First the cool bus driver... this lady totally made my day on the way to work... UTA for reasons I truly do not understand doesn't do their shift changes at the transit centers, they do them mid route... anyway, the 217 stopped at 3500 south and Redwood which is where the shift change occurs for that route... the old driver got off the new driver got on... the first thing she said was "good afternoon, my name is (name) I'll be your bus driver for the next leg of your journey, if for whatever reason you decide you do not want to go all the way to Salt Lake Central I'll understand, just pull the cord located above your heads, once again thank you for riding UTA"
Seriously, half the people on the bus were confused the other half thought it was the funniest parody of an airline announcement ever done by a bus driver.
On the note of buses, you can tell that the energy crisis is real... UTA is now shutting off the bus engines on all non hybrid buses while they are in transit centers rather than idling (in the 2 years I've lived here I've never seen them turn off the engines... ever
oh and the tax suck... why do people attack us for the tax rate and ask us how we can charge that much... hello, do they really think that we are the people who set the tax rate... hell to date with the exception of Harry Reid no one I've ever voted for has ever made it into office, why are you bitching at me for what the politicians that I didn't vote for are doing?
GRR... on the bright side I just heard from another hotel that might be willing to hire me for a sunday through thursday night audit which means between that and my current night audit I can leave the reservation desk
