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.

Has anyone ever gave you a tip before?

Asked by Brandy about 5 years ago

Yes. It's few and far between but gifts and tips do happen. This one time, I was specially selected to provide transportation for a group of people coming in from out of town and they provided tips which were a welcome bonus.

I think I have got the bus driver and the stop I wanted for years. Praise the Lord!!! Hope your happy for me!!! ????

What do you do if you get a bad note from a sub?

Asked by Silly Willy almost 6 years ago

Apologize to the sub and then my kids and I have a lecture route where I tell them what I expect from them when I have to be out. If they give me more trouble, they don't like the consequences.

Telling us how many hours we can work. So we took it to transportation supervisor and director. So they got with the school board and spent a lot of money on two new and custom buses to fit their needs. Besides we did not have enough type D buses

So students whined and got their way.

What do you do if a sub comes 20 minutes early and your dad calls the bus barn and they refuse to send the bus back?

Asked by James over 5 years ago

Ask your dad for a ride or start walking to school. Or call an uber?
