CHICAGO, IL -- Local city bus driver Dennis Burman, 56, has started demanding that passengers look the other way when entering his bus. Other than the few people he recognizes as friends, the rest -- many -- will be ignored. "I'm just getting so sick and tired of people looking at me all the time," Says Burman. "I don't care if I'm the first person people see when entering the bus...I say screw 'em!" Friend and co-worker Patricia Olen, 35, feels Burman is being too unaccepting of his job givens. "Being the bus driver for the company means yeah, people are going to look at you and say hi. Dennis won't even acknowledge they're there I hear and starts driving away even when the passenger is only on the first step. I feel I should report him but I don't want to hurt his feelings." "What I should do is build a little cardboard box where I sit and paint it black," Describes Burman. "Then when people get on, all they see is this big black box. People won't say hi to a box." Other preliminary plans of his include louder than normal radio play, gorilla suit get ups, Halloween masks and posted signs that say "Talk to me, you're off". "I think my plans will work," Burman assures. "If they don't, I'll quit and become a security guard. No one talks to them." Greg Bowler, 73, passenger of Burman's bus for over 3 years has found his approach to driving both unorthodox and anti-social. "He swears at other cars and trucks to fill fourteen drunken sailors' mouths. I hate him really but I need to get places...and he's the only one nearest to me. I wish the guy in charge would fire him." "I loathe his inconsiderate carcass that insipid, bloated old *******." Yells Bowler's neice, 12. Burman reports his decision will be to keep working with the city and drive buses until something better comes along. |
