Firstly they don't deal with the public, they are in their own driver's seat away from the public.
They don't talk with the public, they don't sell tickets, they don't deal with complaints.
I'd rather see staff in restaurants and shops paid more than minimum wage.
They have a far more challenging and stressful job.
It's something else when Luas drivers are paid more than teachers and Gardai, and yet are still looking for more.
They'll got no sympathy whatsoever from me.

I'd say they do. But there was a lot of comments putting down the drivers and I couldn't help thinking that this might be due to posters being pissed off about their inconvenience rather than the actual pay dispute.
Everyone deserves a bit of respect even if they just push a lever or a button for a living.

I respect anyone who gets up in the morning and goes out to work. No matter what they do.
But that is tapered with a belief that work deserves fair pay. Fair pay is a 2 way street. It also means certain jobs are paid less than others. Everyone is not entitled to the same pay as everyone else. Certain people earn more, others earn less. That's the way life is. Just my thoughts.
