More BEST bloopers

Our good for nothing BEST has this ridiculous practice of changing drivers and conductors enroute during a journey. They say, shift timings and other such things. Now, is it not possible that they plan out the trips so that such "hold ups" dont occur and inconvenience passengers. After all passengers have paid and have an idea of the time it takes to reach their destinations. And then these "stoppages" disrupt plans. You see in Mumbai, people realise the value of time (unlike the BEST employees) and expect professional and disciplined service from the utilities. They dont expect shoddy service. This is not Akola or Jalna.

What actually happens is that the leaving conductor and driver take ages to leave their bus and amble (as if drunk to the gills) slowly towards the depot. The new set takes even longer to make an appearance. They would give most women, competition in terms of time to get dressed up and put on makeup. No wonder, when they do troop in, they are usually catcalls from psasengers, who enquire if the duo was asleep or something.

Rather pathetic and terrible service. Bombay doesnt deserve this. The British did good by seeting up this fine organisation and these guys have raped the company beyond repair.
