megafus

You wont efffin' believe this..

I get off the sub yesterday at 12:20... ten solid min. to walk 20 feet over to the bus stop...and what do i see?? a mega bus driving by, which says "Philidelphia" on it. I look at my watch and see its only 12:20.. "a bus wouldnt leave 10 min early, thats perposterous!" I thought...well guess what, that bus driver didnt give two shits about his passangers and just left! A solid 7 people were waiting there at 12:28...so being the leader my father made me ;D I decided to call Megabus and see where our bus was. They told me it was running three min late, no big deal. But at 12:45 I called again, they told me "oh were having some technical difficulties itll be there around 1:05" LIARS!! I called shortly after 1:10 and they told me the driver had already departed at 12:35. LIAR!!!!! That driver screwed me and many others over that day. I called at 12:28 wondering where my bus was. WHY would I do that IF the driver left at 12:35...DUHHH! SO needless to say, I did not get to NYC that day. I was transfered and on hold with the Megabus company and costumer service for way too long that day...Some of the other unfortunates offered me and my boyfriend a ride to NYC with them, extremely nice people. But we regrettfully declined because we knew that by the time we got there we would just have to hop on the bus back, IF it didnt decide to leave early on us. GAHHH!!

DO NOT USE MEGABUS!!!

We all exchanged emails to keep eachother updated on whether we can get a refund or compensation of some sort. I am calling tomorrow and so is my boyfriend to reem them out.

Now tomorrow I have to beg my teacher to either let me do an alternate assignment or get an extension on this assignment. Even though for me to take a bus from home to NY is around 50 smackers. If she makes me go, I'll have to go over spring break; spend way too much money and miss my friends birthday...I am hoping she takes this all into consideration and doesnt make me pay that much and still go. BUT I HIGHLY doubt this. Her military approach to teaching doesnt make me feel that she'll be too sympathetic.

I LOVE NYC and the Met. It woulda been a wonderful day, but thanks to some dude who couldnt hold tight till he was supposed to, me and many others were ultimitly screwed out of a trip/ride/assignment/money/experience.

It amazes me how someone can be so careless of others.

Karma will get him.

...Its supposed to snow a foot here. Temple hasnt cancelled class since 2002. I can only hope we get enough that the campus closes. Otherwise, HELLO WET SOCKS!!- ehh not really but it is a pain in the butt walkin to class with all that slosh around...

GOOD NOTE:
spring break is right around the corner (:
