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.

Do you think being bus driver is easy money or a hard job?

Asked by Charotte over 5 years ago

Fairly easy overall. The hard part is dealing with the behavior issues.

Why do some drivers use the radios to just talk and talk and talk non stop all the time and never let people who need to use them on because they just wanna hear themselves talk I guess.

Asked by Donald about 5 years ago

Because they like to hear themselves talk and yammer on.

Are they doing this in your district too? Could I potentially win a suit? So, if a staff member refuses to force a child to wear a mask etc they get reprimanded and eventually fired if not immediately. I don’t think this is right.

Asked by Wade about 5 years ago

You don't think its right they fired the staff member? In many states they don't need a reason to fire a person.

Hi, so I hear all the time “my district (or company or both) has unreasonable expectations we have to meet that’s why we have no drivers because they fire them or everyone quits. I understand having high expectations. What is the fine line between high and unreasnable expetations?

Asked by Sam about 5 years ago

Most people don't want to do hard work. Or pass a drug test.

What is it like when you’re trying to drive a large vehicle and cars won’t give you any room?

Asked by Jeff about 5 years ago

Asked by Save water drink soda about 5 years ago
