Types of people you meet on a bus journey

Bus is one such means of transport which is accessible by almost every individual today. If you're a frequent traveller needless to say, you start to observe the people around you. Usually it's a mixed bag. But there are a certain type of people that you come across quite often in any bus journey. Here are #mytop5 observations for you.

1. The WindowSeat Hunter

Who doesn't like to sit next to a window. Be it bus, train, flight or even cruise for that matter. Given an option we first enquire if the window seat is available. No harm in it. It's a common human tendency. But there are quite a few people who are so obsessed with the windows. These people can do anything for the window seat. They will reserve it with their handkerchiefs, push the ones who are ahead of them and even pretend to be sick sometimes as though they can thrown up any time soon! Their favorite hobby is to stare endlessly into the horizon through that tiny window.

2. The Nosy Aunty

If there's anything that comes free in India, it has to be the Nosy Aunties. Right from your neighborhood, to weddings, to any random bus journeys. You can spot them everywhere. They are gifted with HD lens in their eyes and a million TB storage in their brain. Aunties can be liked or disliked but can never be ignored. No bus journey will be complete without a nosy aunty. She will dig your past, give brilliant advices for your present and even predict your future. Family, education, job, marriage, kids no topic goes uncovered. Oh yeah, how can I forget this! You cannot escape without answering this question from her, "So tell me, how much do you earn monthly?"

3. The Sleepy Head

These love to nap and can sleep like a baby irrespective of all the noises around. They often wake up confused asking "Where is the bus now?" At times they might just oversleep and when they do wake up sadly their stop has passed. Oopsie! Thats not it. If you are unlucky, you might be sitting next this sleepy head. Guess what! Your shoulder becomes their pillow for the day!

4. The Music Lover

Nothing matters to them except their cellphone and headphones. They are the most chilled out people in the bus. Only person who can hate them is the conductor. Often, they are so engrossed in their music that they don't even realize that the conductor is calling them to issue ticket! Then the conductor takes a full toll on the current generation, huge slate like phones, technology, manners blah blah blah. He goes on until he is satisfied. Yet, they are the peace lovers. Thats not All. Apparently, there is another community of music lovers. They assume they are on a picnic ride. They have the worst playlist ever which they play on high volume! They are the reason, rest of us are getting entertained. Or to put it rightly, tortured!

5. The Cry baby

Haven't you come across this anytime? You are heading back home after a long tiring day. Or you are traveling at night. When you are just about to catch sleep, you hear a loud cry. Ahhhh, the babies! No matter how hard you try there is no escape from that shriek, piercing your eardrums. They somehow manage to cry loudly for two straight hours for no apparent reasons. This often make me question the entire concept that babies are supposed to be cute! Aren't they?
