If I am the president of my own bus co.
-
This topic expresses freedom of what people would do if they are the presidents of their own bus companies. There are bus models and stuff in which we wish they didnt exist. Therefore, this topic gives us freedom to write what do we want to do with our own bus companies (buy new bus models such as the Volvo B7TL, amend and make new routes, how to reach customer satisfaction etc).
-
Volvo B9L, MAN A22 only for SD.
Volvo B9TL, MAN A95 only for DD.
-
To me, I would buy bendys for the airport services. In the meantime, I would sell some Citaros/Scanias/A22s I bought to SMRT since they need buses more

It is okay to have a fantasy bus company. This was a very old practice that has fell out of favour in the past few years. There is nothing wrong with being detailed with your own fantasy bus company.

Every employee work only 5 days a week, 8 hours a day.
Three shift timings: 3am to 11am; 10am to 6pm; 5pm to 1am.
Meal breaks at 10am, 5pm and 12am. During which the next shift takes over. The employee can go home, since his work and already.
The bus drivers working third shift only need to park their buses at the bus interchange or terminal. Then the 3am shift people later come collect and bring back to depot.
Bus services operate from 5am to 12am.
Employee bus transport provided for last shift people to go home and first shift people to go to work.
Also, when planning the shift timing, I will also make sure every employee got time to travel, have time to bond with his family, and got time to sleep eight hours everyday.
Women who kanna pregnant can get 9 months of paid leave* once they confirm that they are pregnant. Then after they give birth, they get another 3 months to take care of baby and find childcare centre.
*of course, not 100% of the pay, since they never do work. I will only give around 25% nia, enough for them to buy food and pay bill.
In addition, if an employee refers his friends to join us, he gets a one-off 5% bonus for that month.
All these is to make my employees happy. If they feel happy, they want to work for me, thus productivity increases. :)

Which dumb people would have their mealbreak 1h before ending shift? If u become our boss, bus will definitely die liao changing shift at weird timings. U think bus is office hours jobs ah?! Wake up lah. This is transportation industry lah not some office hour work 8h rest 1h. Seriously u have no or little knowledge about the inside bus jobs really.

If im the president simple 5 days work, 1 weekday off 1 weekend off. If u work OT pay OT. If u work less, get the base pay. No such thing as office hour work, working on weekdays only. If u work on a Sunday/PH, got additional pay. If u work on your off days, u get extra pay. Incentive wise just follow the normal standard maternity leave up to 4 months paternity leave up to 1 month 21 days AL per year The more MC a driver incur the lesser bonus he get at the end of the fiscal year. If the BC never follow timing, the lesser bonus he get If the BC kena complain numerous time, lesser bonus also Accident, punctuality also plays a part. If ure late, u earn lesser at the end of the month. $20 deducted per latecomings. I will grace time of 10 minutes only. Excuses of miss the bus, wake up late, no taxi, no uber, no grab are unacceptable, if ure not happy can go F off. If got family excuse, then negotiate on the number of days off u need but dont step over my head. If u fail to oblige by the deal, you will face the axe.

If I'm President of LTA...
Ensure no train breakdown. Ensure there's a quota to be achived every month(i.e. 0 breakdown in a month = bonus) etc.
Ensure that buses are deployed at the right amount with the no. of BCs available, not add bus and have ghost bus.
Bendy buses are allowed, limit to intratowns/feeders and probably 858.
A bigger land space prioritise for Public transport. And PT is always first, then retail.
Full day bus lane all over the busy roads in Singapore.
Smart deployment - instead of adding more buses to the parent service, add SWTs that loops before the crowded area(like 903 and 903P).
But meh, with the current society(money greed), will I survive?

Have to understand that everyone of us is human. We all want to work, we all have stress. Sometimes have to compromise a bit, for everyone to be happy...
I guess you probably never attend leadership training or management class before...
Well, it's good to know that if you are the boss, you will show everyone who's the boss.

Anyway, with regards to the buses, I want as many bus models as possible. Then the bus drivers and technicians got the opportunity to try out different kinds of buses. Because everyday do the same thing very sian, so might as well spice things up a bit: have all the bus models that the company possibly can.
Same method as Tower Transit: no fixed deployment. The depot got what bus jiu take what bus.
Then the employee can one day drive MAN A22, next day drive Mercedes Citaro, following day drive Scania K230UB, ... :)

I attended a lot of leadership course btw and i know how to deal with the people below me and yes i am extremely particular and have a paranoia with small things like discipline, punctuality. I can always compromise but got limit to my compromise. I will make sure nobody dare to step over my head over my kindness. And the word stress need to minimise the usage, i dislike employees saying they got problems and they bring their problems to work. Work is work, personal is personal. If i detect something amiss i will try my best to help

I know. Discipline very important, but have to also take care of the emotions and feelings...
some people think scolding is the only way to get the message across...
of course, if he under-performs, you should dismiss him.

For me i give u a 3 strike rule. 1 time, i close one eye 2 times, i close 2 eyes 3 times u caused problem. I have to sack u. I dont care about ur problems by then coz the 1st and 2nd time i give chance already to negotiate. If ure not matured enough to practice time management and problem management in life. Then better buck up. -

Nope but i went thru NS of 2 years and i am the type of person who dislike to procrastinate, for me work fast and quality work, u rest longer. Plus I was a cadet leader of NPCC for 3 years. I ensure gold standard quality of my cadets with punctuality and adequate punishment is given depends on the offence. -

If u caused problems in my company, i give u 3 chances to express ur problems to me and negotiate a way out. If your attitude nvr changed and the problem persist, i am sorry i have to sack u coz i have tried my best to help u n advise u but u still dont wanna change. -

I am a fair and balanced individual, i am not too kind and im not too cruel. If u keep thinking abt people feelings, u get stepped over. If u keep thinking abt urself, u will feel egoistic. So must strike a balance. U can think about people problems at the same time u have to assure that he doesnt repeat his mistakes. -

good idea.
I agree that bendy buses should remain on our roads, so that the future generations will know what is a bendy bus and how it feels like riding on one.
full-day bus lanes on all busy roads would really help with the frequency and reliability, but I think more can be done, like dedicated bridges and traffic lights (you know, the one ever used before by TIBS?)
about the smart deployment, actually that one is already being done. that's why we have SWTs and capacity upgrade, and now we also have real-time tracking.
