No good deed goes unpunished, right?

All this person was trying to do was help out a fellow human being and he ended up getting some grief for it.

Check out what he had to say in this story from Reddit.

Start now!

I helped someone to the bus stop and the bus driver asked me where he was going.

“I was at a hospital getting ready to leave and a man in a wheelchair asked if I could push him to the bus stop.

Sure, why not?

I said yes, I could even though I don’t work for the hospital or the transit agency.

The bus stop was about 100 feet from where I encountered the person who requested assistance.

I pushed his wheelchair to the bus stop and told him to apply the wheelchair brakes until the bus driver arrived back from what I assume was his break.

As I was walking away, I passed the bus driver who must’ve seen me pushing this man towards the bus stop. As we were passing each other, he gruffly asked me “where is he going?”

No clue!

I replied “I don’t know, he asked for my help to get to the bus stop.”

In retrospect, I think I should have said that “He speaks English, so maybe you should ask him.”

Ahhhh, the post-encounter clarity that happens.”
