What to do with the bus driver?

OK, here's the thing: I take the bus to the train station every morning to commute to work. However, the bus never arrives exactly on time due to traffic on the route. So far, so annoying, but not a big deal.

I find a particular bus driver who operates this route quite frequently and extremely annoying. Because—and I can't think of a plausible reason why he does this—he thinks it's necessary to make a special stop at the construction company's building on a regular basis. The bus driver goes in, does whatever he wants, stays there for about two or three minutes, then gets back on, and only then drives to the next scheduled stop.

And of course I don't get to the station on time to catch the train.

He's been pulling this scam for at least two years, and I recently complained to the bus company. I'm not sure if the bus driver will even get through to me, though, because this complaint has to go through a lot of people. I don't dare approach the bus driver myself either; I get way too emotional in these situations, especially when it's been going on for years, and I simply don't want to get kicked off the bus for something like that.

The only thing I can think of right now is to file a complaint, because I can't think of anything else. They have a duty to be punctual, and this is regularly ignored, for the same reason, which is not only completely incomprehensible to me, but also completely irresponsible.

I don't know what the facts here should be to justify an ad.

Talk to the bus driver, say personally with someone from the operator company or adapt to the actual driving time of the bus.

I ask myself why you're not just driving a bus earlier. It seems to burden you.

You can't change the bus driver, but your own run.

uh, sorry: The road map is a road map and this is not a general recommendation to depart in such a way.

Apparently this is only a problem with the individual bus driver!

On the other hand, it would have been denied for a long time:

Here in a control center you can see exactly what each bus does: In the screen at the bottom right is even displayed when the doors are open: These are the green filled fields!
It's disgusting if there's a connection going to flee because a driver slops!

And take a bus earlier, possibly still in hours, or 2 hours, like from Tangermünde to Genthin, as an example, is a freak!

You don't get to the closest and simplest???

Take a bus earlier, then you're always on time.

It's so easy.

Take a bus earlier or buy a car.
