 30 mile"?" trek
Saw "Miami-Dade Transit System" sign and called to get info
Took bus to FLL for <$3.00 USD, seing a bunch of cracheads the entire way that smelled bad
Got to FLL 7 hrs early
"Friend" calls wondering how we're getting to FLL and I said I was already there
Got on plane after being up for over 24 hrs and flew home
we're not "friends" anymore
What a GREAT deal to get the hell away from a BAD situation!
I LOVE THE MIAMI-DADE TRANSIT SYSTEM!!!!!




... Why do Twisted Metal and Grand Theft Auto come to mind?


omg, everyday I have to navigate through that mess....I agree, it had better be amazing!


I love riding the bus! Especially if a homeless guy is peeing in the back. That gives me some great stories to tell at social functions.
I've been riding the bus here lately (sometimes I just get bored of driving and sitting in traffic), and I've seen some cool stuff and been bored, too. Public transportation is really quite relaxing. I sometimes get too stressed out to drive in city traffic, and if I lived in a city like Phoenix, I'd likely ride at least a couple of times a week.
Good luck with the new bus driver position.![]()
Promote yourself and earn more money! This is a business that is owned by strippers for strippers. Let's make that money!


not to knock the new resident bus driver, but public transportation in Phoenix sucks, as would sitting at the bus stop when it's 110 out.
Yeah, what haz said..
Phoenix's mass transit is unlike most other city's.. not nearly as.. uhh.. glamorous. I remember in the not too distant past when the buses didn't even run on Sunday.. or past 10 or 11pm at night. That's probably when I learned my distaste for it. That and the peeing of course.
I've always wished Phoenix had a nice subway system 'er something.
Also, does it really make the bus come quicker if you take a couple steps off the curb out into the street and then leeeeeeeeean way out into traffic lookin' like a dope? I see people do it all the time. Its all I can do to keep from turning my wheel that millimeter or two to bump 'em back up on the curb.

Oh hell yeah, I've been tempted to do that a lot. It's especially funny when you passed the bus like 5 miles back and know it's still got like a half hour before it makes it to the people leaning out. I'm always tempted to yell at them but most of them probably wouldn't understand English anyway.



Hey hazmat, sorry but I think that's a pretty lame stereotype, at best out of line, and perhaps at worst, racist. Far worse than my attempt at humor about Blade's ability to pass a drug test.
Hey Blade, congrats on the new gig, and congrats on not being a druggie! We've never met, so I really had no right to suggest otherwise, even if I was joking!![]()





Can you post your route please, I need to know what part of town to avoid.



I keep getting this image of Blade at the wheels of steel all grinning and such, saying come on motherfuker you just pull out in front of me. Then again I keep seeing the words twisted metal and imagining Blade driving the bus like in the road warrior! lol
I've come a long way since I believed in anything, and I've come half way around the world.
Where you come from is gone.
Where you thought you were going to was never there,
and where you are, ain't no good unless you can get away from it.
