Nah, the job is what you make of it. If you choose to be stressed out then you're not going to have fun at all.

Only a little over 2 hour splits. I can work out, eat lunch and surf the net for a bit. Better than the 4 hour ones that I'm getting now :heckno:

Love it......... transit bus drivers on RS. And so many. I have so much respect for you guys.

Poor drivers who have to do the Powell Street run. The last time I rode a bus on that route, I nearly passed out from the smell.

Gunsmokez 06-14-2015 03:29 PM

Yeah that was my class. We started off with 6, 1 failed the road test of the icbc portion and another quit for personal reasons even after completing the 1st 2 weeks.

They had a class of 8 and another class of 12 after my class, training said that they're set to have training class every 2 weeks until the end of the year so we're not going to be junior very long :)

Come say hi to me if you see me around the depot :thumbsup:

Besides the obvious... like what kind of experience, how many years, specific certifications, or anything that'll make one's application stand out from the rest

yeah community shuttle driver isn't worth it for me. already make more than that and work is 7km from home.

considering the skytrain attendant position though..

Alby 06-22-2015 08:27 PM
Skytrain Attendant (STA) from the website

Spoiler!


the internal posting seems to be the same as the public one. only difference in information is the wage that is posted.

TypeRNammer 06-24-2015 10:05 AM
Skytrain is now looking for a full time parts driver.

Pay is about $24 an hour plus benefits.

Head over to the translink website and go to the careers section.
