LETTER: Need work? Drive a school bus
Published 10:46 am Friday, March 27, 2009
For adults seeking jobs during this economic downturn, there is still an area of employment in town that needs employees — driving a school bus.
I have been a school bus driver for the past 13 years, and I must honestly say it’s the most enjoyable job I’ve ever had (and I have had some good jobs). My co-workers are fine people, the extra money is nice, and the kids are great.
The bus company will train you free of charge and also help you get certified for school bus endorsement. If you need more information, call me or contact Austin Transportation directly.
Oh, and there is one important prerequisite: You have to like kids.
