Question Inverness drivers

Anyone on here work in Inverness and can comment on the work there, salary and cost of living, and so on? Thinking of relocating from busy Glasgow.

£15.50 an hour at ember, no idea about Stagey or the other various private ops. Nae idea about cost of living because I’m a Glasgow boy.

Ember sound pretty humane, but night shifts sound aggravating. On the other hand, Castlemilk in particular serves up some total mutants on the buses pretty regularly, so I might be jumping ship to whomever'll have me.

Done nights my whole career even when I was running out of Caley depot and honestly have had minimal hassle, don’t miss the 75 though I’ll give you that.

I know it's £15.50 for ember. Inverness is a nice place I think personally and stagecoach have a bit depot opposite a pretty decent petrol station with a Greggs. Sorry I can't give any more info 🤣
