My week really got off to the right start this morning. Firstly, I caught an earlier bus than usual which meant that I avoided riding two stops with the incredibly smelly man who seems to sleep in the park near our house. Catching the earlier bus also meant that I had the unbelievably nice driver who says good morning bella and have a good day to everybody, waits when he sees you running to catch the bus, and sings spiritedly along to the radio. Today his route was interrupted when a construction worker, wearing what else but a high visibility shirt, short shorts, high visibility knee socks, and steel toed boots, walked out into the road with a big stop sign to allow a construction truck to pass out of a work zone. The driver’s response?
“You stupid idiot, you silly goose, get out of the road with your lollipop [stop sign]. You’ve been working here for over six months and nothing has been done. What a waste of money, you silly goose.”
I love it. I wonder what he would have said to the group of inebriated men sitting at the back of the bus I was on yesterday, singing the wheels on the bus go round and round? Or Anonymous Officemate II who randomly shouted out, “OMG, the Usher concert is tonight!!!!!!!!” in the midst of a conference call this morning?
They’re all silly gooses, all of them. Stupid idiots.
