Um Himmels willen, sagen Sie mir, wohin Sie wollen. Möchten Sie ein Langticket oder ein Kurzticket? Sind Sie unter 18 Jahre alt und benötigen ein Kinderticket? Tippen Sie für zwei Personen?! Sag es mir bitte 😭

Exact fare in coins? I am not a travelling medieval peasant I do not carry ‘coins’ on my person.
Do ya take visa?
I’m a driver. If they out the leap card on my reader and just look at me without saying anything I just charge the full fare. If the bitch and moan that they wanted a €1.50 I just tell them I’m a bus driver not a mind reader 🤷🏻♂️
Should be swipe your visa/mastercard as you get off and on. Easy as fuck, everyone would understand, including tourists. Plus half of Europe is doing it already, miles behind as usual
How far is a short distance and what’s the price for young adults / adults on the shorter distance I’d love to know!! Might save me a few bucks🤣
For city bus trips London made it easier when they brought in Oyster, and later Visa/Mastercard. All bus stops were put in one zone. You can travel on as many buses as you want with taps between 90 minutes. No discussion needed with the driver, faster boarding times.
Last time I told a bus driver where I wanted to go, he got all sassy about it!

It’s a beautiful haiku.
Customers please tell
The driver where you want
To go.
Exact fare,
Coins only.
Will the driver take me to Paris?
I’m skitting. My dad was a driver for 20 odd years a he says the same to this day. People walk past the giant scroll on the bus to ask if this is number 123 or going xyz. He’d always have a funny question to ask the person who asked him the dumb question. Usually it made the person asking laugh and they learned a lesson as well.
He also would not press the button to charge the leap cards if it was a route with different prices. Usually would get them to snap out of their headphones or mind to realise he’s waiting for them.
Leave you with a treat. My dad had a lot of clashes with ignorant people. There was one gem of a woman shouting and stopping him from moving off.
„Of you’re not getting on the bus. I’ve to ask you to step away from the door“ she stepped back from the door.
„whats your name? Whats your name!?“
„Why, don’t you like your own?“
Close the door and took off.
I tell my driver where I want to go and then HE DECIDES TO SKIP THE STOP. No thanks
You must be joking. Far too many times I’ve been overcharged after just telling the driver where I want to go.
Is „one fifty, please“ not easier than „opposite the Centra on [very long road]“ or whatever landmark pops into someone’s head? It was definitely easier when there were more fares but I assumed it had stayed the same.
