The woman didn’t know when to shut up. Just leave him alone. I’m sure it is a stressful job driving a bus on narrow streets with idiot drivers all around and druggies and ne’er-do-wells, as he said. She doesn’t know his situation, could be he has a family member in the hospital...shut up, lady!
I think the worst thing in this Brave New World we have going is how some complete strangers you meet in day-to-day life suddenly latch onto you and relay details of their personal lives and you have to listen politely. It kind of amazes me just in my own business life. I think these are the same kind of people who have long, loud cellphone conversations in the booth next to you while you’re just innocently trying to eat your lunch.
