Carnival Workers Are Missing Out

Carnivals come to my hometown about 3+ times a year. I generally only attend if I have a huge hankering for funnel cake.

Better with strawberries

On my last visit to the Carnival, Husband & I decided to attack balloons with darts in hope of a stuffed giraffe (at least I think it was a giraffe). There was a pleasantly plumb lady inflating victims in one corner of the booth. We struck up a conversation. She enjoyed being a 'Carnie' with all the travel and meeting new people. The chat shifted to my job....

Me-"I'm a school bus driver."

Carnie- O_O "Oh, God. I could never do that. All those kids...."

M-"Don't you deal with kids?"

C-"Yeah, but I'm in a booth. They stay out there. *waggles hand over the booth's counter* I can't imagine being stuck in a bus with them."

I found this amusing. I guess her & I could never swap jobs. I prefer my job especially now that I'm working for this other district. Man, so many stories.

Want to know some of them? Here's a brief overview:

• Boy walking onto the bus in his boxers
• Kid smashing another kids head against the window
• Random fights for NO REASON
• Kids having sex without discretion
• Boy leaning out a bus window to try and hit his head on a street sign

And that's just from my bus... I have a dozen more second hand ones.

• Coworker nearly wrecked bus when a kid lobbed a D cell battery at his head, knocking the driver out cold.
• Kid threw a rock out a window hitting a windshield of a occupied police car. Bus gets pulled over and the kid arrested on the spot.
• AND MORE!
