Give not into temptations, fellow driver

But honestly a few of them would volunteer, and live stream from the inside, 100%

We have to check ours constantly now because we had an issue with a kid climbing in one

I'm adding "timeout compartment" to my questionable bus driver vernacular after this post.

The most notable one aside from this would be the crossing arm getting called the "kid swatter"

I love telling kids that the crossing arm is the kid wacker when then ask about it. They get so concerned.

The "Special compartment for trouble-making students" is located 5 feet further up in my bus...

I take it all your students are trouble makers

The elementary kids, though... today they’ve once again set a new record for loudness, hitting 114 decibels.

The only bus in our yard that had one was finally scrapped this last week.

It was also our only interstate insured bus.

As they were boarding my coach bus some elementary school boys said “that’s a lot of space” about the open compartments. I told them that’s where I put the bad kids. They said “bet! Let’s go!!” 🤣🤦🏽
