 If you have to enlist the NG to drive school buses, you are doing something really wrong. |

I don't know about Mass, but I'd love nothing more than sit around and watch SNCOs and Officers drive school buses.

Some of the drivers don’t want to pick up kids if they deem them sick. School district can be sued if these kids don’t get to go to school. Hence the need for sub school drivers

As a tax payer I'd be PISSED. They're already paying for bussing that they're not receiving. Now their tax dollars are going to pay for the NG to drive the same busses. So effectively being billed twice for the same service, with the bonus of taking the NG guys away from their real jobs, as pointed out above.
That's a bold strategy, Cotton. |

Had a guy in my platoon that got sent to the local school and got the license for it (think both mil and civ). Actually came in handy to be able draw a bus from the motor pool for ... reasons.

You know by law here in mass you have to have a cdl with a school bus endorsement to drive a school bus, probably just ignore that law

It will be hilarious a decade from now and some kid is asking her father “what did you do in the Army dad? Uncle Jayden told me about going to Syria” and the answer is “Well Cardi,while he was in Syria I first guarded a McDonalds in DC against old ladies in MAGA hats and then I drove a school bus”.

They're never going to fill those positions unless they pay more. IIRC that's generally a CDL job. The current generation of CDL holders isn't going to go for that, and the older ones are probably all retiring. They're competing against the entire logistics industry, that is also hurting for drivers, and offering a lot more.

Ask me how I know you never served. Well, for an expert on "served" you are wronger than two boys fucking. You can absolutely collect VA Disability in the Guard and Reserve. You can be compensated for any day that you don't collect pay from the military. You can opt to waive your drill pay if your daily Disability is higher, or you can opt to waive your Disability for duty days, its the SM's choice. I opted the latter. It's a mandatory annual briefing, back in the GWOT day all those fuckers were gettin' paid, and not just combat arms, the poguier the pogue, the higher the percentage. But that's just how it works for Soldiers, in the Army reserve components. Might be different for lawyers in JAG. |
