a story about my life...

i got up very early yesterday to get a new television remote from the cable company... i did,but the trip reminded of a bus trip that i took about twenty one years ago,on a Regional Transit bus... that day,twenty one years ago,i had athlete's foot so bad that it ripped off layers of skin off my feet... so i went to the hospital to get medication for it,got a prescription for an ointment,and proceeded to go to a pharmacy... well,i got on the bus,and the bus driver insulted,complained,and embarrassed me about the way that i looked,and also mentioned my feet... i then told him that i was sorry,but i was going to a pharmacy to get medication,even showing him the doctor's prescription... that shut him up,that day... that should have been the end of it,but it was not the end of the argument that i had with that scumbag... about a month later,after my feet healed up,i ran into him in a Carl's Jr,and he started in on me again,in front of the morning rush of the restaurant... this time,i was pissed... got the bus number,and time of the bus trip,and directly went to the Regional Transit office at 29th and N street... i talked to his supervisor,explained politely about the situation,noting that i may have been homeless,but i was a person,and that i was not going to take that crap from the scumbag of a driver... i said point blank that if the scumbag said another word to me,i would file a lawsuit against Regional Transit,and the scumbag driver(and i would want the scumbag fired),and i politely shook his hand,and left... well,actually,that was not quite the end... about three years later,i ran into the scumbag driver,again,and he said something to me again,so i sternly looked into his eyes,and said bluntly to him,"that is not acceptable",and he finally got the point,so i sat down,smiling...
