Jobsworth or quite right?

A schoolgirl aged 11 years was refused entry to a school bus because she had forgotten her bus pass and left standing at the kerbside in Assier (Lot). The parents were obviously incensed. The girl had "changed her jacket" and left the pass behind.
The bus company has procedures to deal with this situation and should only exclude persistent offenders; here not the case apparently. The girl had no mobile phone so could not contact her parents. Happily her grandparents lived nearby so she found refuge there. The "intrangiseante conductrice" has been reprimanded and the girl and her parents reminded of the need to have the bus pass. We dont know if the driver was new or what the girl's attitude was, but it does seem a bit jobsworthy.
