Do they take regular money or do they make you use credit card? I'm on a fixed income and only deal in cash.
What's really fun is when I'm at the stop (and had been for the past hour) and watch the bus go by without so much as slowing down. Then I have to call my job and explain that the bus skipped me.
Timing Time
(TIL Lemmy doesn't support gifs in comments.)

It wouldn't allow me to upload the gif.
You don't need to upload it, just do 
Holy Cow! I was going to say "failure to be at the bus stop 10 minutes before the scheduled time will result..." But 1 hour and a fly by? Infuriating.
What really got my panties in a bunch was when the next bus after that flew by without stopping (an hour after the previous bus).
I'm so glad I don't ride the bus anymore.
A hard thing I try to get my kids to understand. The bus time is at [what:ever]. That’s when the bus leaves. Not when you roll up to the stop. Not when you step out the door. That’s butt-in-seat-leaving-time. If you’re walking up to the stop and the bus is pulling away at bus:time - too bad, so sad. That applies to many things that require you to be on time for. 5 minutes early is on time. On time is too late. Astonishing what a difficult concept that is to get across.
As a parent with a toddler who seems to be light-years away from understanding this concept, when do you think that understanding starts to kick in? Like, what can I expect at age 5 or 7?
You gotta start doing it with a bunch of smaller less important things. We started with things like bed time 7pm was lights out not the start or getting ready. We started around age 3 or 4 and after probably 6 months it really sunk in. When planning to leave the house we would give a 45m warning and since day 1 we never had issues. With that said though kids grasp things differently. Some kids thrive on schedules and routines..
26 here. When it does finally happen I'll let you know. I just hated seeing all the time wasted by my parents as they arrived early so I vowed to never be like them.
I think for some it never takes hold. Ours are in the early teens and it’s barely starting to register.
I got passed by a bus multiple times, called and complained but they said he probably didn't see me,
I waved a torch and stepped into the road to force him to stop, he then let me on but proceeded to yell at me that i shouldn't take the bus because he didn't want to stop at my stop, despite it being on his schedule
So yeah i guess not being at the stop leads to you missing the bus, but being at the stop doesn't necessarily help
I saw some people here do something similar to get the bus to stop. They got on, the bus driver chewed them out, then told them to get off the bus and wait for the next one or they'd call the cops.
What are the cops going to do ? Shoot all the passengers ?
Taze the person that got on the bus, shoot their dog, and charge them with resisting arrest probably.
Just wave with a brick in your hand the next time
that driver sounds like an asshole
I work in retail.
I guarantee this is 100% necessary and also 100% ineffective.
I grew up watching PBS; Sesame Street, Mr Rogers, The Electric Company, 321 Contact, that weird math show with the math cops... all the classroom ASSET programming, and so on.
I lived in the back-country so I assumed that everyone was into learning and being smart and understanding how everything works. I thought "Wow the future will be grand if so many people my age grew up watching the same things and wanting to learn and read and think!"
Holy shit, the last several decades have been a massive disappointment. Like, crippling depression disappointment.
I was home taught in the UK. Have a real love for learning that's kick-started me into a career in computing that I've kept going for over two decades. Can't stop, won't stop reading, learning and improving. The number of colleagues I've had who just want a TL;DR on a new tech, software, plugin or system is too many. It's our job to understand it, so we can build something so that others don't have to. If you don't want to understand, you're in the wrong job role.
Yeah, I feel you. I'm in the same boat.
Hey, you remember that PBS math show—can't remember the name—where a group of kids go into cyberspace and have to do math shit to defeat this villain dude? Best fucking shit ever. Lol.
Edit: Figured it out! It's Cyberchase! Like I said: best. shit. ever.
Was it one of the segments in Square One Television?
I don't think Square One was what the user above was referencing, but it's certainly what I was thinking of! I loved that show, I grew up in isolation basically so I had no idea it was considered weird to love math and had an affinity for math, but Square One and other PBS shows were the closest thing I had to any kind of formal education.
I was thinking of Cyberchase. Haha.
Mathnet "To cogitate and to solve"
Nope. I was thinking of Cyberchase. Lol.
