Had to get an airport Bus this morning. I spot a likely bus (number 101) with the driver stood outside having a fag.
I ask him "Excuse me, Are you out of service or just having a quick break"
him "I'm out of service"
"Can you tell me, where can I get the bus?"
him "Bus stops at the end up there"
"Which buses can I get"
him "number 101 and 102"
I Walk to the stop wait a minute and a bus pulls up, it's the driver I've just been talking to!
He could have just said "I'll be picking up in a minute from the stop up there"
No he'd rather expend energy being a nob. Welcome to rude and unhelpful Britain 2009!
