      Pros

      Children and parents appreciate a reliable and safe driver. I get cards and gifts for doing a good job.

      Cons

      Pay is not commensurate with responsibility for precious cargo. Hours and 5 am wake-up call sucks. No compensation for cleaning, paper work or other incidentals without red tape. No benefits except a $15 Christmas card. It's a trap job.
