HOW EPICALLY DID GREYHOUND FAIL?
The route: Evansville, IN -> Madisonville, KY -> Clarksville, TN -> Nashville, TN -> Louisville, KY -> Cincinnati, OH -> Dayton.
Well. I am surprised to say that everything was quite fine and dandy until I got to Cincinnati, which is actually quite amazing, considering who we're talking about here.
So we roll into the Cincy station at approximately 6:25 a.m., supposed to get there at 6:05. I don't mind that so much since this is a layover stop. We're supposed to roll out again at 7:00, ride for an hour and get to Dayton at 8:00. Okay.
So 7:00 comes. And goes.
8:00 comes. And goes.
...Right.
So finally, at about 8:10, management comes on the PA and says the next driver is "late coming out from the hotel".
O rly?
So at -8:20-, we are finally boarding. And are promptly forced to wait another 15 minutes while the driver does whatever the hell he was up to. I still don't know. Finally, at 8:35, we pull out of the station.
Only to make a complete circuit around the block -back to the station-. Why?
THE BUS WASN'T FUELED WHILE IT WAS SITTING THERE FOR AN HOUR AND A HALF.

So, 15 minutes after -that-, we finally get on the road to Dayton and get there at around 9:50.
