slimsid2000 Posted July 16, 2004 Share Posted July 16, 2004 In any industry (buses are no exeption) there are three interest groups: Shareholders Employees Customers All I am doing is making the case for the last of these, just as the drivers are making the case for employees.

Rich Posted July 16, 2004 Share Posted July 16, 2004 Yeah but while the buses are on strike we, the customers are left stranded unless we're on a route serviced by another bus company such as Yorkshire Terrier, Andrews et al Don't get me wrong I sympathise with their reasons for striking, I'm just being selfishly annoyed at the inconvenience the bus strike will cause me.

uncleheed Posted July 16, 2004 Author Share Posted July 16, 2004 hopefully the strike will be avoided.we have been balloted today but that will be rejected,so meetings should be held over the weekend and an improved offer may get passed on. Like I said,I will pass on any info as soon I get it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

*Twinkle* Posted July 16, 2004 Share Posted July 16, 2004 He needs to get to town for about 8am, 8.15 at the latest as he'd then have to catch the tram... If we can't find him a route, he'll simply have to move in at my house while they're striking, as we have both the 120 and the 123, not to mention the tram, which would be useful for him! My mum will be pleased lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain_Scarlet Posted July 16, 2004 Share Posted July 16, 2004 Originally posted by Abdul Amongst the lowest paid drivers in the country, but the expensive fares are an outrage. Where's all the money going? Do I need to ask that question? Wise words The drivers are entitled to a good wage for the job they do (apart from the ones who never answer when you say hi or cheers). But First as a compagny is pretty shhhhhh, buses or trains First is right bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
