30K? Oh is that all. Perhaps they'd like share options while they're
at it?


Bus driving is for retarded cretins, why should they get 30K for doing
a job a trained chimp could do?


Are you a retarded cretin or a trained chimp?



You obviously are a retard and have the brain cells of a chimp to post
a comment like that for all to see!

As a bus driver it takes approxamatley 8 - 12 weeks on meger pay to
actually gain the license and the we have to put up with arseholes
like yourselves on a daily basis, this does not include the black cab
drivers the mini cab drivers and the so called other road users who
seem to enjoy playing russian roulette with a 12 tons bus and then
wonder why the driver gets irrate and when we do have an accident its
always the bus drivers fault that the idiot in the car pulled out in
front of them or cut them up or jump the lights or cut in front of
them.

We run the daily guanlet of abuse from idiot passengers who think you
are tourist information and then get abusive when you cannot help them
plan a route around the country for them, and the idiots who think TFL
run a free service and you are there daily taxi and not a bus service,
then the kids who seem to think that just because they have a reciept
from the post office to say they have applied 6 months ago for an
oyster card this gives them the right to yet again abuse the poor
driver as they think they can travel for free with a reciept because
the idiot at the post office said they could when infact they cant.

We deserve danger money let alone 30k a year for providing a service
that should we all decide to go on strike the underground would not be
able to cope and London would be brought to a stand still, if thats
what it takes then that is what we are willing to do to be appreciated
for the job that we do.
