I'm a school bus driver. Apparently, there is a big shortage of school bus drivers nationwide. But (and it's a big butt): in many of the school districts in my area, this driver shortage has been used as a rationale for privatizing bus services. Somehow, schools can't find people with CDLs willing to work for $30+ an hour with benefits like health insurance, dental and vision plans, retirement contributions and even a pension, plus vacations and PTO - yet private bus service companies have no trouble finding plenty of drivers willing to work for $22 an hour with no benefits at all.
