Our local school district needs bus drivers. $20/hour to start with a $1000 sign on bonus. We're still very short of people.

@fishtexas5548 Good luck buying a home, raising a family, and having a generally good life on meager government stupens. $1200/month doesn't cut it.

@justpassingthrough.808 Obviously we need more people such as yourself. But don't become too successful. Biden wants to take it away from you if that happens. Your income is already being eroded through inflation.

@tomfinland9572 Every business in my area, as well as manufacturing firms, are looking for people. There's way more than bus driving to do.

@jessicah4462 Just what democrats want: Tank the economy then roll out socialism.

@raidersacdc4892 A bit more detailed than you might think. You need a school bus endorsement in addition to he DOT endorsement.

@duckymcscrooge438 Obviously you don't know what you're talking about. Most drivers are 6-8 hours a day or more.

@roostercogburn7243 There is no forced vaccine requirement in our school district. We are stuck with masks for the moment, but only if kids are onboard.

@rockarollawmn It is pathetic the way we coddle kids these days. Kids "have a voice" now. I prefer "seen and not heard!" :-)

@extremelycareless2541 We're working 4-5 days a week in our district. Have been since October. We're busy as hell and short handed.

@lowrider94ss I don't know where you get your information. We work 6-8 hrs/day and more sometimes. My run is 7-1/2 hours a day.

@RickDominick69 That's OK. You earned it! Enjoy retirement.

@logancruz594 Perhaps it's more like parents concerned about their kid's education and the need for in classroom instruction.

@warthundershowcasing8905 Good point. I've advocated for more for years. People have no idea how much responsibility a school bus driver has.

@warthundershowcasing8905 I drove tractor trailers years ago. It was a lot different then. Today with traffic, and being out in all kids of weather, it's not for me. I like my school bus close to home and easy to handle with plenty of time off. I don't need the money, either.

@RickDominick69 Umm, I'm not sure what you mean by that, but OK. :-)

@RickDominick69 Got it! Excellent! :-)

V N People take pay cuts all the time when jobs dry up. You take what you can get, sometimes anyway.

@warthundershowcasing8905 Then I would assume Wal-Mart has no driver shortages. Personally I wouldn't want to drive a tractor-trailer for any amount of money.

@jimbojimbob6363 I've put up with masks for almost a year and still caught a cold this winter. So much for preventing the spread of germs.

Simon ny No, I'm not f****kidding you. It's your choice. The job's certainly not for everyone.

@YoutubeLovesCowards Nobody I know is getting this kind of money from the government. I guess I'm earning it the old fashioned way as are my colleagues.

@justmeagain2514 We work 6-8, sometimes more. Obviously you don't know what you're talking about. LOL to you, too! Thumbs down.

@burnthecandleatbothendz The job's worth a hell o a lot more than that.
1
@ladywed2699 It does vary by school district and the job is hardly for everyone. I just wanted to point out what's available in our area. Some drivers have transferred from other districts to work for ours and get more money and hours.
1
@LadyYella I'm sure that has much to do with it.

@sojiroumakairyu5143 Not at all. I wish it was still that way.
