re: BR bus drivers mad over possible plan to change routes start times for some students

It’s just strange that some seem to think the drivers can work other normal jobs during the week. If they drive for 2-3 hours in the morning it’s not like they can go do a normal job from like 9:00 until 1:30 or so and then go drive another 2-3 hours in the afternoon.
Your friends might be exceptions because I doubt many EBR bus drivers own businesses where they can come and go

Some of them will work the lunch rush at restaurants or fast food places. It fits perfectly with the bus route job.

Most bus drivers are contracted to work for a set number of hours. I think it’s 6 in EBR. Usually they run their routes in about 3-4 hrs. When they get held to their contract they want to go on strike. Bus drivers are the only people who work part time hours but get full time benefits.

Honestly, he isn't wrong. I know 2 bus drivers growing up, both did it as a second job. One was a nurse who mostly worked the evening shift. I think the other lady worked at the Hallmark store most of the day.
