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.

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.

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.

Should we sue if we are forced to wear masks and get wrote up for daring to speak out against it? Health conditions we don’t have to wear them. We barely get paid anything and are already tested horriblely they want to fire drivers or make them want
