So just remind your partner: righty tighty, lefty loosey.

Good for her, I don't blame her a bit. I think people would be surprised at the amount of abuse just driving a bus can incur. You've got customer service, safety, security and driver all rolled into one while multi-tasking this big ass bus down the street. Any driver will tell you a simple "thank you" goes a long way toward brightening their day.

We get this sometimes too. It's amazing how "the driver closed the door in my face and left early" really means "I was 80 feet behind the bus and taking my sweet time to get there so I missed the bus which departed exactly on time".

Nope, doesn't stop then.

Wow. This is part of my job as well for a nice sized college transit system. I imagine with the city you see even crazier things than I do. Accidents are fascinating to me and I usually watch the entire incident until the scene is clear just to see how everything plays out and everyone involved interacts. On the other hand, I could do without jumping through FERPA hoops every time the police want video.

Just out of curiosity, how do you retain video saved from the incidents? How long do you keep it? I think I've got around a couple hundred GB of audio/video, but I'm not at work and can't look at the moment.
