What the driver might have thought when he saw someone standing at night in terrible weather at a bus stop? Was he came to celebrate something at the stop? It is a common-sense, he must have stopped the bus as he was a genuine passenger. Even if he is not - it was a bus stop - the driver must stop and it is upto the person standing to decide that he should board the bus or not.

Mostly I have seen good drivers in TTC. However they are certainly a few once like this.

Don't ask me, read his last post. And if you still can't figure out, then just forget about it...:).

Anyways, I don't really want to hijack this thread. It came from a moderator, hence pointed it out.

I think the question was rhetorical. As in why would a person who is happy with his professional/personal biz worry too much about his english?

btw: he founded CD. Sometimes intelligence and foresight outweighs everything else. You(like me) , by posting on this site, are working towards his success. :p

I dont think he is doing too shabbily is he? ...rhetorical question again.

Can one right be enough to justify all the other wrongs ?
And even if we accept one right, does it mean that we shouldn't make an attempt to suggest that someone improvise ?
What's the harm ???
Do we always need to perceive criticism as negative ???

Or is it that the law of the land has taught "us" to always suck up to........whoever we can ?

.......just thinking aloud.

During my short stay in Toronto, had found the TTC drivers to be polite and courteous. Once there were only a few passengers inside and I was the only one to get down. Therefore came close to the stairs opposite the driver when the bus was nearing the stop (as per Indian requirements) . The driver politely reminded that passengers are supposed to stand behind the yellow line. This I promptly obeyed. Later realised the reason, when I was flung even from sitting position from the first seat behind the driver on a Mississauga transit (driver suddenly applied the brakes).
In the particular case we are discussing, the driver may be right as he is responsible for passengers’ safety. Regarding his making unscheduled stop to get refreshments, only his boss can decide.

The surrounding environment, living pay cheque to pay cheque, lack of job oppertunities has made me this way. Maybe you will also be like that soon.



And why TK Anthony "Saab" are you still gracing Canada with your august presence, after going through all this? I'm sure it is not for the general entertainment (read hysterical giggle factor) of CD members :D
