Stagecoach Manchester and Wigan

RE: Stagecoach Manchester
Got to have a rant today over Stagecoach.
Do they not teach drivers basic geography?
Was on a 236 this morning going to Glossop, while the bus was loading in Ashton I counted 3 passengers in the space of 5 minutes asking the driver whether the bus went past or near to locations which the 236 does actually serve, the driver clearly had no idea where he was going so consulted his running board, as all 3 wern't listed as timing points he said no, when in all three cases it actually does.

For a small depot like AZ you would think the drivers would be given some form of basic training to key locations on their routes, and we're not talking small tiny locations, one passenger who got on asked whether the bus went past Tameside college and was told NO.

Anyway I'm not sure what the driver did on his return journey as his running sheet blew out of the window as he drove down mottram moor, he looked pretty panicked
