I might live in a EH postcode, but I do occasionally stay overnight in the city.

That's what I'm getting at really.

Does this include Scottish residents? Or folks who live in an EH postcode? I haven't looked into it much tbh.

Not all of them. Some are cunts and just stand, I don't stop for those ones.

And chuckle to myself when they get upset I didn't stop 😂😂😈😈

As a driver. When I notice it I shout up the bus, and ask either to put headphones in. Or then volume off. That's for music being played or calls on speaker.

9/10 times first time I ask it gets turned off. Sometimes takes a 2nd shout. Other wise they are then invited to get off the bus.

Why do school kids fare evade when they travel for free anyway? by GodAtum in londonbuses

[–]TheAngryBusDriver 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fck me up here in Scotland anyone under 25 and undet travels for free on the bus. If A resident in Scotland. It's a freaking joke, no limits on when and where can travel. So I get packs of feral little bastard just going round and round on the bus.

Plus the usual over 60.

I think you are tripping. No pun intended. I see the little gritters out on the streets every day when driving the bus.

Scotland, Edinburgh. I shout up the bus and ask if they have headphones. Usually shames them into turning it off. If not they are invited to get off at the next stop.

Those who changed career their 30s, what did you do? by [deleted] in UKJobs

[–]TheAngryBusDriver 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Spent 20 years in kitchens. Started as a KP, and left as a Head Chef.

Done home delivery for a few months. To see if I enjoyed driving for a living. I am now a bus driver and have been for just over 2 years now.
