True Story

Me & Richard are on the bus this morning, headed to the bus hub by the Salem Mall. As the bus starts to pull into the hub parking lot, a female RTA employee starts running towards our bus, grinning and screaming and waving, and our driver, recognizing her but unsure of what's going on, starts slowing down but keeps going forward. As the woman gets closer, it becomes apparent that A) she isn't going to stop, and B) she's headed right for the front of the bus, so at this point our driver starts putting on the full brake. Just at the bus lurches (finally) to a complete stop, the woman reaches the very front/side corner of the bus (on the driver's side), slaps the side window (with her hand) where the bus driver is sitting, and then collapses onto the ground.

Everyone on the entire bus sits there in stunned silence for a moment, looking at each other trying to figure out what just happened. Did we hit her? I don't think we hit her but the bus did kind of lurch right there at the end and, did we hit her?!

And then the bus driver says, "You are NOT getting worker's comp for that!" Relieved laughter fills the bus as the woman, laughing herself, gets up and saunters off.

Do things like this happen regularly around anyone else?
