Once I was on a replacement bus service to Guildford, which was stopping at every station on the way. Come Effingham Junction or somewhere, the driver does his little turn in the car park and pulls over at the bus stop, where the only person waiting is an old woman armed with a zimmerframe and a Topshop bag (!). After waiting from an absolute maximum of twenty seconds for the woman to reach the bus doors, the disgruntled driver just lost it and put his foot down, doors still open, leaving her coughing on his dust. Worst/best bit about this story is that I'd had to wait a good half an hour for this bus in the first place, so she probably had a similar wait. Poor cow...
Better story: A friend of mine actually made a bus driver quit once. Him and his mate were getting a bus from Camden to Highgate, and I think what happened is that his pal's oyster card didn't work, so he had to pay him with a note. The bus driver made a bit of a fuss about it while counting out the change, so my mate told him to cheer up, and it must have been the straw that broke the camel's back. Driver gets up, announces that this is it, he's sick of the cunts that come on his bus and take the piss out of him every day, and walks off, just leaving it running at the bus stop. Apparently people just sat there for about ten minutes to see if a replacement was coming before neatly filling off.
