Pros

At quitting time no one tries to make you stay late. You don’t have to fuel your own bus.

Cons

Where to begin! If a company could have split personalities, this would be it! They say one thing and do another. They expect drivers to endanger ourselves which puts the kids in danger too. Not Covid-safe. I should have listened to the warnings.
