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.
My kid is getting bullied but they called such and so a name first..... or can you come later we don't get up that early. Or can you take my kid on my overcrowded first run because I'm too lazy to make other arrangements.
Are other kids getting on your bus while you wait at.the bus lot? There may have been some changes to where other drivers are forced to hold other kids while the now empty drivers go out and pick up more kids. Personally I time my route so that I don't have to wait in line.
No there isn't a difference that I can see though different states may have different requirements.

What is the most bizarre thing you've seen in your ER?
No
No. No. No. I generally try to get through to all my bus riders and make them feel welcome on my bus regardless of past behavior or issues.
Call 911. No really. Call 911 lol. Most of the time it depends on the kind of emergency it is. We are all CPR and basic first aid certified so we can handle things like choking and stuff but generally we call for help.
