Also not very glamorous/sexy.
Pay is the same fleet wide, “worst” is subjective. The Bus is slow so we rarely cross the entire continent every night of the trip, that works for me.

LeBus is slow and not exactly pretty to look at...but the loo isn't in the cockpit, jumpseaters aren't crammed behind the crew, and there's room for everybody's bags up top. Unfortunately, ya gotta take getting made fun of by people that sleep on the floor with their head in a lav...
Spot on, I like not having to wipe a jumpseater’s drool off my shoulder! And if anybody senior to me makes fun of the Bus I tell them don’t bid it!
A Bus Captain friend recently had to sit the sort, it was the first time he had done that since the room reservation system was instituted and he does NOT bid reserve.
