Mean/Abusive School bus Driver

Post Reply New Topic

I am just wondering if anybody has ever had a mean or verbally abusive bus driver. I take a taxi (employed by the school board) and I have had several drivers over the years (since Grade 8, am in Grade 12 now). The two worst were in Grade 10. One would get very angry at me if I was late (even by 30 seconds) and would scream at me about how I shouldn't be late and when I told him "I am not in a very good mood" he snarled "I don't care". I finally spoke up about his bullying, and he was either transferred to different people or fired. Second was a nice man, but he would preach his religion and views to me (he was Muslim).

Has anyone ever had a mean bus driver?

There was a public bus driver that I had to put up with whenever I took the bus to work. If you took a few seconds too long to board the bus, pay the fare or find a seat, he would be mean and verbally abusive. He was this way to everyone who boarded his bus. One day a man needed to purchase a transfer and didn't have the correct change. He tried to ask another passenger for the change, since the bus driver got snarly at the request. The driver then ordered him off the bus, and the passenger lost his temper and began punching the driver repeatedly. That driver didn't drive again for a long time because he had a broken nose. I tried to feel sorry for him, but it was hard.

I actually did not talk to the bus driver much and they did not talk ot me much when I took a school bus so they weren't abusive.

When i was in 8th grade (im a sophmore now) i had an abusive bus driver and she would scream Constinly at us, i couldn't take it no more so i had a few meetings with the assistant principal and they couldnt get her to stop so i had to wait till the end of the year and take a full school year of screaming at us
