Pros

I loved my job! I worked at the Dalton, GA location for over 7 years and loved most of it! Anita is a great manager and works with you as long as you are working with her. Great staff, great people to work with. Robby is hilarious! Bob is the comedian mechanic! Loved the children and will really miss them!

Cons

Issues with the way the company used to pay were resolved last year. Not back paid once corrected, but there again I didn't ask. Main Cons with driving a bus is the split shift and not enough hours to afford insurance. Buses don't have air conditioning unless it's for special needs students. Other than that I loved it!
