点评:Took the ferry from Weehawken, NJ to NYC on Friday afternoon on 9/11. Great trip. It went south when I got on the shuttle bus. I needed to get to Herald Square and asked an employee which bus would get me there. I was directed to the second bus in line. When I boarded I asked the driver a blonde Hispanic woman, if this would get me to Herald Square. She grunted some one word illegible answer. We left the terminal and headed crosstown on 42nd street. The driver leaned on her horn at every intersection as if that was going to move traffic. A few blocks later a gentleman called out that he’d like to get off. In a strong Hispanic accent she said “you missed stop. Wait for the next one.” When we got to 42nd and Bryant Park she turned around and looked at me and said “last stop”. When I said that I thought this would get me to Herald Square she pointed at the door and said “walk”. What a miserable individual. If you don’t like your job then quit and do something else. I also believe if someone could’ve understood English I would not have been misdirected.
翻译:9月11日周五下午,我乘坐渡轮从新泽西州的威霍肯前往纽约市。这是一次很棒的旅程。当我搭乘接驳巴士时,车子向南行驶。我需要前往先驱广场,于是询问工作人员哪路巴士能到那里。对方指给我看排在最前面的第二辆巴士。上车后,我问那位金发、西班牙裔的女司机这辆车是否能把我送到先驱广场。她只是哼了一声,给出了一个听不清楚的单字回答。随后巴士离开客运站,沿着第42街向城区方向驶去。这位司机在每个路口都按喇叭,好像那样就能疏通交通似的。几个街区后,有位男士喊道他想下车。她带着浓重的西班牙口音说道:“你坐过站了,等下一班车吧。”当我们到达42街和布莱恩特公园附近时,她转过身看着我,说:“最后一站了。”当我表示原以为这一站能到先驱广场时,她指着车门说道:“下车步行吧。”真是个讨人厌的人。如果你不喜欢自己的工作,那就辞职去做别的吧。我还认为,如果当时有人能听懂英语,我就不会被引向错误的方向了。
