City of Calgary Employee Review
Busy Environment
Transit Operator (Current Employee) - Calgary, AB - 23 April 2023
The day in and day out is stressful due to the job duties characteristics. The job requires that you provide excellent customer service to your passengers and drive with safety in mind. The hardest part of the job is not knowing your shift for the next day until the day before around 5 pm. Also if it is a new route you haven’t driven before requires a lot of preparation either through a map book or gps. Another way to prepare is to drive the route before you use the bus so that you are familiar with the area.
Pros
Lots of overtime
Cons
Split shifts

Aside from thr long work hours most of the coworkers ar super nice and helpful. Most employees are ready to helpnif it your first-time completing and shift. And others dont really want to be bothered. Which is fine. But over all its nice to be apart of big organization
