Greyhound Bus Station

On Thursday evening before the start of a three-day weekend, I visited the Greyhound Bus Station. Within the 30 minutes that my partner and I stayed, I found that most of the awaiting passengers were upset with the late arrival of the bus. One man was pacing back and forth , another passenger took out a book and one continually looked at his watch. I overheard a woman telling the teller that she was going to Memphis, Tennessee and needed to catch the bus at the right time to make the connection to another bus. Since this bus was late, she may risk missing the next bus. In the corners were plugs, which I guessed was a courtesy to those who wished to use their computers while they waited or perhaps plug in their phones, as a woman had done. Although there was a frustration with the late bus, I noticed that the Greyhound Bus Station may not be all that unreliable. They also offered other resources that I did not previously know about such as Western Union services to wire money from another place and Carts busses to transport San Marcos residents to places like Target and the Prime Outlets mall. Another interesting fact to note was that the store hours to the bus station were 6:30 a.m. to 9 p.m yet there were busses scheduled for 2 a.m. and 5 a.m. which may leave passengers out in the dark without shelter to wait for the bus.
