The ride from hell

Hello!


Good day to you all!


Well the ride today was an experience, perhaps not for me but for the lady that got in the bus...


I'm waiting for my bus today and for some odd reason I'm waiting near the street, usually I wait for the bus near my patio door, but today I said what the fuck. I saw the bus coming my way and I started to wave at the guy because I saw that he was looking for my address, by now most of the people at the RTL (bus company) know me so they just come here to the door, but this one seemed to be new. So he got into my parking and I thought he had seen me, nope! He came out of the parking and went back to where he came from, WTF?! I called the bus company and told them their guy was completely lost, they paged him and told him where to go. I was right, the guy was new!


Then we went on to pick up somebody else, an elderly person, after looking for her address, also, the person came into the bus (the lady could still walk) and she sat down in one of the chairs designated for such people. Everything was fine so far, but then the guys took off and there was this yell coming from the back of me "hey! Stop!", the lady almost fell off the freaking chair! She hadn't put on her seatbelt and the guy didn't check either, generally the driver of the bus has to make sure that the people that sit in those chairs buckle up before he splits. The guy didn't do this I'm pretty sure that little old lady is going to call the company and complain about him... Poor bastard!


Once I got to the CMR, like always, it was an experience. First of all they weren't any room available to me, they had overbooked them so I had to go to the garage. You heard me, the garage! No skin off my nose, I was like a kid in a candy store... This is where they built the chairs, they had a couple of them in production one more beautiful than the next! Then my mechanic asked me what I needed today, so I told him that I wanted the reverse speed to be faster as well as the second speed, I also needed this and that and some more of that. The guy obliged and now my reverse speed is really cool, the second speed? It's freaking scary, this is the one I use in the streets to go from point A to point B. plus, they ordered a whole bunch of things for my chair: air cushion, a back rest, new feet rest etc.. I have to go June 1st for a tuneup and when they get their stuff I'll have to go back.


Thus the reason my first post is late!


Take care people!
