Compramos los tickets, informe desde que llegué que viajaría con mascota y lo traía en el guacal, después de casi 2 horas de espera, apareció una mujer indicando que no podíamos subir al bus con el perro y que necesitaba los tickets de vuelta, que ella nos devolvería el dinero, pero que no podíamos viajar, me sentí muy indignado, que falta de respeto tanto tiempo ahí y sabiendo que yo ya había informado de mi mascota, nos quitaron los tickets como si nuestro dinero no valiera y como si nosotros fuésemos quien sabe que clase de persona, nos dieron un trato muy injusto e incluso sentí que fue una gran falta de respeto, considero que deben arreglar los problemas en su empresa y trabajar con el personal para que no falten al respeto a los usuarios.
