In India, buses ply to every corner of the country and are ably manned by local people who serve as drivers, conductors and booth managers. While drivers and booth managers do not always interact with us, the common passenger, it is the bus conductor who fishes through the crowd and ensures everybody reaches the stop he needs to.
