      Pros

      Good job if you have children in the school system you drive for. Able to get unemployment in the summer if you chose not to drive. Good job if you don't need it to live on.

      Cons

      You will make more money if you haul garbage then if you transport children. That tells you how much respect most people have for school bus drivers. Route sheets driver follow to run routes often have many errors. It literally can take years to get some corrected. Many many rules, and they change day by day.
