Unfortunately, attitudes to bus driving is at an all time low and passenger attitudes are also at rock bottom ultimately from some abysmal service offerings in recent times.
Replace bus driving with public sector. Just look at the trains, the postal service and the NHS. The amount of strikes at the minute seem like nearly every week.
