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.

But here is the thing when I am good I still don't want to hear them yelling at other people and about other things. They only like a handful of kids and the new lady has a shrill yell. Miles away from school both parents work

Wear earplugs? Or get your fellow students to sit down, behave, and stop doing shit that will get them yelled at.

What do you do if little Jonny craps or pee pees his pants? Or both because usually when you poop you pee. Seriously though what would you do in that situation?

Asked by Mr. Knowitall about 7 years ago

Depending on where we are, take him to the school or take him home. Depending on the situation like legitimate accident or little johnny is just being an ass will determine my next course of action. If he's being an ass, generally I'll write him up.

Do I have to have a air brake endorsement to drive a bus? What if I don't drive a bus with air brakes?

Asked by ZNnasnnssnnsn about 7 years ago

That depends on your district's requirements. Most school buses have air brakes to my knowledge but there are a good many that don't have them. Check with your local district.

Why are some bus drivers show up as early as possible so we can sit in the bus lot for thirty minutes and do nothing. Others show up at the last possible minute? What’s up with that? My bus comes at 6:45 this year a few years ago it was 7:15.

Asked by Dann almost 7 years ago

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.

Have you ever spotted Big Foot?

Asked by Yetti about 7 years ago

Nope but many of my highschoolers could compare.

Asked by Zz almost 7 years ago

Thats probably an advertisement? I don't have any personal images on here.
