Newscopy: "Reginald Simpkins, 39, drives a Municipal Railway bus eight hours a day, six days a week. How'd you like to ride the Turnerville Trolley that steadily? And handle cranky passengers, too? Mr. Simpkins never loses his temper, though. 'People respond to good humor,' he says. 'I try to answer their questions and get them where they're going, safe and on time.' Fruits of his policy are found in Muni's letter files - hundreds of grateful riders have written in to commend Mr. Simpkins for courtesy and helpfulness beyond the call of duty. He and the other city workers pictured here are good public servants. They symbolize thousands of others who every day do the jobs that keep San Francisco's municipal affairs running."
