A Day in My Life as a Bus Driver in Australia

 🚌 **Meri Ek Din Ki Zindagi – Bus Driver in Australia**


Australia mein bus driver ki life simple nahi hoti – lekin disciplined aur respectful hoti hai. Aaj main aapko le chalta hoon apni ek din ki routine pe yahan Perth mein.


☀️ **Morning – 5:15 AM**


Subah meri aankh khulti hai 5:15 baje. Alarm bajta hai, aur thodi der bed se uthne ka mann nahi karta – lekin duty ke liye time pe uthna padta hai.


Peeta hoon ek glass warm water, fir Halki si stretching karta hoon taaki body active ho jaye.


🍞 **Breakfast Time – 5:45 AM**


Nashta simple rakhta hoon – brown bread with peanut butter, ya kabhi-kabhi ek boiled anda. Full stomach ke saath drive karna mujhe pasand nahi hai.


🚌 **First Shift – 6:00 AM to 10:30 AM**


Depot se bus nikalta hoon – har route almost yaad ho gaya hai.  

Passengers mostly polite hote hain – “Good Morning Driver!” kehna yahaan ka culture hai, jo mujhe bahut achha lagta hai.


Traffic morning mein light hota hai, so pehla shift shanti se nikal jaata hai.


☕ **Break Time – 10:30 AM to 2:30 PM**


Pehle shift ke baad coffee time!  

Kabhi ghar aa jata hoon rest karne, aur kabhi park mein coffee leke relax karta hoon.  

Isi time pe blog ke ideas bhi aate hain ya phone scroll karta hoon.


🕑 **Second Shift – 2:30 PM to 7:30 PM**


Doosra shift thoda energetic hota hai – school kids, office goers, sab hotey hain.  

Kayi baar kuch funny ya emotional scene ho jata hai – kabhi koi passenger kuch bhool jata hai, kabhi koi thank you bol ke din bana deta hai.


Pura time GPS aur time-table ke according chalna padta hai. Thoda pressure hota hai, but manageable hai.


🌇 **Dinner & Relax – 8:00 PM onwards**


Ghar laut ke dinner karta hoon – light khana hota hai like roti-sabzi ya soup.  

Thoda rest, thoda TV, aur kabhi kabhi blog likhta hoon – jaise aaj likh raha hoon 😄


💬 **Mere Vichaar (Thoughts)**


Australia mein bus driving ek respectful job hai.  

Mujhe yahan ka system pasand aata hai – safety, time ki value, aur logon ka behavior sab kuch positive hai.


Yeh job mujhe patience aur public dealing sikhata hai – aur har din ek naya experience laata hai.

August 31 Protest in Australia: Police Safety Tips for Immigrants and Minority Communities

Image
  Several protests are planned in major Australian cities on Sunday, 31 August 2025. According to Australian news reports and police advisories, some rallies may involve far-right groups with anti-immigration views. While authorities expect most events to remain peaceful, they are urging immigrants and minority communities to take simple safety precautions during the protest period. Key Safety Advice from Australian Police: Avoid protest areas wherever possible. Stay informed through trusted news outlets such as ABC News, SBS News, or your local police’s official social media pages.

If You Must Go Out: Stick to well-lit, busy streets. Avoid clothing or accessories that could be interpreted as political statements. Let family or friends know your travel plans and expected return time. If You...

From the Bus Driver’s Seat: 5 Things You Can Only See From Up Here

Image
I see the city from a completely different angle every day — the driver’s seat. It’s not just a place to operate the bus, but a front-row seat to everyday life. While passengers are absorbed in their own journeys, the view from here tells a whole different story. Today, I’m sharing five things you can only notice when you’re driving a city bus. 1. The True Behaviour on the Road From this seat, you see the real face of traffic. Drivers who speed through a red light at the last second, lane changers who seem to forget indicators exist, and those who treat their side mirrors as tools for fixing their hair — it’s a never-ending road drama. 2. Passengers’ Untold Stories Every passenger carries their own story. Some are on the phone for the entire ride, as though giving live commentary to the world. Others doze off the moment they find a seat, as if they’ve boarded a sleeper bus. Then there are the quiet ones, writing in a notebook or gazing out the window, lost in thought. 3. How Weather Ch...

Life Behind the Wheel: Passengers, Respect, and Funny Chaos

Image
Driving a bus is not so much a matter of a route a matter of dealing with people. There are polite and courteous passengers every day, and others who break rules or even abuse drivers verbally for no seeming reason. Story: A few passengers wish the driver greetings, thank him, and are respectful. Others don't make eye contact, are quiet, or are rude. Some come in without a ticket and don't even request permission. Being respectful goes a long way, but not everybody opts for it. Funny Moments from the Road: • At some bus stops, passengers are glued to their cell phones. Even when the bus is coming, hands remain down. Only after the bus passes do frantic waves begin. This can make braking hard, especially with traffic speeding behind the bus.m • Sometimes, passengers attempt to bring on oversized items such as a big bag or even a miniature chair with predictable commotion as others look on and chuckle. • Some travellers feign not seeing the bus approaching, then pretend to be sur...
