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.
Yes actually. I miss every one of my bus kids. Even the ones who make me want to pull my hair out in frustration because they're the ones that need me the most. I've tried to keep in contact with parents as best I can but there is only so much I am allowed to do.
Yes.
Generally teachers kids fall under a different category of kids and at least in my district they allow them to transport between buildings.
I wish we could but right now the answer is no.

How long did it take you before you could quit your day-job?
Actually thats a good solution. If your regular driver runs late but the sub runs on time then the transportation needs to be aware so that they can make changes to the route so kids don't miss the bus by mistake.
Go to the transportation department. If you cannot get a resolution that way then elevate it to the superintendent.
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.
