summon a bus

To light a cigarette while waiting for a bus at a bus stop. Derived from the belief in murphy's/sod's law, which states that a bus (on which smoking is not permitted) will always arrive shortly after a cigarette is lit.

Bus Surfing

The act of attempting to ride a bus by standing in the aisle like a surfer. The goal is to stand for as long as possible without touching anything (seats, poles, people) for support.

Often a competition between two people to see who can stand the longest.

''On the way home last night I was bus surfing for a full 3 minutes!''

Typically referring to the risk associated with the tribal knowledge someone has that puts a project or business at risk when they leave the company.
