The best place to find a 'decent search investigation' going on is at a bus station. That's because everyone around you and you yourself are looking for something which is very swift. You never know which bus passes in front of you and everyone's just moving their heads here & there in case if you miss the bus. And while you are travelling in State Transport, there's no chance you'll find a single bus on time - whether it's the time of arrival or departure. (Well, these words doesn't suit to local transport I think; airplanes are very well accustomed to it.)
And for the bus drivers? They are the most egocentric, idiotic, and high-tempered people on earth. Sometimes when I get late and the bus has started to move out of the station, I tend to do every hand signal I know of but these people ignore it like I'm an invisible being. They don't understand how important is it for you to reach the place where you wanna go or how everyday because of them you have to listen to scolding of some teachers.
Never mind that though. Because you never know what's happening in ones life. Let me tell you one thing though; a condctor's life is more miserable than a watchman's.
Someone has well-said,
"Zindagi bhi ek conductor ki tarah ho gayi hai...Safar bhi roz ka hai aur jaana bhi kahi nahi."
Meaning life's like a bus conductor, there's journey everyday but no destination.
