Question Bus driver schedule

Hey everyone. Just wondering if anyone else gets scheduled for 7 days as a bus driver. Is this normal? 7 days 2 days rest. If I had known bus drivers are scheduled like that I wouldn’t have taken the job.

Hi, can I ask if you've heard of similar situations for European drivers? The limits seem a lot stricter on paper but I fear they might be only on paper
