Do you clap at every bus stop, too? That's their damn job.

I definitely say thank you when getting off the bus.

It's honestly really sad that so many people think people doing a job is somehow not only undeserving of gratitude, but will judge other people for expressing gratitude.

Thanking and clapping are rather different.

[-] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 2 points 10 months ago

Generally, the pilot is in the cockpit and can't hear you thanking them when you've landed. But they can hear clapping.

[-] detalferous@lemm.ee 7 points 10 months ago

No but I clap at performances where it's their job.

If my bus ride is 14 hours in one direction, you're damn right I'm clapping. Though it's not entirely for the pilot, it's for being allowed to move freely again.

Yeah I can get away from that screaming infant now.

[-] EddoWagt@feddit.nl 5 points 10 months ago

I do thank the bus driver when I get out

[-] echodot@feddit.uk 1 points 10 months ago

If he's tried to palm off some foreign coin on me though in my change, he's not getting a thank you, he needs to learn his lesson.

Ha, you guys still pay in cash? We can check in with our debitcard here in the Netherlands

[-] ChiefSinner@lemm.ee 2 points 10 months ago

I mean, I would if the bus was up a few miles above the road for a couple of hours and landed safely.
