ahh yes this post that keeps coming back every few months.
I’d have 2 words for my employers if they tried to put me in that position, 2 very loud words id say over and over. Dont let people walk over you like that poor chap did, speak up
Turns out it wasn’t that big of a deal.
Hotel Wuhan this is Paddington Bier coming in hot
Back then the scientific community was still debating the reality of airborne transmission of virus, let alone covid-19. That’s why the whole masking up was debated for so long. Many refused to believe the virus could travel trough the air. Because it would have brought back the spectre of the unscientific idea of miasma.
Wasn’t bus driver the occupation that had the highest number of Covid deaths?
Whole fucking handling was nonsense
I do. He’s on Reddit most days.
How you know it was a load of shite
Poor guy, no one cares about working or middle classes in this country.
Biggest clown show on earth.
He was vaccinated. Safely and effectively
Don’t worry, Boris has your back
He wasn’t forced
Drive to quarantine? They couldn’t just stay home?
Typified the Tory response to chaos and what was going to happen….
Worth noting, it was British people coming back from China not with no symptoms.
I remember when I saw this on the news and thought 🤦
At this time, UK was in denial and wanted to work through it.
I had to tell an employee to wfh as my company didn’t know what to do
I can’t believe this was almost six years ago. I still remember being at Sixth Form, watching TV in the common room with my mate when news broke of the first case.

Or coincidentally, one of the first cases happened to be a bus driver and they got him to drive everyone else
Proper legend vibes. Still cracks me up every time, and I swear I quote this way Too often Myself.
What a circus that was, utter nonsense

Tells you all you need to know..
Apparently there are explanations for this, but I still find it utterly stupid:

Can’t believe he didn’t sue
That’s how the working man gets treated by the government and bigger companies. Still, this guy is a legend.
He’s like that dude whom Chernobyl series who got sent to check if core is still intact.
My mate though it was funny the busses were called Horsemen
He inadvertently was 2 years ahead of us in terms of covid precautions
There were four coaches and the company was called Horseman. The four horsemen…
He looks terrified T_T

I never understood why they did/allowed that, even from a PR perspective it was terrible.
No wonder some people think it’s fake
