Details, my good man?

I've taken a career as a bus driver.
Middle class, lots of free time one of the best pension plans on the continent, full benefits, easy work, so on and so on.

And because they have to have drivers around to fill vacancies if needed, they call people in early or on their days off (All overtime) to sit around in the garage waiting to do work. By union contract they need to pay a minimum number of hours for this too.

Like, seriously. I was called in early a few weeks ago just in case. I ended up playing a round of pool and some Halo, then going home after 2 hours because they didn't need me. Bu I got paid for four hours, all at 2.5x my regular pay (Which is $25/hr).

Government jobs are awesome.
