Hometown doofus makes good -- story at 10...
No, I’ll tell you now.
You are reading a Weblog entry from the newest member of the PTE — the Public Transit Experts! Yes, that’s right. I have successfully made it to work by using Kansas City’s public transportation service.
It was fun. It was easy. Definitely a great experience. It almost makes me forget about yesterday. (And, I must say, it is much easier to wait for a bus when it’s not raining.)
The first bus driver, a man, was super nice. My bus fare wasn’t being accepted by the meter, but he was patient and helped me get that all squared away. And he was happy to tell me where we were going (I wasn’t taking any chances this time).
Transferring to the second bus was a piece of cake. The bus was already waiting at the stop when the first pulled up right behind it. The second bus driver, a woman, was really nice too. In fact, the people on this bus (mostly African-American women) seemed as if they had been riding public transportation together for years — they were talking and carrying on about a new WalMart… It was great. And the bus driver was even joining in on the conversation.
All in all, I had a wonderful time. Hopefully my trip home will be equally as enjoyable.
