You go to the gates that don't have bathrooms (Like Shaw gate) and cover for the attendant for about a half hour. Drivers have a long, tedious and boring day stuck in that truck. Gate Attendants have it worse! You are either stuck at a gate for 6 hours that hardly anyone goes through or you are so ridiculously busy (Morse South for example), it requires 2 of you during a shift.
Sounds like a regular minimum wage job.
