There was a news item some weeks ago about Polish bus drivers being recruited by London Transport- these guys tend to be so polite and communicative that I am looking forward to seeing them on the buses. Probably a generalisation but I've found Eastern European businesses and shop/ tradespeople so nice to deal with from a courtesy point of view- not so often found in the west.
Bus driving is a semi skilled job where there is a shortage of qualified personnel. Those in the job currently tend to be overworked and perhaps not the happiest as a result. They also suffer a lot of violence and abuse from the public so probably which probably forms their attitudes and behaviour. The sad thing is that whilst economic migrants fulfil a need in the UK and do a great job, it doesnt do much for the local UK skill base in the future. Theres a bigger issue.....
