Staff at ticket counter was unprofessional. She wasn't aware of terms and agreements provided online. She insisted on a non-existing confirmation number.

even though I arrived 10 minutes early to pick up my ticket, the staff had everyone waiting in line in a panic - saying he didn't care if we just had to pick up a ticket and there was a long line - he was leaving at the specified time, even if there were 10 people waiting to get there ticket. And he was rude on the bus as well, and the bus was absolutely freezing with only cold air blowing, in the middle of winter - I'd prefer no air to cold air. Additionally there was this loud beeping noise - like when a door is left open for almost the entirety of the 4 hour trip.
