"Pilots don't understand us or even listen sometimes..."
Landing on 34R at VNY Monday. Female ATC voice that was not familiar to me. We need to cross 34L to get to the Aero Club. As soon as we are on the ground, she says "cross 34L at foxtrot without delay..." In the background we here a senior male controller shouting " No, No, No!". Then she comes back and tells us to hold short. We already were.

Turns out she was a trainee and was going to have us cross 34L as a plane was landing. We do listen.
