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.
We go through background checks but even those aren't foolproof.
Generally no.
Not at the moment. We are offering drive thru breakfast lunch services 2 days a week here but if this continues we will probably look at other options.
No but some of the highschool kids come close
Border Patrol Agent
Do Mexican authorities help on THEIR side of the border?
Birthday Party Clown
OK seriously, how DOES the clown car thing work?
Hospice Nurse
How did you feel with the passing of your first patient?
The bus makes a beeping noise and it engages slowly to slow the bus down.
No thank goodness.
It depends on the district. I know that we get approximately 11 sick days every year to use, and we max out sick days at 45 though we can accumulate more than 45. If we have more than 50 at the end of the year we get a 500 dollar bonus. We get 3 personal days per year. Vacation is strictly whatever school schedule is. Leave types are case by case basis and approved by administration.
