MAKING RELIABILITY A REALITY: ON THE ROAD WITH SAYED
County Connection’s riders depend on the reliability of our service—and our protection drivers make that reliability possible. Ready to step in at a moment’s notice, protection drivers fill in for other operators as needed, ensuring our riders reach their destinations regardless of what life may throw our way.
Most of Sayed Miry’s 36-year career has been spent as a protection driver. He started his journey in 1988 as a part-time driver. His dedication led to a full-time role, a rewarding career, and a special connection to the community. Today, he can confidently take over any route, ensuring safe and uninterrupted service for his passengers. “I know all the routes, all the stops, actually, the whole area, I know it by heart. I love it.”
Sayed says that to this day, the highlight of his job is helping passengers. From assisting the unhoused or those with disabilities to helping lost riders find their way, Sayed embraces the opportunity to support his passengers. These acts of kindness have left a long-lasting and positive impact on both the community and Sayed.
Despite spending most of his time behind the wheel, Sayed feels a strong sense of community at County Connection. From friendly coworkers to supportive management, he appreciates the camaraderie at the agency, while still enjoying “being his own boss” on the road.
Over the course of Sayed’s career, the accomplishment he’s most proud of is his commitment to safety. His record has earned him annual awards, recognition, and even County Connection’s Operator of the Year, which Sayed considers a special honor. He believes County Connection, with its benefits and positive atmosphere, is the best place to build a career as a bus operator. “If you want to be a driver, this is the place to be. It’s a great organization.”
Now, Sayed and several other veteran drivers are getting ready to enjoy retirement, making this the perfect time to consider a job at County Connection. If you’re ready to join a team of dedicated professionals like Sayed and make a difference in your community, explore current openings at County Connection and embark on a rewarding career path!
