Characters on my bus!
As we moved our office building to a 'village' outside the city, I have no option but to take the company bus for my commute. In the bus, I've been witnessing some strange characters, who were the inspiration for this blog entry!The 'I_know_this_city_better_than_anyone' guy: This guy brags that he knows bangalore roads better than god! Asks the poor driver to try different routes each day and makes the rest of us suffer on his adventurous expedition!
The 'I_can_gabble_all_day' lady: This one talks non-stop to someone or the other. I wonder where she gets her energy from! At the same time, she is the one more reason for me to put on my ear phones!
The 'I_don't_like_this_city_at_all' guy: I think he has come back from US recently. He keeps bickering about the traffic, bad roads, people etc from time to time. Dude, If you can't do something to fix the problems, then just shut the hell up!
The 'We_will_not_lift_our_ass_off_till_the_bus_stops' guys: These idiots are so inconsiderate to others that they won't even try getting up their seats and move towards the door till the bus comes to an absolute stand-still in their stop! One more varient of this is a guy who won't get down even if the bus stops 10m ahead of his stop! Wonder how our company managed to hire these nuts!
The 'I_will_sit_near_the_window_but_won't_open_it' lady: This lady always finds her way to a window seat, but will never open the window to let some fresh air come in. I think she's allergic to wind or something! You think she likes to watch the roads, buildings and landscapes on the way? You are wrong, she just sleeps!
The 'I_cannot_turn_off_my_laptop' guy: I bet he is a manager of some sorts. Always doing something on his company laptop. The way our driver drives, I am sure the laptop is gonna break in few days!
The 'I_carry_my_world_with_me' guy: This guy carries a back pack, a laptop bag, and a lunch bag! He needs two seats, one for him, one for his 'stuff'. I don't blame him, but, I think he should 'shrink' his world a lil bit!
Until I bump into some more new creatures, this is 'the_guy_who_make_fun_of_his_fellow_commuters' signing off! :)

No wonder BLV promptly turned up in our car-pool. Of course, the joy was short-lived as he met this I-have-opinion-on-everything guy and Movies?-What-Movies? guy.
In the climax scene, he moved his entire household close to office. In the process, he had to put up with a Let-me-tell-you-how-ur-woodwork-shud-be carpenter; but the guys from HP were simply too complex for this nice, simple person.
Recently, he told me he has never been happier. Sigh. For once, (to him) saying goodbye did not seem to hurt.
Yet I hope we can victimize the big man again.
