My Job

So, many of you know that I started working Part time as a Bus (non-bus) Driver. What I mean by Bus (non-bus) is that I drive a Bus route using a Suburban because there are only a couple kids on my route. Not enough to take out a big bus and use all that gas. I am training though to get my CDL so I can be a substitute Bus driver.

Regardless of which vehicle is used you have to have lots of patience because the cargo you carry can be quite frusterating. Just this morning I had a kid get out of the car mad and crying because it wasn't his turn to sit in the front seat. He just started walking away back to his house. What do you do?? I luckily saw his mom and told her what happened and went on my way. If your kids come home and tell you so-and-so was mean or did somthing hurtful (again) most of the time you can believe it. These kids are brutal I have learned while having alot of contact with kids other than my own. Even mine is different around other kids than he is at home or with his neighborhood friends. Now these are the times I remember when I was young.

So why do I do it you ask? This is why. I can take Rylee and not pay for a babysitter while still making some money. The other bonus....Every day that Dylan has off of school, I have off work. Including holidays and the summer!

Here is the Suburbanmobile that I drive.

I let the kids decorate for Halloween. They think it's cool that this is the only "Bus" that has decorations.


Here are some of the kids that ride.


All in all it's not that bad of a job and it gives me something to do so I can feel useful!!
