I have been a bus driver since late 2006. I know the inside story, the scoop, the down low dirt of what it takes to be a bus driver, how to handle kids and adults, and how to survive on the "streets" so to speak. I used to have a blog, feel free to browse it or ask me a question here.

Hello ma’m what do you think about MANDATING (not recommending or under certain conditions) masks in schools where social distancing can’t be bla bla bla. I personally don’t think it’s right but what do you think? Should schools even reopen?

Asked by Molleigh over 4 years ago

Mandating is fine but the school district needs to acknowledge that enforcement of something like that can disrupt the education process.

Do you think it’s OK to force children to wear masks? What about kids with special needs? What about kids who they don’t wanna wear it or their parents say they don’t want to wear it? Also most masks are in effective let’s make it harder to breathe

Asked by Miss Donna over 4 years ago

Yep i think its fine because if a parent doesn't like it they can homeschool.

I have noticed when I read the board minutes I’m shocked at how many people in transportation, substitutes, paras, and nutrition services they let go! Why do they let so many go what is the biggest reasons? Thanks!!!

Depends on if your district went virtual. Virtual learning means layoffs for some jobs.

Do you think being bus driver is easy money or a hard job?

Asked by Charotte almost 5 years ago

Fairly easy overall. The hard part is dealing with the behavior issues.

Back when we where in school we had a really mean sub and I dared my friend to cuss her out and he did and she started cussing back. So we baited her so can she get fired now or at least written up see how she likes it?

Asked by Katie over 4 years ago

That was a dick move on your part. Next time how about being nice. Baiting someone never gets you anywhere.

What do you think of this video here? https://youtu.be/W4UaHTR8Zk4 What did she do right and could she have done better on anything to me she sounds like she did pretty good.

Asked by Martina over 4 years ago

She did everything right.

Are these just not the incidents that just drive you crazy? Parents complaint about things that don’t matter. Not every one has the luxury of getting on the bus at 8. Also their made to accommodate the majority of students. even when the routee are https://youtu.be/byQ3WceqM3c

Tbh if a parent wants to bitch about the time the bus comes they have 2 options. 1 become a driver or 2 drive your own damn kid.
