why greyhound? why?

Hey Fellas

Back in January I was hired on by Greyhound. Went to Atlanta on the bus for training. The hardest seats ive ever experienced. I think the ride was 11 hours. I would've quit then if I had plane fare back home. They actually have a terrific program to teach people how to drive. They also teach customer service but its kinda hard to teach the Gangstas how to be nice. The starting pay was 19.20. I never took a Greyhound Bus before, if I had would have never signed up.

In my short time working for them I saw some crazy shizz. One night a crazy Haitian woman boarded the bus. Throughout the trip she was hitting the gin awfully hard. Halfway she starts chanting in French and then starts blurting out The U.S Marshals are coming for ME. She did that for about an hour. A young guy closest to her reaches up to get something out of his luggage and the lady decks him with a overhand Joe Frazer punch. Then yells at the top of her lungs' Eat MY Pu$$$ I'll never forget the expression on that young guys face. The Lady must have been the Haitian ladies boxing champ. One of the scariest places ive been to is the Greyhound Bus Station in Nashville TN Wouldn't never go there at night unless I had a machine gun. Appreciated the opportunity to drive through Tennessee. Never realized how pretty that state is. More than half the state is the smokey mountain national park I believe.

 

Oh, yeah.....she's training at Swift now....she's on the US mint run.....

 

[QUOTE="semi" retired;4147290]Thanks kemosabi, I bet they run those van drivers ragged, as I'm sure they fly under the radar, as far as rules go. We have a pretty big UP yard in town, and there is always an ad looking for drivers.[/QUOTE]

They don't its actually a pretty easy job good for retired truck drivers or full time students that want to make some extra cash as it def does not pay a living wage.

 

I wont ride greyhound or greyhound/trailways either. Rode back in the 90's from Kansas City to Reno. The bus actually stopped at a methodone clinic close to the terminal and picked up a young spanish chick with oozing needle marks up and down her arms.Anyway she boarded the bus and a large women tried to fill both seats.She walked up to her and said " move over you fat b... Later she apparently crawled under the seat in frontof her and took someones pocketbook out of their purse.Couldnt prove anything because she just took a wad of cash. True story. Then a guy talking to himself with a stocking hat pulled down over his eyes for 20 hours. Never again

 

Hmmm lost it all to my ex ......got a # will give it a try ........ American women and courtm = no balls left if entering court room to a woman judge lol !!!!!!

 

I suppose there's a whole different bunch of people riding the buses today than in yesterday years.

 

Yes. True derelicts.

 

Boy howdy, wannabe, got that right. I definitely walked with a limp exiting the courtroom THAT day. Woman judge, woman asst. D.A. and ex's woman lawyer. I didn't stand a chance.

 

What do you expect them to do? Send you a 40 foot stretch limo with a wet bar and bottle service? Maybe give you a manicure and pedicure during the trip. And of course you should have someone there feeding you grapes and wine the whole time.

AINT GONNA HAPPEN.

Take the bus and be happy with it.
