update: yet another bus blooper

You're waiting in line for your bus one morning.  It's gotten quite long, but you're near the front of it and the 246 is pulling up miraculously full of empty seats.  However, just behind it, the M30 is pulling up and will take you all the way to your destination.  It's a tough call, but seeing as you're going to be running for the same M30 at Wynyard anyway, you figure you might as well go for it now.  You leave your spot in line, go for it and ... the M30 is too full and decides even though it's supposed to, it's not going to stop at your stop today.

Epilogue:  You walk grumpily to the end of the long line and end up standing all the way into the city on another bus before catching a different metro bus from Wynyard.  Welcome to the weekend.
