I pull into a stop and a woman gets on the bus, digging through her purse to find her pass. She glances up at me and immediately starts backing off the bus. "Ummm. It's okay, I'll wait for the next bus" She says. "You realise that it's not going to come for about half an hour?" I ask. "Uhh, Yeah that's okay. I'd prefer to wait." she responds. I'm not too sure what her issue was. Most people that refuse to get on are males that have a problem with a female driver and usually they will tell it to my face. It's very rare (I've only had it happen once) where a female will refuse to ride with me because of my sex. It's entirely possible that I scared her off for a different reason altogether. My lip ring? The fact that I look like I'm sixteen years old? Who knows. Her loss.
Part 2:
Remember the post where the woman refused to get on my bus for some reason? Well tonight I pull into a stop and she's there. Once again she walks to the doors of my bus, looks at me and says "Umm, I think I'll just wait for the next bus". Why on earth would anyone want to wait in the cold rain for half an hour?
