And remember, George Harrison’s dad drove a bus…
Did he meet the bother on the buses too?
mother. I mean Mother
It’s dangerous being on the buses
Look what happened to Reg Varney
The bus driver I was chatting to said it was the best job he’d ever had.
Being a bus driver allows you to go places.
I could use the change..boom tish!
As long as you don’t get tickets on yourself ….
… you could drive people around the bend if you’re not careful!
A mate of mine gave up an EL1 position in the APS to become a bus driver. He reckons it’s the best decision he ever made (i.e it’s a great way to meet women).
Personally, I gave up riding on buses when the bloke in front of me coming home one night kicked a women on the other side of the isle while he was sniffing glue. I don’t particularly want a job where the passengers have more rights than the driver, who apparently can’t kick idiots off buses any more and can’t refuse to give someone a ride if they don’t have the fare. Sheesh.
I can’t join as I’m not overweight, have a grey beard or like to wear shorts with socks pulled up to my knees.
The grey beard rules me out too. Mine is still brown.
Granny – I see quite a number of female bus drivers so I’m sure they would overlook your brown beard…
Yes, well I am looking for a job. It will help me pay the now $10,000 for the car I smashed up. Do you all feel afraid yet?
; )
I applied for action about 3 months ago and got knocked back
They say they don’t hire people that weigh over 120 kg’s I do weigh over 120 kg’s but that has not stopped me being a truck driver for the last 10 years
Personally I think that discrimination
You’re just a fat bastard. Admit it
Luv ya Towie hahaha
LOL you only LUV me for the free tows !!! admit it
When have I ever got a free tow hmmmmmmmm?

Or a Tasmanian.
I can be quite a cranky prick on here, I’m sure JB can confirm that. Maybe I should apply – I seem to have two thirds of the skill required it would seem??

I know, Canberra towie is really meant to be 200cm tall, but stopped growing suddenly when he was 14.
