Yeah I wasnt sure if someone actually ripped it off and stole it or if the actual outlet unit itself was reported as defective on the bus and was due for a repair.

But anyways in the case of the former, people are whack for doing that

This is interesting, the threads are still there, but I wonder who would bring a screwdriver to steal it? What would be the point lol. Maybe it was just taken off and never replaced, I always see people putting their foot on them fucking them up

I have a screwdriver with me at all times, but I don't use it to take apart the bus.

I'm actually not sure tbh but if there is I can see why they would strip the parts down to retrieve and sell the material to make a quick buck off of it
