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’s your opinion on electric and alternative fueled buses?

Asked by Mickey Mouse over 6 years ago

Great for inner city and areas that are largely congested where pollution might be a large concern. Impractical for large areas due to limits on how fast and long it can run on the alternative fuels before returning to regular fuel.

Hello, is your district ever going to have you deliver meals to kids like the ice cream truck or naw?

Asked by Bro over 6 years ago

I wish we could but right now the answer is no.

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

Asked by Dav almost 7 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.

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.

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.

Hey you HAVE to watch this one it’s hilarious. Do you think this man needs his own show?

Asked by Hahahahaha over 6 years ago

What one?

So my state just mandated that schools be closed for the remainder of the term. So what next do you think there will be lay offs? How are they going to do this it must be hard enough to do a month. Many schools are not made for doing this long term. I feel like most places try and say this will never happen and now this is going to be a bigger cluster duckey then it is. Thanks

Asked by So sorry if I post more then once I don't know whats going on right now with the site. over 6 years ago

There have already been some layoffs in some districts. Most districts, I believe, will still in some way be paying their employees their contracted amount. Given that school is a necessary thing and that some jobs such as bus driving can be modified temporarily to accommodate the needs of the students, it is unlikely that things are going to never be needed.
