As I'm sure all of you are aware that I get yelled at quite a bit while at work. Since I don't particularly enjoy being scolded, I try to do everything in my power to avoid being the subject of people's finger pointing accusations. Right now I drive a route that essentially loops around the downtown core. One way I'm the 666 and in the other direction I'm the 665, which happens to take a slightly different route than the previous.
Starting out as a 666, I loaded up my bus and proceeded to turn left instead of going straight like the 665 does. One man comes up to the front of the bus and starts yelling "Why the hell are you turning down Main st.? You're a 665! You're supposed to go straight!" "Actually sir, I'm a 666 and the 666 turns down Main" I calmly reply. "YOU CHANGED THE SIGN!!!" he shrieks. "No, I actually don't touch the sign. The bus changes it automatically for me. I started out as a 666 and haven't changed since" I say. "I've been reading for 35 years (He was close to 70...maybe a late bloomer?) and I know what I saw! Your parents made a mistake when they decided to have sex and create YOU! Tell them I said that! You're a waste of space. You're taking up all the oxygen that should be reserved for the intelligent people of this planet!" he tells me.
I already get yelled at enough as it is. Why would I change the sign halfway through my route? I'm not some sort of masochist.
I just called my parents and informed them of this man's opinion. All my dad did was laugh hysterically. Ha! My parents don't think I'm a waste of space!!!
