    Everyday is different, meeting new people and a change of scenery. You kinda your own boss, obviously with rules and training. You know exactly what your day is going to be so your never really bored.

    Worst thing

    The hours are so random. Gives you jet lag. You miss a lot of family events. You have to be a calm person otherwise the stress of the roads will get to you.

  • Best thing

    I have met lots of friends and the bus pass is nice to have.

    Worst thing

    You are expected to do way to much in a very limited amount of time and I don't feel management fully understand what's going on and then they complain that the work isn't good but then haven't even tried to do what the night-shift are expected to do.
