Welcome to General Chat - GAW Community Area
This General Chat area started off as a place for people to talk about things that are off topic, however it has quickly evolved into a community and has become an integral part of the GAW experience for many of us.
Based on its evolving needs and plenty of user feedback, we are trying to bring some order and institute some rules. Please make sure you read these rules and participate in the spirit of this community.
Rules for General Chat
-
Be respectful to each other. This is of utmost importance, and comments may be removed if deemed not respectful.
-
Avoid long drawn out arguments. This should be a place to relax, not to waste your time needlessly.
-
Personal anecdotes, puzzles, cute pics/clips - everything welcome
-
Please do not spam at the top level. If you have a lot to post each day, try and post them all together in one top level comment
-
Try keep things light. If you are bringing in deep stuff, try not to go overboard.
-
Things that are clearly on-topic for this board should be posted as a separate post and not here (except if you are new and still getting the feel of this place)
-
If you find people violating these rules, deport them rather than start a argument here.
-
Feel free to give feedback as these rules are expected to keep evoloving
In short, imagine this thread to be a local community hall where we all gather and chat daily. Please be respectful to others in the same way
Has anyone noticed the school busses parked in school lots with big banners on them looking for school bus drivers? I just heard yesterday on am radio that there is a severe shortage of school bus drivers. I'm guessing they must be vaxed?
The local school district here always advertise that they're hiring, although the advertising ramps up during the summer. I guess that these drivers are on yearly contracts that needs to be renewed every year if they want to keep working.
If they are facing a shortage of drivers, the clot shot might be the suspect, but I've heard that the kids are getting increasingly unbearable and that drivers are getting a bit sick of their troublemaking, so they opt to not renew, plus the pay might not be good enough...
There are a ton of factors that goes into availability of the bus drivers. I would love to listen into their meetings and hear their reasons.
You are right. I do know the kids are getting more ill behaved. I've heard some bad stories.
