This is my first aibu, so please be gentle!

So, I was off into town with dd. She's 21 months. I gave my money to the bus driver and asked for a return. Unfortunately dd had put a 20p coin out of her ELC till into my pocket.

The driver gave it back to me to me and I apoligised, very embarassed. I then got my purse out to give him the correct change, still very red faced.

He then told me to get off the bus as I was trying to underpay and could be liable for a fine!

Ffs, I was so embarassed I could have cried! I am so temted to try and put in a complaint abouy him but I don't know if that would be going too far!

There's was a terrifying part of my life when I had to have a real, grown-up job as a strategic transport planner in order that me and dcs could eat and put a roof over our heads. mortgage. From my experience, I can honestly say that if given a choice of lion taming or dealing with bus drivers, the lions would have it hands down. Not least because they wouldn't be so relentlessly fucking grumpy and so delighted with it.

Still always worth complaining to the bus company though. Go to the management though.
