MEM Crew Bus Driver
 
Beware. There’s a driver. A Caucasian male with a short pony tail in his 50’s, 60’s. A true “mask nazi patrol”, who will call you out on drinking AOC coffee or eating on his bus while enroute to your a/c gate! Even momentarily while your “cake holes” NOT covered up! Technically it’s a Federal offense. According to a recent FCIF. Don’t these psycho’s have anything else better to do?! This is making our job such a grind. I have to remind myself at the end of the day that my paycheck’s, and flying these great jets is more rewarding after I was ****ed off!

Thanks for the heads up. Karen comes in all forms :-(

Experienced this driver last week. I pulled my mask down momentarily for facial recognition on my iPhone to make a call to jumpseats. I thought he was joking at first but he yelled several times not keep the mask on properly. Interesting experience to say the least.

How about just constantly reminding him to keep his eyes on the road/hazards in front of him every time you see him glaring at everyone in the rearview? The guy is a jack@ss.

You guys must not realize the danger you are putting others in when you don't have your mask on properly. Cases are surging all over the world, people are testing positive everywhere and turning into zombies from this horrible bubonic type plague virus.

I've dealt with people like this my entire life. He probably heard stories about how much you guys are making and it starts to get to his head. With the masks being required, he finally gets his chance to "one up" the pilots. It makes him feel powerful and respected. He hopes you get angry and confront him so he can either tell you off more or report you to management. Best to just ignore him.

Yelling at coworkers is not acceptable. I would have reported him. But that’s just me. I don’t tolerate ANYONE yelling at me unless I’m about to endanger you (hasn’t happen yet).
