Strike While The Tyres Are Hot

Everyone’s favourite public servants, the friendly, neighbourhood Dublin Bus Drivers, have caused transport chaos this week after collectively storming off in a huff on Monday morning, resulting in over 50,000 northsiders having to walk to the dole office. Southside drivers are now starting to follow suit just for pig-iron, leaving hundreds of commuters standing by the side of the road like some wandering band of Roma gypsies begging for coppers.
My opinion? Fuck the lot of them! I have to go in and out of town every day on those cold, smelly, unreliable, overcrowded chariots of despair, and so should they should the need arise.
I might have had more sympathy if my old next door neighbour wasn’t both a bus driver with 3 houses, and a total prick.
(apologies for the fourth Dublin Bus related post in a week…this time it’s their fault)
Bus strikes are officially more annoying than any other strike. Its not like most of us have any other option that isnt miles out of our way.

Quit complaining. Our buses have toilets in them with NO toilet paper because the poor people steal it, and the ride always smells like sewage and shit sanitizer.
But are Dublin bus drivers vindictive like the ones in Rome? Today I was on two very long bus rides around the city (fun fun fun) and on both trips the drivers were nasty to passengers. Once it was an old woman running to the stop- a tragic if besmusing sight and he just drove on by and another was again an old woman who didn’t flag the bus down, just looked expectantly at it as the driver cruised by cackling to himself.
It was kind of funny but only because I was on the bus…

Waitress: Toilets on public transport? I’d love to see that on the Nitelink…
Red: Only ever on one Italian bus – well in one place, not in Rome, but I thought the drivers were pretty cool – we had no tickets, and he stopped in a town so that we could run into a tobacconists to buy one…
Manuel: I spend half of my life on buses, so I can hardly write about anything else at this stage..
Sarah: What else could I call it? rofl
