    The amount of money they make. Everyone is getting redundant. I was made redundant from 2 jobs due to costs in the last year and a half but i have always gotten back on my feet, as should everyone.

    The whinging is disgraceful and messing up Dublin worse by not having the buses.

    They should have put a dent into DB by driving and not taking the fair - its only as illegal as the picket lines themselves...

    Just so you know dublin bus have millions in profits as numbers are always steady etc.

    No. They do not make profits. It costs many many millions every year to fund Dublin Bus' losses. The taxpayer pays for the inefficient mess that is Dublin Bus.

    Admittedly that's not entirely the drivers' fault though.

    Dublin Bus is pleased to advise customers that services have resumed from Harristown depot.

    While drivers have returned to work, a reduced service will be operating this evening on the services listed below and a full service is expected to resume tomorrow morning. All other Dublin Bus services are operating normally. Further updates will be made available on this site as services resume.

    Dublin Bus wishes to apologise to customers for disruption to services during this unofficial action.

    You should just give up now as it's plainly obvious to everyone you don't know what you're talking about.

    The strikes were illegal, and we have illegal matter's covered in this forum's charter - if you support an illegal activity, or encourage it do it elsewhere because its not welcomed here.
