26th Post: Black Tuesday

Not in the mood to blog lately, but heck, I'll do it for the sake of doing it. Decided to go back to Kuantan yesterday, so I went to Pudu to buy bus ticket at about 3pm. Once I arrived there, I got dragged by a Malay to buy the ticket from Sutra Liner (supposedly that's the name, couldn't bother less to remember that lousy bus company's name) even though I originally wanted to buy my ticket from Transnational. Didn't think much about it as I thought it wouldn't make any difference. (which I'm proven wrong later)

Anyway, the bus is scheduled to depart at 4.30pm, so I waited there patiently. However, the bus still hasn't arrive at 5pm. So the other passengers and I were told to wait upstairs. Suddenly all the passengers swarmed to the company's booth and so I followed them soon after, then we were told that the bus break down and would only arrive later. Apparently the Malay worker had a quarrel with one of the Indian passenger about the refund stuff and they almost fight, it's not my business but that took up a lot of my time to get my money back.

A friendly Malay passenger told me that I can get a 6.30 ticket from Transnational, but by the time I got there the ticket for 6.30pm was sold out and the next bus would be 8.30pm. I wandered around and asked all the other booths but none has earlier bus to Kuantan. In the end, I gave up and bought the 8.30pm bus ticket. Buying the ticket from the Sutra Liner is the profoundest mistake I've ever made, I curse that freaking company sincerely: hope you'll bankrupt soon. And so I waited at the Pudu bus station from before 3pm to 8.30pm and reach Kuantan at almost 12.30am! I almost choke from all the carbon monoxide there, one of the most miserable day in my life. I shall affirm my stand again: Curse you, Sutra Liner and I'll never buy another ticket from your company again.
