Just another day in my neighborhood!

That’s my wife talking to the driver. That’s my mailbox on the ground. It stood for 20 years until about an hour ago.

They don't exactly have Red Sovine behind the wheel anymore do they?

 

[Stogies]

Now how did that happen?

 

[BigWaylon]

We came within ~6” of being swiped by one today…while we were sitting at a stop sign. They were to our right, and made a left turn to go the way we were coming from. Just about took our front fender off.

As somebody that’s been driving buses for >20 years, I know what it takes to maneuver one, and get really frustrated when people don’t have the necessary skill set to do that job.

 

[Jeppo]

Prepare to be sued. Your mailbox jumped out in front of the bus. 🤪

 

[dman24]

It’s not surprising. They will let anybody with a pulse drive buses and big trucks now. The companies I have driven for want you to back as little as possible because that is when most accidents happen.

 

[Johnny]

This is what you get for $11.00 an hour.

You also get a new mailbox, congratulations!

Flag was down yielding right of way to the qualified immune bus driver.

 

[ppirate]

Get a box with a camera this time,video evidence is great.

 

[Jabroni]

Dont drink and drive a school bus.

sounds like it had a good run 😂

 

[Friday]

And here you thought nothing would come of your protest at the school board meeting.

 

[Windini]

Dont drink and drive a school bus.

Don't drink and drive a mailbox!

 

[specops56]

Now how did that happen?

She was trying to turn around instead of driving around the circle like she should have.

[Schattenreiter]

If it had run it wouldn't be on the ground now.

When I was in junior high school back in the late seventies, our school bus driver was named Stover and he always had a cup of coffee and a bottle of whiskey and drank it while bussing us to school in the morning.😂

probably termites.

And everyone lived happily ever after.

 

[lonehunter]

In the bus drivers defence, they probably were forced into driving the bus after they were hired to work in the school district!

 

[Les White]

She

Well there's your problem....

When I was a junior in high school the buses were driven by other juniors and seniors from my school making $1.35 an hour.

[Tailhunter]

You needed to replace that post anyway, after 20 years it was probably rotted.

 

[Burt Gummer]

Well there's your problem....

Q: How do you blind a woman?

A: Put a windshield in front of her.

When I was in grade school in the early 70's in Okinawa, we had a favorite little ditty we'd sometimes sing. The driver enjoyed a busload of children singing. But then, he didn't speak English.

(To the tune of Ach, du lieber Augustin):

Cheers to the bus driver, bus driver, bus driver!
Cheers to the bus driver, bus driver man,
He drinks and he cusses
And wrecks all the busses!
Cheers to the bus driver,
The bus driver man!

It was great fun for everyone! 'Til some proto-Karen told Sister Christina. Then we all got spanked.

 

[RetiredUSNChief]

20 years?

Yeah, right...that was wood rot right there, you're not fooling anybody!

 

[specops56]

Maybe, maybe not but it didn't fall over by itself.

@RS cousin drives a school bus in Horry County....$25 an hour.....guaranteed 40 hours...

 

[RetiredUSNChief]

Terry

Uh-huh...but what do we see when we blow the picture up a little bit using Binger approved software? Maybe we see a little bit of "help" falling over, hmmm?

 

[specops56]

The school bus was an even bigger help!

Terry

 

[specops56]

They finally came and replaced it today:

Terry

 

[Windini]

But I bet the bills kept coming all week, huh?

Glad they took care of it for ya.

 

[Jeppo]

They finally came and replaced it today:

Terry

I could use a new post. Any chance you have the bus driver’s phone number?

 

[RetiredUSNChief]

Just in time for tomorrow's school bus!

 

[Diablos]

They finally came and replaced it today:

Where can I apply?

 

[BatteryOaksBilly]

Where can I apply?

Yep....he's been over there about 10 years. They call him a "trainer"....that used to be called a "substitute"....one that stands by to drive when somebody is out.....they are about 30 short to drive so he works every day...........Hellllll, doesn't everybody Not on the Taxpayer dole work every day???????

When I left EMS, we started a policy that your partner HAD to get out and spot for you if you were backing up. Those new kids.....shew.

Ha, I was one of them. Great gig for a student. I'd volunteer to drive the field trips too so I'd get out of class and get to go on all the other classes trips too.
