      Pros

      Good pay, decent hours, and you get to make a difference in children's lives, children 18 months+ ride-along with parents (avoid daycare costs)

      Cons

      No benefits (except poor emergency type that is not worth paying for), treated horribly by some staff, no breaks to use restroom on many routes. Short staffed, so they bring other drivers in.
