Bus driver Rudolf Skippar has a style that Helsinki residents can only dream of – listen to themselves and delight
HS in Tampere|The Tampere bus driver announces its passengers because he believes that interaction is the key to happiness. At its best, it can save someone’s day.
The abstract is made by artificial intelligence and checked by man.
Rudolf Skippari, a bus driver from Tampere, has been delighted with passengers since 1995.
The skipper drives the bus with an old -fashioned driver’s hat and wishes passengers a good day through the microphone.
He strives to spread good spirits and believes in the importance of a positive attitude in the midst of difficulties.
Bus The doors open in Tampere Central Market. The old -fashioned driver’s hat is chilled from the driver’s seat, and soon a friendly smile will be revealed under the lip.
When stamped on the ticket, the device has an acceptable sound.
« That’s right! It went password, Simsalabim! », The driver says.
Behind the wheel is sitting Rudolf Skippari. He drives Nyssen’s local buses, this time outlining 31 from downtown to Partola.
The skipper is not quite a normal bus driver, as he has been delighted with his announcements for decades. Soon the beep will be raging and the skipper raises the microphone.
« Although this morning is very gray, let’s hope the day brings a good karma. Have a nice start to you all! » The bus speakers are echoing.
This time, passengers smile. Sometimes the reaction is confusion, sometimes applause, the driver says.
Skipper He is from Tartu in Estonia, but has been driving a local bus in Tampere since 1995.
A happy, passenger -consideration has taken on a skipper from Germany and Austria, where he has been on holiday.
The skipper speaks for interaction. He regrets that today people are more buttons in the ears and looking at the phone on the screen, making it harder to get in touch.
« Usually in public transport, I always look at what drivers are doing. I’ve seen both iodine and singing drivers, » he says.
Those who drive in Helsinki know that sometimes drivers barely look at the rising passengers in the eyes. You can often just dream of a happy greeting.
When asked by a skipper what thoughts that arises, he becomes more serious for a moment.
« Then you don’t enjoy your work. It’s a bit of a double -edged sword. »
He points out that in Helsinki, public transport is more hectic and the driver must take more things into account.
On the other hand, even the capital of the capital is not always a great greeting or thanking people. According to Skippar, taking into account the driver is a specialty in Tampere.
« If you can’t thank the driver, then there is enough to wake up. »
More Work and school travelers are picked up. The skipper wishes everyone a good tomorrow and thanks for stamping the ticket.
The bus route is full of narrow driveways and site posts as the Tampere tram trails are expanded. A more poorly nervous driver might be terrifying, but the skipper is driving with a smile.
The talk with the supplier gets a surprising turn as the skipper turns from the old habit to the right. The second bus line would drive through it, but this turn should have been continued.
The bus has to do a U-turn. The task is difficult because there is not too much space on the driveway surrounding the site.
The interview is interrupted for a moment. Skippar must ask for help from the traffic controller.
He hits the bus forward and back until the translation succeeds. It is admirable how a positive attitude will remain in the driver’s difficulties.
« Great! » He praises the traffic controller and wakes him up for thanks.
The next challenge is the narrow intersection from which the bus should turn to its right route. Skipparin has to move a little site mark, and eventually the journey may continue.
The site market must be moved to allow the bus to turn next to the tram site.
Again, there is a badge. The bus speakers include the driver’s apologies to customers.
Skipper admits that failures are annoying. A good -natured driver also sometimes has bad days.
He can also survive by looking forward.
« Everything that hurts and happens is not getting it non -existent. It is a retired life. »
Many of the driver’s discouraged attitude would be to learn. The skipper believes that the most important thing is to believe in good, even if things do not always go according to plan.
“It can save the whole day or the rest of your life.”
The skipper seems very happy in his profession. According to him, a bus driver is an identity. The worries must be left behind when sitting on the driver’s bench.
« However, here we are dealing with people. »
Bus The number changes to Partola to 32. Now the direction is again the center of Tampere, and soon the school travelers will leave.
« Carefully stay at the stop kids, have a nice school day! » Runs from the bus speakers.
The cause of the skipper on the announcements is simple. When you get a good mood for others, it’s easy to smile yourself.
He chooses the topics of his announcements on the basis of the mood of passengers in the mood. From time to time, it may be necessary to announce proper feedback to passengers.
« For example, there would be a couple of tips to improve collaboration. That you remember if the bus drives past you, you won’t get there. If you don’t swing at the stop, she will not move in the bus, » Skippari says.
There is not always a microphone on the buses driven by Skippar, but even then the driver will say to passengers with a good desire.
Tampere’s gray morning has become sunny while driving. The delay caused by the route rushes has already been tightened.
« End well, all right. If not well yet, it’s not yet out, » Skippari says.
