Somewhere in the middle of October, I was taking the bus to office for work as usual. But that day it was a bit unusual because as I paid my bus fare, the bus driver suddenly talked to me and informs me about tentative information that he received, which by somewhere in month of November, this route for this bus will be cancelled as they will consolidate a few routes and extend their travel journey.

I thank him after I took my ticket from the driver as usual as well as for that piece of information, as I might need to look for alternative way to get to work if this route is going to cancel.

I found a seat in the bus and sat down. Then I started to think, why is the bus driver didn’t tell anybody who were onboard before me from the same station that I took from (nobody is after me as usual I like to queue up last, will explain why next post)?

I continued to observe until I got down from the bus when it reached my workplace. The bus driver didn’t tell anybody after me about the information that he got. I don’t know the bus driver, we only met once few times in a week if I got onto his bus, I didn’t greet him, but I did thank him every time after I paid my bus fare and got my ticket from him. I thank every bus driver every time anyway.

Until one day somewhere in November, as usual I was paying my bus fare, and the same driver inform me that starting from coming Monday, this bus and route will be cancel and advice me to take alternative buses with similar routes. I asked him whether the notice or announcement is up on their website but he told me they should announce it in soon in coming days.

Strangely, and I did observe once again, the driver only inform this information to me, not to anyone before or after me in my thirty minutes bus journey to my workplace.

On the next day, the office announcement was up, indeed they are closing down a few routes, consolidate into some other routes and extending their routes.

Until now I don’t see that driver anymore, probably he got to drive another bus in different route. And I still don’t understand why he only informs me on that information and not to anyone?

Any similar incidents happen to you before?
