While traveling another passenger took one of my bags (containing a digital game value $99, custom sneakers value $400, knife block value $75) from the luggage compartment under the bus. Very unpleased about this.

Some staff need to get customer service training and it would help that all buses have a back up driver in case of emergencies.
