(Yesterday, 10:05 pm)ReDemPTiion wrote Anyone on here worked for Percy Main? I’m a driver at Stagecoach have been for 10 years but due to the route I am currently doing being lost to another operator and I’m not a fan of the other routes at the depot I’m thinking of a change. Riverside is closer to me but I don’t fancy working out or Gateshead interchange. The routes at Percy Main interest me more and I’m wondering if it’s worth it? 

Where do drivers get their breaks? 
Are they paid weekly like Stagecoach? 
Is it one big rota and you do all routes or is it like Stagecoach where each route has their own rota? 

Anyone able to respond would be much appreciated.

I'm not a driver there, however last year I did get an information pack off them as there were voluntary redundancies doing the rounds at my current employment.  From what I remember, breaks were back at the depot.  Paid weekly.  I only got a sample in the pack, but my understanding was you did all routes and the rota was split by 4 day, 5 day, new driver, late rota, split rota etc

As for Riverside, if the rotas are still the same you'd start/finish at the Metrocentre for the most part if you could get on the red rota.  Anything going through Gateshead though, if you take a bus from the depot chances are you'll sign off at Gateshead and have to make your own way back for your car.  Or vice versa.
