Put my first name before the at to reply.


Then why are people always complaining that bendys are free? (Not
that that wasn't necessarily the ultimate intention.)

Anyway, they don't have to be the in the same job as the old
conductors or on all routes or at all times of day. It would be good
to have someone extra on night buses, say, who could, among other
things, sell reasonably-priced cash tickets to new arrivals and people
who can't top up.
