If by chance the chap that was running for the bus at 06:00 this morning outside the Kirkstyle Garage reads this blog............I have complained to George Devine at Stagecoach on your behalf. The bus was early this morning, shown by the fact that we waited at Blackburn, the Airport and Moat House at Bucksburn, so there was no excuse for the driver not waiting for you.
It is that last thing you need at that time in the morning and the drivers should show some sense and responsibility.

Running Early
The bus wasnt running early. If it was it would not have waited at any stops it would have kept going and arrived at least 25mins early at the station. As you must be aware stagecoach in its wisdom have given the drivers far too much time between TIMING POINTS. For Example it dosent take 9mins from Monymusk to Kemnay taking it easy it takes only 5mins. So the bus that morning would have also waited at Kemnay High Street.
The drivers are not allowed to stop and wait for people who are late its unfair on those passengers who are on time. BUSES RUN FOR PEOPLE WHO WAIT, THEY DONT WAIT FOR PEOPLE WHO RUN. This was told to myself by a manager. If we waited at every stop for people that were late would you not complian about getting home 30mins late every nite? Maybe its not the drivers but the system/rules under which the drivers operate.
