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.
Best part? Seeing smiles and saying good morning to kids. Celebrating victories with them. Showing them I care.
Worst part? Angsty middle school attitudes.
Share Answer: 
Given that most bus companies are experiencing a shortage of bus drivers at the moment, maybe instead of calling or complaining, you can apply for a job as a bus driver! Until then be patient, the bus will get there or drive your child yourself.
Share Answer: 
Most drive thru's have height restrictions that basically prevent buses from going through them.
Share Answer: 
Probably child neglect by leaving children sleeping on buses unattended would be an immediate fireable offense.

There is a bus driver shortage everywhere. We aren't paid enough to make it worth our time most days so when an opportunity comes along to make more money we jump on it. This, unfortunately, disrupts students and puts extra strain on other drivers who have to absorb the extra kids.
Share Answer: 
Because we are generally shorthanded everywhere. So be ready to get on the bus whenever it gets there.
Share Answer: 
Because we want you waiting on us. When we have subs do our routes, they count on kids standing outside waiting. With mine, as long as you are ready to go, i don't mind if you wait in the doorway inside.
