I think those buses are worth nearly €200k a piece, they don't want them wrecked.

YOU HAVE 3 PRODUCERS! And a stand in host who describes his role on the show as a FULL-TIME Host!!!!!!!

Be fair. Today may be their summer holiday, so they are not in, or they are waiting for a bus that hasn't come.

"Not one person that doesn't support the strike. "

Honestly what a load of sh1te. You had not one person that wanted to walk to their destination, that's what you had.

Don't be confusing Joe with big numbers like 4 and 5.

Ffs, will we have this Repak ad every single day before 3pm?

PeterTheNinth

I'd love to know what Stalin would have done with the bus drivers.

6 kids, I find it beyond baffling and irresponsible to have that many if you can't support them

That_Guy

Hard to feel sorry for that poor caller.

6 kids seems extremely irresponsible especially when you can't afford to provide for them and your missus.

I HATE the way anytime he praises one person, he has to parise everyone in the same position.

Its like Fr. Ted "they're all lovely girls"

"Married To A Bus Driver"...could be a good name for an adult movie so to speak?

ThisRegard

I know a guy that was a bus driver years ago. He was paid pretty well, would work every Sunday he could because of the amount he'd be paid. Had to compete with the more senior staff though as they always wanted them.

Guarantee though that the fact they have to work Sundays would be used in the poor drivers argument thrown out by the unions despite many wanting to work them.

Our fault again, entitled caller, feck off
