‘They kept doing it and eventually it all boiled over.’ Bus Driver Warns To Not Block The Bus Stop, But They Ignore The Rules. So 40 People Are Left Standing In The Rain.

There’s nothing quite like reading a story from Reddit’s “Malicious Compliance” page that really leaves you feeling satisfied.

Because some people just need to learn the hard way!

Check out this story from a bus driver who was only following the rules…but it ended up with some very angry folks.

Get started now!

“Up until fairly recently, I worked as a camp bus driver in a major industrial area.

What my duties where, was to pick people up from the camp (where they lived for a certain amount of time, I was two weeks in, one week out) and take them into the plant and drop them off at a variety of dropoff areas (depending on what their job was), then pick up anyone that was returning to the camp for their rest period.

Now, there where certain designated areas for the buses to pick up and dropoff (you know, a bus stop) and only buses where supposed to be parked in those areas. The issue was that people would keep parking their work pickup in the bus areas and block us off.

We kept asking them to not do that, they kept doing it and eventually it all boiled over when a higher-up in the company started giving us **** over picking people up out of the designated areas (because people kept blocking the areas with pickups), we explained why we did it and the higher-up promised to do something about it, but never did.

The second time that higher-up gave us **** over picking people up out of our designated areas, my manager told us (the bus drivers) that the next time this happened that we should let him know via radio and then just leave. So that’s what I did.

Now, we didn’t just spring this on our passengers. We made sure that every single one of them knew, that the next time it was blocked off, that the bus would just continue on it’s way and leave them behind. When I spread the news to my passengers I heard a lot of laughter and could tell that they didn’t believe me.

However, the next day, it happened again. There where pickups in our areas once again and like the good little minion I was, I did as I was directed, got on the radio to my manager, let him know what was happening, and left.

I understand that there was a number of interesting phone calls afterwards.

But we never had a problem with pickups in our areas afterwards.”

One Reddit user made an excellent point.

Another individual talked about how to make things problems for other people.
