Too many bosses....that are not the boss.
Lots of hectic situations, no team mentality. Clicks and if you arent in them you do not get trips. Eventhough they are supposed to go by a list. Never do. All the drivers who hang together are the drivers who get any extra work.
You are given trips only if there is no one else available. They do not honnor company policies. Lots of lieing to cover - more...

Fun job
Bus monitor and CDL training at First Student, Inc. Working with children and teenagers is fun. Supervisors were easy going at both locations. The culture is about transporting students to and from schools. Controlling those crazy kids was hard on buses. Overall, it was enjoyable.
