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.

Can you be a full retiree and drive a bus? Can you just volunteer if you need to? Do you know what the policy is for simi and full retirees?
