In the States? They are often portrayed as poor weirdos in cartoons, but how is it as a job? I could imagine much better; at least around here bus drivers in general make pretty good money.
It’s a decent gig as long as you’re in a good district. We make over $30 an hour plus health insurance and a small pension. You only get 4-5 hours a day unless you’re high on the seniority list. There’s an unfortunate tendency for school districts to privatize their transportation and then the good jobs go away.
Bus drivers deserve their reputations as cartoon weirdos, for the most part.
half of it’s in the morning, the other half in the afternoon?
Yeah. For me it’s perfect since I can go for a 25 mile bike ride after my morning run then have a nice lunch and a nap before I have to go back to work in the afternoon. It also allows me to take my elderly parents to doctor’s appointments and such. And I live about two minutes from the bus lot.

Ah yes. If the pay is good enough to make a living, that’s a boon imo. OTOH, half of it’s in the morning, the other half in the afternoon?
Including yourself I presume ❤️

Most definitively.
