Today, I was walking on my crutches towards the bus through the rain. The bus driver looked into my eyes, punching the button to close the doors while I was still a few meters away. As he drove off, he kept his eyes on me, while I had to wait for another 15 minutes for the next bus in the rain. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
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 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
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 had to take bus to work, because yesterday my car was hit by a bus. While standing there, I noticed the driver kept looking back at me every now and then. As I went to get off, he looks at me again and says: "Sorry..." FML
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 stood for half an hour in the rain waiting for my bus. As I started to go inside, my bus turned around the corner and splashed water all over me. The bus driver wouldn't let me on the bus because I was soaking wet and I would "mess up the seats". FML
Today, I woke up late and rushed to catch the bus. I sprinted heroically, slipped on wet pavement, and skidded directly into a puddle deep enough to baptize me. The driver waited just long enough to make eye contact before closing the doors and leaving. FML
Today, I waited over 30 minutes in freezing cold weather for my bus. When it finally arrived, I went to get on board, but slipped and fell on the icy ground. The driver waited a whole 2 seconds before snorting, "Ain't nobody got time for this shit", closing the doors, and driving off. FML
Today, my car is being repaired, so I had to catch a bus to work. When the bus came, the driver pulled toward the curb and gunned it through a large puddle of water, then pulled away and continued down the road, leaving me soaking wet. FML
Today, I waited over an hour for my bus. As I finally saw it approaching, I reached into my purse to grab my ticket. The lady next to me then gave the driver a hand signal to keep driving. FML

I'd make a complaint to the bus company, that driver was just being a dick.

Let the company know because that's bullshit.

i have no idea if this would have worked where this guy lives but when i was very young a similar thing happened to my mom though without the rain. her solution was to call a cab and hand the bill to the bus company.

yeah, in Germany there's ways to find out who that driver was. The company will have a "nice" talk with him.

He's a complete asshole OP, I'm sorry.

Ugh, why do people act like that? Sorry OP, I hope he gets his karma three fold

Shit move by the driver but maybe this problem could have been avoided if you left 5mins earlier as you were on crutches.
clairelaliberte 16
That wouldn’t have helped, as it still would take OP the same amount of time to walk to the bus.
Cads1 24
True, but he would have arrived at the bus stop 5 minutes earlier than he did and not missed the bus. Versus leaving home when he did and missed the bus?

OP doesn't say this is the morning, they could have just left work "Sorry boss can I leave early in case the bus driver's an asshole?" isn't really gonna cut it.
derangedplanet 23
Right as you may be, if that was the case they could have a little at work then left and caught the next bus. the buses are 15 mins apart. not like an hour. I think the real problem here was being left out in the rain. which is probably why they didn't leave early.

#6 Also why should OP have to rearrange his schedule because that bus driver decided to be an asshole.
Cads1 24
At the risk of being banned for a week again, I offer a different view. Why should the bus driver force everyone else on the bus to change their schedules for one person who can't sort out their own life?

What are you talking about #31? OP didn't miss the bus, the bus driver was an ass, stared at him while he was approaching the bus, closed the door, and continued to stare at him as he drove away. Now it would be different if he was half a block away and saw the boss leaving and the driver stared while he drove by. And I feel the other people on the boss could afford to wait maybe two minutes for OP to get on.

It'd be a different story if the guy was pretty far away and could see the bus pull away, but here, he was only a few meters from it-that'd be changing other peoples' schedules by about ten seconds. Not a big deal, in my opinion.

#31, I'm actually curious. why did you get banned?

I've had drivers leave early and leave me and 2 Young kids stranded in torrential downpours. (Bus was virtually empty so space wasn't a problem). He even watched me run up the road and pulled away as I got to the door. Sometimes drivers are assholes,

I hope you saw the bus number so you can report this. Either way fyl indeed.
LeashaJoy5595 28
Why would someone do that?! Did you put spiders in his shirt in the past or something? Definitely report that, that situation is total crap!

Well, that's mean. Let them be dickified assholes. Complaining will do nothing, or nothing worth the energy.
anonymous198913 26
Complaining to the company could get the driver a warning, which could stop him from doing that to other people in the future.
