    I’m not a fan of the 347, got on one from Denton to Ashton yesterday, scanned my weekly ticket, took my seat and then the driver said the ticket was fake and “I ain’t going anywhere until you pay for your ticket!” when clearly it was real (the bee moves left and right when scanning an online ticket if it’s real). Never getting a 347 again!

    @LJ07EBP Місяць тому

    Yo I am so sorry that driver treated u like that. See not every bus driver is nice but there is a misconception in the bus community that they all are. This is unacceptable. You shouldn't of had to go through that. But don't worry stuff like this happen to make you more aware and stronger. It can't destroy you. You got a lot of potential, and I see it in you. And what a f*cking mad man you stumbled apon that threatened u. You honestly did not deserve that at ALL. That guy is seriously messed up and theres a lot of males like that out here. I understand why you would need a big breath after all that, that is honestly stressing... But dont worry bro like I said before these tough situations are here to make you stronger. You shouldn't always run from them. You aint always gonna die in every bad situation remember that, I know its really hard but you have done well.
