Oh, and people who use their phone to text and call in cinemas after the polite reminder at the beginning of the movie are real asshats. And anybody who wear a blinking bluetooth earpiece when not on the phone are douches. |

As cell phones became more popular any manners associate with their use have been lost. It used to be bad manners to use them at the table. Now it appears that people in restaurants accept this. Even using them in a public toilet now seems to be accepted. |

All he's doing is asking the people be respectful and show some manners.
I work in customer service, and every time someone comes to the counter talking on their cell, I just want to bash their ******* teeth out with it. They're too ******* stupid to even comprehend that they're being incredibly rude. Remember people, someday I might contract a terminal illness and it'll play out a little like this.Enloy :) |

robosnitz: Obviously,they're the ones who need reminded about common courtesy.
Says the guy who admitted to putting superglue in a neighbour's door locks. Maybe you should grow up a bit. |

A little long, but more power to this chauffeur. These things should be understood by 8 year olds.
This is only necessary because people have no regard for others, no self control or manners in 2012. Everyone is the center of the universe. |

Grouchy? Seemed pretty calm to me. Just a weathered driver delivering a passive aggressive message of the written rules. I think he took an appropriate approach. |

You can see from the window shot that this is the NJ Turnpike. This schedule to DC from NYC stops in Newark, NJ. It would APPEAR to me that this driver has just left Newark and is now laying down the law because there were loud passengers from NYC to Newark. I drive Greyhound myself and give a quick announcement when I start the trip. will often have passengers complain to me about other passengers (loud cellphones, headphones, smoking, having sex, etc).. So I have to make a longer, formal announcement when leaving the first stop.. Then just have the offending passenger removed after that, and they can't say they weren't warned. Usually a detailed warning is enough. Having the State Police board the bus and remove a passenger is a major inconvenience to the other passengers that have to make connections down the road. |

I'd rather listen to somebody's cell phone conversation than being lectured to for 3 minutes. Give me a break about the rules buddy, just drive the bus and cut the presentation down to about 1 minute. |

I ride the bus to & from work, rather than drive, & I have seen people doing the most remarkable bullcr*p on the bus. Apart from the sex stories (too many to relate here) I have seen a dude make a f*cking HAM SANDWICH on the bus. A woman talking on her cell phone about an abortion she had JUST had! I can go on, but I'm sure you get the picture. I wish this bus driver was my regular bus driver--it would be a much more peaceful--if boring--ride. |

"...Greyhound passengers." I have worked in a position where passengers were catered to and I do understand where he's coming from. I agree with what he says. Still, he should also remember that the very people he is talking to are also, "...Greyhound passengers". If these are all corporation rules, that's all he has to say. If they're personal peeves, then he needs to get support from his supervisor. |

If you don't want to hear my typical conversational volume half of a phone conversation then quit eavesdropping. Plain and simple. You can't complain about the conversation one seat over. And just because you can only hear one side of mine, even though you want to nose in on the whole thing and it just gets your panties in a wad that you can't, get the F over it you creepy busy body. Worry about your own life. Go find some busy intersection down town and just walk around listening and panty wadding or whatever floats your goat but don't start with me. Go listen to the subway smellies talk to themselves and try to figure out the conversation, because that's all you have to do on this earth. Be retarded and get...wait...this was greyhound? Who cares what happens on that stinky stage coach? |

We use to provide Greyhound service from the hotel where I work. I can see where this is totally necessary judging from the riders I met there. Talk about the ignorant unwashed masses. It's sad that so many people live without any kind of dignity whatsoever. |
