brooksy   10 #13 Posted June 13, 2007 I love this forum, someone starts a thread asking about bus drivers pay rates but it doesn't take long before some punk chips in. I pretty sure you missed out a few there though punk. You need to change jobs dude, that bus driving will kill you man. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

Whatif wewin   10 #17 Posted June 14, 2007 You need to change jobs dude, that bus driving will kill you man.  I have probably had more jobs than soft Joe, so I don't need to change just yet thanks (unless mabe I get caught on here, but it is my tea break) I passed a competance test to drive a bus in Liverpool, but that was over 20 years ago and I never took up that particular job offer. So bus driving won't kill me,though they way some of these first bus guys drive they could well be the cause of my demise when I am out cycling.
