Greyhound has little to speak bad of . The manager and my personal experience being forced to pay for baggage not given the tags from origin of departure . Verbally assaulted . The man started saying how it was part of the rules while continuous comments to shut up that I was stupid and that while going into a stuttering fit . And ticks in speach pattern . It felt like I was having a stroke . And was neither allowed to speak on my behalf nor given even the human decency of hearing a full sentence about the rules a two bag one carry on one undercarriage in the ticket allowence .
