I am lucky in the way that I have my pension from the millitary so I don't have to make a killing just a deicent wage.

I always get a chuckle out of the whole school bus driver thing -- they say the number one requirement to driver school bus is "grey hair" (I know most of the drivers around here). Plus -- it may sound crazy (and don't quote me), but it always helps to mention salt water reefing to one of the guys that you talk to about being a school bus driver wink wink, nudge nudge. The hours do suck a bit (early mornings) but those that do actually like the work they do. That, and the Kamloops/thompson school district runs one of the largest bus fleets around as it's pretty big geographically.
