Globalhue cost us as much as the AC. It was when they were under contract that the Grand Hyatt project fell flat on its face.

The reason for 25-11 was because things weren’t going right otherwise there wouldn’t have been a 25-11 in the first place.

The schedule was abandoned because drivers not getting enough rest?

They sit on their a$$ all day and drive 35 for an hour have a coffee and then hit the road

Like all other private services that operate on two or more shifts that are considered ‘normal working hours’ and there is no overtime except on public holidays this is what the bus driver’s schedule should consist of.
Had it not been about milking the taxpayers for the maximum amount of money possible I’m sure the new schedule could have come into effect 16 years ago.

But all these guys think is 25-11 and “Jetgate” while ignoring anything about the multitude of issues the PLP had, including their own Jetgate which is conveniently ignored.
