Not quite what I had expected...

So, I'm at work. I'm blogging from work. "How does that happen when you are driving a bus," you may ask.

I will tell you. I'm not driving! Not exactly what I expected.

One problem with the bus system is the fluctuation of seasons, days, holidays, patterns, and other things. Saturdays can be very busy. Saturdays can also be very NOT busy. Today happens to be one of the NOT busy days on the Call-A-Ride routes. I am supposed to be driving CAR 2. That means I have no rides, BUT...

Another problem with the system is we are very public. The Transit Center is open, air conditioned, and the meeting point for all the buses coming and going on fixed routes. That means we can also be the focal point for gang graffiti, fights, arguments, and other "interesting" encounters. We have all kinds of people from all walks of life that get together here and I am the overseer for this morning. With everything that has been happening lately, I do not see that as a particularly boring experience.

Besides, after so much time being rather sedentary, I can use the regular walks!

If all else fails, I can finish up some of my older blogs that have just been waiting over the last few weeks for me to have the time to work on them!
