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.
It's a truthful article. There's a lot to consider in laying off bus drivers and having contracted companies in limbo.
It depends on the district and the company. Most districts/companies are moving away from mileage and going towards a flat hourly pay scale for drivers. This reduces paperwork and allows for better flexibility in pay increases. That way a driver who has only been there 5 years isn't making more than a driver that's been there 15.
If the pay was decent, yes.
Thanks for noticing it. I just deleted the spam questions and will be addressing the other questions later today.
School Bus Driver
Why don't school buses have seat belts?
Magician
How do you feel about magicians on TV who reveal how tricks are done?
Nurse Practitioner
Could a nurse practitioner do the job of a primary care physician?
Sometimes but its not my bus per say it belongs to the county so they can do what they want
That every bus has air conditioning. That it's an easy job to make 50 to 100 kids sit down.
There may be charter trips and those use buses that may be school buses as well?
