I was left stranded at 4am at a gas station in a small town in Texas, even after talking to the bus driver about not getting left behind.

They’re employees handle a lot of stressful duty’s and clients. I’m very certain their lives are not made easy by this job, but 2 out of the five drivers were kind and helpful. The rest were very disrespectful not just to me and my service dog but to other customers who’s items were missing, people in the bathroom and people walking-then running to catch a leaving bus. Life is hard for everyone and they should have resources to stress reliefs
