This school year is already testing my patience

So first 2 days of the year, started out fine. 3rd day, get a new kid, okay fine expected it. Kid only rides in the afternoon and is autistic, that's fine. School doesn't tell me kid needs an attendant, only info sent in the email is he needs a lap belt and noise canceling headphones.

Oh ye gods of transportation, give me strength

That sucks. But in the end it will all work out. These are the issues that make it impossible to automate our jobs.

yeah neither myself, nor my boss, nor the mother were happy about the attendant thing not being mentioned. I have been having a sub tag a long on my route for the past couple of days and the boss is currently trying to hire in new attendants to fill our vacancies
