This is done serious mismanagement on part of Arriva. Why the actual fuck would you put the onus of educating personnel on the guy they have been mistreating for years?

You are a global multi billion dollar company. Get some actual consultants in.

  As a non-wheelchair cripple that bus driver should probably be shot to see what it feels like. For science ofc
