Kerry the Blue line Max driver

It's been a bad commuting week for Tiffanys. The Steel bridge hasn't been closing and their are fare inspectors at King's Hill that keep making me late. And if this was England, I'd still be filled with righteous commuter rage.

But I'm not.

See, no matter how crappy public transport can get, there are a few people who can make all the difference. One is Kerry, the Max driver that hits Goose Hollow around 8:00am. In the mornings he makes announcements about the weather and tells everyone to have a great day. When I cross at King's Hill or PGE Park, he waves and wishes me a good day. And when I approach the platform at the Fair Complex, he mouths 'Good morning.'

And suddenly all the frustration and anger about late buses and ticket inspections just vanishes. What a difference a nice guy makes!
