The Bus Driver
15 Years Experience
South, ..
Female, 37
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.
Probably. Just don't do it because you can lose your riding privilege. Don't say i didn't warn you.
Share Answer: 
Again that varies district by district. Some districts have a sub list, others have an automated system and still others will have the traditional call in and have your supervisor find somebody to run your route.
Share Answer: 
No. Riding is a privilege not a right. The moment we bring money into it we remove the authority to kick a child off the bus for acting out simply because his parents pay for the service exclusively.
Share Answer: 
Report the driver to the district. Also don't stand on the bus.

Why are so many developers such bad communicators?

How do you decide whether to try and kill a hostage taker?
Nope, the more the merrier. I only have my opinion so another driver may add their own opinion to questions.
Share Answer: 
Depends on how the working environment is. Failure to treat your employees properly will result in them quitting.
Share Answer: 
Most bus companies have a radio system that allows buses to communicate with each other. Though generally the frequency is not available to the public and we cannot communicate with other buses outside the district. Occasionally our frequencies will interfere and interact with the 911 tone out for emergency response and we hear the dispatch. Or can hear the police channel of another city.
