Default The state of public transport and how they don't give a toss.
Public transport is a disgrace. Today I waited for an hour for a bus that's due every twenty minutes and then had to stand up on a packed vehicle all the way home because lots of people were on it. The driver just said its not his problem?! Pfffft. Great attitude. I'm not gonna waste my time complaining because they don't give a stuff.

But something should be done.

First of all, I would have stood up and offered you my seat..

Secondly, there would have been another one 5 mins later with less people on "always remeber that if your bus is ridiculously late" everyones been waiting the same as you so they all pile on the first one to come along, but the 2nd one will always be just behind the late one...third kne wont be long either.

An old trick I found out on the grays to chelmsford 100.

Most of them are failed security guards.

I never use public transport much anymore (and tbh I’m kinda glad) but when I do I use the TFL live arrivals so I know when to leave to catch the bus. Mind you there’s even been times when that’s been wrong as well
