I never heard of a bus driver appreciation day. Is that everywhere? My bus driver would probably refuse it. He’s very quite and hardly talks to anyone. Don’t even know what he’s thinking.

Bus driver appreciation day, what a great idea!! I saw one bus driver on the route 2 express save our lives one day when a car thought they had enough time to make a turn in front of us. They were coming from the opposite direction and stopped in the intersection as there was a pedestrian in their crosswalk. Our bus would have killed the car driver had the bus driver not swerved into oncoming lane and went around the car, as their was no traffic in opposite direction. This was split second, life and death responding. Bus drivers have my respect. They put up with alot of BS from s#$%heads who have issues. For any disgruntled softie people that don’t appreciate bus drivers, you wouldnt last a day behind the wheel of a bus, so don’t f#$%ing complain.

Thanks for the head’s up on this.

All the times drivers have waited for me after I frantically ran to catch their bus (coach?). That’s worth a $10 coffee card easy, especially combined with the sincere pleasantries that Metro drivers dispense at the beginning and end of a work day.

I’m thinking nice letterpress cards and small flowers. Maybe one for Disgrunted to cheer him/her up.

Some days, I would really appreciate it if my bus had a different driver.

Would you accept food from a stranger? give ‘em a coffee card … or a gift card to Safeway or something
