Driver With a Sweet Tooth

€Most bus drivers are courteous and prompt, sometimes even ahead of schedule. This morning, however, the driver was not. We had walked briskly to make the connection for the bus to my son's summer camp. Upon arriving, there was a line of people waiting to board because the driver was not there. Sometimes, drivers will run to the restroom or something between routes, but are usually back in enough time to allow passengers to board and stay on schedule. Well, as the scheduled departure time came and went, we all started to wonder what could be keeping our driver. We were all shocked and more than a little perturbed to see him strolling up to the bus with food and drink from the Dunkin Doughnuts upstairs! He is putting all of us behind schedule for a sweet treat?! One passenger remarked that he at least could have brought enough for all of us! As I said, this is the exception, not the rule. But it was a funny story I thought you might enjoy.
