# The Star is a joke of a paper
and I am amazed anyone still reads it.

First takes it's customers for a ride, there is almost no competition. I guess the same is true for the staff, it's not like you can go an work for another company if you dislike how you are being treated.

# Stagecoach always seem willing to take our drivers
we are better trained and know more routes - but they work 12 hour days and don't get paid for their meal break, their union reps are weaker though. First are deliberately driving First South Yorkshire into the ground and they definitely treat passengers as a captive market - although they want to reduce the number of routes in South Yorkshire untimitely leaving a very poor transport service. Once again they have their greedy eyes fixed on the profittable routes like 47/48, 75/76, 52 and 41
