I think if I drove a bus around all day, every day I'd soon develop a terrible hatred for humanity. And a funky smell. Guy I used to know was a bus driver, he ended up topping himself.

Wage sounds rather poor. You need a thick skin to stand that abuse but you're safe in your cab. Think of nurses and paramedics who face worse and are more vulnerable. Those are likely jobs people actually wanted to do and pay better so god knows how you'd end up as a bus driver. That said surely you just get the fcuk on with it so I can't justify them being cnuts but it's probably par for the course in that profession. In fact looking at 'pay and conditions' they should probably strike twice as much as other transport staff. I know of one who has come off on top of 2 incidents with passengers. One fight and one misbehaving youth smashing in to the upper deck windscreen after he intentionally slammed on the brakes. Still driving busses but again you could argue they put up with a lot of sh1t.

Two incidents today. One was a woman in her sixties trying to get her bus in Bishopsgate and the driver drove off before she could get despite most people waiti at the stop aski him to wait. The second was in Croydon where the driver wasn't listening to people asking him to stop because the buttons on the lower floor weren't working. He would speed past stops despite people asking him to stop. Now as you all know, I am not one to slap an entire section of society with one label, but I do believe that all bus drivers are c***s. Does anyone have any evidence to the contrary or can any Palace supporting bus drivers please defend their own kind?

I really find it hard to imagine a worse job for me (that I could actually do). The guy I knew, was Boring Bob the Bus Driver. Nice enough guy, but he could bore the paint of the walls. Everyone knew him as Boring Bob the Bus, and with hindsight that probably contributed somewhat to his eventual suicide I guess (though his brother also killed himself about three months before).

I remember a number of years ago we had a thread on here about bus drivers...I made the comment that bus drivers were c***s and the next guy posting was a bus driver and went mad at a few of us. That is all.
