I almost took the wrong bus on my way to work today. I hopped on without even looking at the number. Then I noticed the guy that usually yells, “Sunway – Sunway – Sunway” was yelling something else. As the bus started to merge with traffic I thought, that’s funny he must think this bus isn’t going to Sunway.
Immediately I jumped out onto the sidewalk and as the ticket collector looked at me funny from the door I yelled back to him over the noisy traffic – “I was on the wrong bus!”
So in conclusion, having someone yell where the bus is going and keeping the doors open for those that would like to get on (or off) while the bus is in motion is very handy. Who knows where I would have ended up or how long it would have taken me to notice my mistake.
