Let me tell you a story of a passenger and a bus conductor.

The passenger went to the bus terminal. He was one of the first passengers to get on. The bus moved on along its intended route. He sat somewhere in the middle of the bus, his preferred seat.

As the bus stopped on the stops to load and unload passengers, the conductor promptly gave out tickets and collected the fares from each person, all except the first passenger. The conductor might be giving me a free ride, he thought. He quietly sat down, probably waiting for the conductor to give him his ticket, looking out the window. As more passengers rode and the conductor still continued his job, the first passenger didn't feel bothered at all.

And then, the ticket inspector arrived, checking tickets. When he asked for the first passenger's ticket, the latter said he wasn't given one. The inspector then scolded the conductor for failing to do his job. So the conductor gave the passenger the ticket... finally.

Before reaching the last stop, the conductor tapped the passenger's shoulder. "Hey, wanna go outside?" he asked. The passenger was bewildered as he didn't know what he meant. The conductor insisted that they go outside. He then grabbed the passenger by the collar and and looked at him angrily. The passenger realized that the conductor wanted to beat the shit out of him. Luckily for the passenger, the inspector held him back, preventing him from doing anything stupid. The conductor's fists were flailing around wildly.

As the passenger was about to get off, the driver explained that the conductor just lost his job right then and there. "Serves him right," the passenger muttered to himself.


It's human nature to protect one's pride and place the blame on others. But human nature usually defies human morals. A sad twist in life as it may seem.


Oh by the way, before anyone asks, the passenger was me.
