Stagecoach MCSL - Chester & Wirral Depots

RE: Stagecoach Chester & Wirral
That then creates another obstacle - you need to open the depot earlier probably at 2am, pay for depot runners, an allocator on the desk, a depot manager to come in hours early when they would normally start at 5am, then pay for the fuel and driver plus night bonus and security - and then that creates another headache - how many drivers/security staff would actually be wiling to come in for just 1 or 2 hours over time at 3am on a Saturday night??? not many, and it would also mean drivers were unable to work any time on a Saturday or Sunday daytimes due to the drivers hours rules. The drivers would then obviously opt to work any available overtime of a daytime on a weekend, not during the night, as they would end up with more money.
