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

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
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 getting on a bus, the driver shut the door on me while I was half way inside. Instead of apologizing to me, he criticized me for getting in the way. 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 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 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, while I was on the bus, my foot fell asleep. When we arrived at my stop, I stood up and limped to the front of the bus. As I walked down the steps, I tripped, fell, and smashed my nose into the ground. The driver just laughed and drove away. FML
Today, I temporarily got off the bus for the other students to get off, because they push and shove along their way. Then the bus driver closed the door on me and drove off. My laptop was on that bus. FML
Today, while riding the bus, the person next to me broke into a coughing fit. Fortunately, he covered his mouth. Unfortunately, he used my arm. FML
Today, on the school bus, I rapped on a window in an attempt to get my friend's attention. A guy sitting behind me took this as an opportunity to shove my face into the window, breaking my nose. FML
Today, I got on the bus. Before I could make it to a free seat, the driver hit the gas, and the sudden movement caused me to stumble and accidentally grab onto another passenger for support. She didn't appreciate this, accused me of molesting her, and got me thrown back off. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Why did he leave the door open if he didn't want anyone to enter? He should've had it closed already.

You should report the driver. =/ I have no idea how cold it is in California at the moment, but it's freezing here right now and if the bus doors were left open I'd have done the same thing rather than waiting in the cold. Even if you were in the wrong the driver has no right to hurt you.

You could report him, as people said, but it wouldn't do you any good. The rule about passengers not getting on is actually NOT an unwritten rule, with most transportation companies. Drivers are supposed to make sure that no one boards when they aren't on because they cannot guarantee that those passengers will pay. It's hard to keep count when you aren't there. That does include shutting the door when someone attempts to board. Perhaps he should have watched for your hand, but I doubt the company will do anything if you call them, because the driver followed standard procedure. Next time, wait it out.

Perhaps OP should have watched his own hand. The driver wasn't necessarily trying to hurt him.

standard procedure involves closing the door when you leave the bus. so it's the drivers fault.

He hadn't left, he was right beside it, or he wouldn't have been able to shut it. He just wasn't IN the bus. It appears that he shut to door to discourage others from trying to do the same thing OP tried to do.
