Facing The Fire Within Series on CEN | What Have You Left Behind?

It was a hot, humid day in the middle of Kansas City. The eight-hour shift seemed especially long for the veteran bus driver. Suddenly, a young woman, apparently upset about something, let loose with a string of unforgettable, not to mention, unrepeatable words. 

The bus driver, looking in his overhead mirror, could sense everyone around her was embarrassed by the string of profanity. Still mumbling, the angry passenger began to disembark a few blocks later. As she stepped down, the bus driver calmly said, “Madam, I believe you are leaving something behind.”

               She quickly turned and snapped, “Oh, and what is that?”

               “A very bad impression,” the bus driver responded.
