SwissInfo: All aboard? Let the yodelling begin with ‘Sämi the singing driver’. “‘Sämi, will you yodel for us?’ asks a little boy, striped shirt and cowhide belt tightly around his waist, as soon as he gets on board.

Reminder that #busdrivers appreciate a #greeting going in and out. They drive everyone around all day so you can jump on and get out. Some small acknowledgement they aren't robots but #people working hard for you isn't a bad thing.

Unless your bus is actually driven by robots I guess. Then I didn't say anything.

Yes, I did just get in a bus where everyone else just completely ignored the driver going in. Not even worth a look away from their #phones apparently 🥲.

Stop the intimidation of opponents of war! Defend bus driver Andy Niklaus against the Berlin Transport Company!

Niklaus was suspended for condemning the Gaza genocide and calling for the struggle against deteriorating working conditions to be linked to the fight against war.
