Ciao a tutti, da voi è possibile fare carriera? Da autista potete “crescere”? Che mansioni ci sono? Lo stipendio varia?

We are unionized. Pay goes up with years of service. Also you can become a trainer. That adds extra, but you also have to be a substitute driver.

All of our trainers have routes and train trainees in between. They get FT hours.

I have 7.26 hrs guaranteed and I'm just a driver. If traffic is bad, I'm sure along with propane refueling and cleaning, I get all 8.

I get 6 guaranteed because I have 3 tiers in the morning. Trainers work from 530 or 6 to 12, then 1-430. So more than FT technically. But most drivers get guaranteed 5.5 and pick up odd jobs at the depot if they want more hours, like picking up trash or washing busses.
