I’ve just read this and had a bit of a chuckle to myself, as a former driver at more than one of the big three, I’ve been through pay talks and voted on the matter. I have an interest in the industry, but to have the proper “bus [removed]” being so derisory towards the drivers that make your bus [removed] possible is disgusting. Yeah they want more than is being offered but which unionised industry accepts the first pay offer. If they feel they have a bigger value than is being offered why not go for it. Just out of interest how much did your benefits go up, to enable you to be standing at the metro centre with your [removed] and your camera in the other?
