[Train drivers]

overpaid is a matter of opinion. And anyone who has that opinion should
spend a few full shifts in the cab.

You could also say that about nurses in A&E and constables on the beat.
Both of whom earn about half that of a train driver.

Of course you could. OK then, overpaid and underpaid are both a matter
of opinion, and in many cases that opinion could be modified by spending
significant time observing the job concerned.

So other than getting up for early shifts occasionally (which many other
jobs require), fill us in on what is so taxing about the job of a tube driver
that justifies them being paid twice as much as a nurse or a bus driver or a
police constable. Obviously theres some incredibly intellectually or
physically
demanding part of the job that we're just not aware of so please tell us what
it is.

Why don't you just google for the answers you got the last half dozen
times you asked that.

Why don't you butt out of a thread you have nothing to add to? FYI I have
googled on numerous occasions and I've yet to see ANYTHING which justifies
their grossly inflated salary. Though if you know otherwise feel free to
fill us in with your extensive knowledge on the subject.

Unlike you with your erudite contributions you mean? If you actually say
something interesting one day we'll be able to hear the collective gasps
echoing around the city.
