Bit of a general question thread, but still sort of bus related. If you had to enter the bus industry - what would you do? Driver, Engineer, Management? Who would you want to drive for? Or your own company? The list goes on......

It's just I've heard a few people say previously that they would want to work on the buses some day, just interested in other people's thoughts.

Here's mine;

I would do University, keep my parents happy, get some degree in Business Management or whatever, and while I'm doing that do occasional service work with GNE.

After that, see how full time driving is, if I don't enjoy it, try and become a Depot Manager or something, maybe work for various companies (GNE, Arriva, East Yorkshire Motor Services, Lothian would be a few).

After I've got enough experience, I'd love to start my own company. Get a couple of scholars contracts, and do long distance coach work with about 10 coaches. Get a good income, and do that for a long time, hopefully pass it onto kids etc.

What about anyone else?
