Spoken like a teacher: "Don't make me get off this bus!"

Just had to vent. I'm going to a conference in a different city. The organizers are providing transportation from the airport to the hotel. I boarded the bus at the same time as several colleagues. Before we leave, it has to go to another terminal. I've never been to this airport and the other passengers were friendly in giving me directions. We get to the second terminal, and the driver leaves the bus for 10 minutes. Comes back and parks in a loading zone. Announces that he is going to pick up another person that wasn't at the first terminal. 15 minutes later, he is back, and excuses himself, saying he's going to walk across the terminal to find the missing passenger. <br><br>He leaves the bus for 25 MINUTES. And a whole bus full of teachers is getting anxious. I don't want to be "that person" so I said nothing. But I want to scream. Some of the passengers start making noise. You know a bus full of teachers isn't going to be patient. One of the other passengers (not an educator) heads out to find the driver. Driver eventually gets back on the bus, and the passenger that went to find him gets on and says, "Don't make me get off this bus!" <br><br>The driver was so clueless about how mad everyone was.
