crookedspire Posted September 13, 2015 Share Posted September 13, 2015 We seem to live in a world of me me perhaps a by product of political thinking . Recently I had to give first aid to a ill bus driver only me and a old couple stayed to give help the rest of passengers left to get on the next bus not bothering to help so has compassion died and been replaced by selfishness?

dangerousedd Posted September 13, 2015 Share Posted September 13, 2015 hmm hard to tell, last time I went through Hillsborough precinct an old Chinese chap had fallen and hit his head. there was several people tending him and somebody was ringing an ambulance when I got there, I could have hung around but didn't see the point as he was being well taken care of. maybe the passengers thought you were doing a good job and they'd only be in the way?

Oh for gods sake..you helped didn't you, and a couple of others. What do you want, a medal? Maybe you just wanted a rant on how compassionate you are and the rest are "a by product of political thinking ****e" . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The worst thing in this scenario is too many people gathering round. You and a couple of others did what was needed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eric Arthur Posted September 14, 2015 Share Posted September 14, 2015 Some people need an audience for their compassion. If the passengers won't watch, Sheffield Forum can hear all about it instead. Otherwise well done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gamston Posted September 14, 2015 Share Posted September 14, 2015 Maybe most of the passengers walked off the bus before the OP and the elderly couple helped the driver ? My observations are that the general public are compassionate if someone has an accident or appears to be having problems in a public place . Too many people hanging around could be unhelpful .

Timeh Posted September 14, 2015 Share Posted September 14, 2015 Yeah, well done op but wind your neck in as im sure if you hadnt have helped someone else (one of these uncaring sorts) would have but as someone else said crowding the driver wouldnt have helped.

SqueakyPete Posted September 14, 2015 Share Posted September 14, 2015 Too many cooks... Like others have already said though,if it looks like the person in need is being looked after,and I have nothing to add,what use am I standing and gawping?

My point is if I and the other couple were not their would have any of other passengers helped? The bus wasn't full , when it became clear that something was wrong I heard more than one person say how inconvenient for them and soon as they saw a another bus upped and left.
