It was a very bad rush hour day so our bus driver decided that we will take back roads instead. Well, back roads led into more back roads and he got completely and entirely lost. 30 minutes later we were driving down a highway that was pitch black and completely traffic free heading somewhere to south Minnesota.

To this day I do not know the name of that highway as none of my ride-mates nor the driver knew, it took him 10 minutes before he had the guts to call bus central and tell them he was lost and he needed help back. Another 20 minutes and we are back on 394, so instead of him continuing track to the downtown area, they asked him to turn around on the highway and go back to Plymouth to sit and just wait. They sent someone else to drive the bus for some unknown reason.

I normally get home at 6:00 p.m. I got home at 7:45. I called and complained and they sent me a free-bus-ride card. It didn’t work with the express line I take and I ended up having to pay the extra 50c.
