What. U work at bbdc??
Some instructors jumped ship to bus driving. I believe they are back to square one. Unlike other kind of jobs, they won't give chance to bus driver or driving instructor to eat snake. Every secs of you at work are translated directly to their profit :unsure:

I ever heard from a former colleague (keling) that his bus driver uncle became an alcoholic. Is bus driving so stressful? Also, why whenever there's an accident. The police always handcuff the bus driver? Sounds like a thankless job.
