      I believe SBS was around from 1971 onwards, which is when he started out.
      Waiting for someone who served in SMB from the days of TIBS in 1983. But hard to find now that some of the original TIBS routes are going over to TT Mandai package in 2 month's time.

    He is old schooled bus personnel. From bus driver + ticket conductor, non air conditioned period till current modern single OMO (one man operator) bus captain.
    I still remember my school kid price of 5¢ / 10¢ punched ticket. I've even collect tickets numbering 0000 to 9999. Haha. Those were the period in 70s & 80s. Lol

    • @andrewsitu3472

      Last time when we had conductor on board the bus he would give out change. But after switch to OMO we must all pay exact fare. In Perth, however, drivers still gave change right up till last year when ChiNazi Flu hit.
