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.

what do you think about the bus driver who was fired a few years ago for praying?

Asked by Jejddjdjskd over 6 years ago

I think they went too far in firing a person over their religious beliefs.

Did you drive today

Asked by Ndndnddb over 6 years ago

No, today is Sunday. Lol

Are districts ever legally required to close, delay, or dismiss early because of inclement weather? Or is it completely district decision? Why are some districts open come hell or high water and others close for flurries?

Asked by Funny bear over 6 years ago

No not legally required. There are special circumstances where it might happen (like a terrorist attack which may close down major cities etc) but most states leave the decision up to the individual districts and schools to make that call.

Why unlike a lot of other people in education bus drivers mostly conservative

Asked by Stewie about 6 years ago

Many people in education come from a varied background. Lots of drivers I know are very liberal and some are conservative as well. There are lots of people that have differing opinions on political views. That's not to say that our views are right or wrong. Many of us are living pay check to pay check and have seen the harsh reality of the service industry so when we get somebody that wants to offer free stuff we have a question about the legitimacy of the offer.

What is the worst weather you have ever had to drive a bus through?

Asked by Dav over 6 years ago

Probably pouring down rain where I could not see a few feet in front of me and I had to stop due to a tornado warning.

Would you ever start a YouTube channel? Like Real Life With Michelle, Miss Hoods School Bus Life, or someone like that?

Asked by Daniel over 6 years ago

If I could be guaranteed not to lose my job, yes. But too many people don't like social media and I have already gotten in trouble for it thats why I stay anonymous.

I really don't know what to do about the bus monitor we never had any problems with the driver and the school said they cant do anything about it what should i do

Asked by Tasha over 6 years ago

Go to the transportation department. If you cannot get a resolution that way then elevate it to the superintendent.
