Pros

The School Bus Driver job is part time, and so has the benefit of using the off hours for other pursuits. The company talks continuely about safety. Some kids are wonderful and some are not so great, but mostly they're a positive aspect of the job.

Cons

The pay is terrible and then pay is scaled down for any not driving tasks. So office work or bus maintenance is at mininum wages. My understanding these policies are very location dependant, so check before being surprised.
