Greyhound is a piece of work.
Getting on the bus in Georgia on one occassion, they sold more tickets than there were seats... How hard was it for them to count? The remaining people who wouldnt fit had a choice to be put on the next bus out an hour later, or greyhound would put them on the full bus and pay them 25$ to stand in the aisle until the next stop 2 hours away. So we drive off and here were 4 people crouching in the aisle for 2 hours getting thrown around. How safe is that?
On another trip the bus was late getting into the Baltimore station, and my connecting bus was already gone. Needless to say the bus driver wouldnt call ahead and ask that everyone's connecting buses wait til we get there. This was 7 PM and the next bus to my destination didnt leave til the next morning. The bus station wasnt open 24 hours so I was stuck renting the cheapest room on JULY 4, close by for a whopping 120$. If I hadn't of had that money on me, I would have had to sleep on the street. Thanks greyhound
