He already said he understood that there could've been problems down at the other end of the line.As for giving himself a time cushion, the N23 runs every half-hour. How much time is he supposed to leave? The bus he caught was supposed to arrive at the train station at 5:09PM, and his train left at 5:23PM. 14 minutes should be plenty of time to allow for a little bit of flexibility in case the bus comes late. And catching an airplane is very different from catching a train. As for what he said, I'm not saying it was right to start out by saying "Hey, I have a train to catch", but if the bus came 11 minutes late, wouldn't you be pissed? Personally, as angry as I would've gotten, I don't think there's any point in arguing with a bus driver. For all we know, since he got into an argument with him, that could've been the reason he missed the train: Either the B/O drove slow maliciously to try to make sure he missed his train, or he was driving slowly because he was arguing with him. As for missing the train, well I agree that if the job was that important, he would've just paid the onboard fare (since he said he missed the train because he didn't have a ticket). It's better to spend the extra $6 or whatever it is than to miss the pay for whatever job he missed. |
