NightRider services are mostly crewed by part time drivers who only drive during the nights that these services operate.Originally posted by patdog112:what is the average hour..?
read on the smrt advertisement... 5days a week basic pay is $1200...
how are drivers allocated to drive nite rider..? Rest in the day and drive in the night ? or is overtime work?
i think shortage la. many people whom i spoke to (esp uncles) avoid joining bus companies and they rather stick to become taxi driver or earn less as delivery driver earning abt $1.2K only per mth with no OT. and i know a few malay uncles prefer to drive private buses. possibility of avoiding public bus companies:Originally posted by patdog112:is singapore shortage of bc or too sufficient?
For SLBP is defintely shortage of BC... Some SLBP BCs need to do double shifts. Well almost double... Usually is A shift. Then followed by 2nd half of S shift. For the morning part of that S shift, no bus turn up.Originally posted by patdog112:is singapore shortage of bc or too sufficient?
erm its actually called "sam bong" means for an A/P shift bus with no P shift driver, the A shift driver drives a round trip for the P shift before going off service to depot. That's for long haul routes. Short haul dunno how many trips... good gauge is 6+ or 7+... meaning to say that the A shift driver is as good as a T shift driver with 13h35 payhourOriginally posted by stooper:For SLBP is defintely shortage of BC...
