am i being over sensitive

i have been driving in london for 6 months now

the actual driving part is fine… but… passengers…

i always look at the passengers as they board, acknowledgement, smiling, etc. and for the record if i didn’t do this and had a mystery traveller, i’d get marked down.

but here’s the thing, majority of passengers don’t even look at me, i can physically see them avoiding eye contact, they almost look disgusted sometimes. i get that this is london, but come on. it’s even worse when you’ve waited for someone running and open the doors again, and they don’t even look at you or say thank you, as if another human didn’t just acknowledge you and opened the doors so you could board the bus.

it just feels so dehumanising.
