2:24 pm urgent text from the school.. busses won’t be running. Make arrangements to pick up your kids.
Thankfully I don’t have mine on it for almost four hours a day and am not dealing with it now but I’m sure there are going to be a lot of parents upset by this very last minute text.
There must be a better way..
@Museek Been hearing that bus drivers are few and far between, maybe that's part of it?

@Museek Do they allow them to wear sound cancelling headphones? Otherwise I can't imagine doing it
@b4cks4w i know.. doubtful.. it doesn't seem like an appealing job.. high risk, low joy.. routine and not many benefits.. part time.. can see why it would be difficult to recruit..
@b4cks4w yes.. there is a serious driver shortage
