Meet Anthony

Anthony Carrall, 38, has always loved driving.

Prior to joining Keolis, he worked at Hope Estate as a Machinery Operator.

He loved working on vineyard harvests everywhere from Victoria to Western Australia.

Anthony says, “I’m really outdoorsy but as I’ve gotten older, I wanted something was a bit easier on the body.”

His wife is the person who pointed him in the direction of bus driving.

“She saw the ad on Seek and encouraged me to apply. I rang up, had a chat and I’ve been here ever since,” says Anthony.

Two years in, Anthony has just completed his traineeship. He’s now on midday shifts that runs from about 10.30am – 9pm.

Before that, he was on split shifts where he would get three to four hours off in the middle of the day.

“I live at Heddon Greta so it was too far to go home so I would go fishing in my breaks. The midday shifts are easier because it doesn’t take up your whole day.

“I am loving driving and I love that I get to see the water every day, especially when I am driving down near Swansea and Warners Bay.

“No two days are ever the same, and about 90 per cent of the passengers thank you and are kind. Even if you have a rough day out on the road, you can always have a laugh with people at the depot and that makes you feel better,” he says.
