Why Is the Bus Like This on My Commute
Waited 20 minutes again today and it just drove right past lol. Didn’t even open the doors because it was full. I ran to the next stop, and it skipped that one too.
Guess I’ll just say I was late to work.

If it's full, isn't that just how it goes? The driver didn't do it on purpose lol Running after it is more dangerous.
Is there a source for this? Under bus company regulations, shouldn't they not let people board when the bus is full? If it's for safety reasons, then I guess there's no choice.
I didn’t know that. I heard buses these days have a system that shows when they’re full—was it on? If there’d at least been an announcement, I feel like I wouldn’t have felt so wronged.
I don’t agree. During commute hours, they should reduce the dispatch intervals—it’s unreasonable to expect individuals to run. Try formally asking your company to recognize it as a valid reason for lateness; I did that and got it approved.
Well, that’s a bit much. If it’s full, shouldn’t they at least give some basic notice instead of just not opening the doors and driving past? If they just go by, the people waiting to board have no idea what’s going on.
Ugh, I really feel this… I got skipped by three buses in a row last time and ended up taking a taxi. Being late and paying cab fare is infuriating. Just show your company a screenshot of the bus tracking app or something—it’s good for your mental health lol.
