WOW. Such an atrocious day.
First I nearly miss my bus because I fell asleep on the T. I get to South Station (at 6:15 for a 6:15 bus) and get my ticket, and for some reason because I'm traveling past Portland, they let me go ahead of 20 other people in line into a nearly packed bus. I tell him I'm going to Wiscasset and the other guy who got to skip ahead says Bowdoin. As he's about to toss my stuff in, he says "you're Bowdoin, right?" I clearly say "No, Wiscasset." He then acknowledges this and tosses it in. Then, 3 hours and 5 stops later, my luggage is gone. I talked to a manager on the phone and he was all non-chalant about it and told me to call in the morning. He also said he checked (did not specify his location) and there was nothing. He told me that it may be there in the morning and if it is I will get it, however did not specify as to whether or not they will replace my stuff. I had 5 shirts, 5 pairs of shorts, 6 pairs of boxers, 8 pairs of socks, a Patriots hat, and a pair of sandels. Altogether I'd put the price of my stuff at the $200 range. What measures do I take if my stuff is gone? The bus was called Concord Trailways and it left from South Station in Boston to some store in Wiscasset. It made stops in Portland, Bowdoin, Bath, and one other town. I'm really upset and I know a lot of this info is unnecessary, but it's pissing me off. Thanks for any help.
