Imagine starting her next career as a bus driver at the age of 58...while most are retiring...30 years later she is finally retiring..getting up at quarter to 4 a.m. daily to drive kids to school . I am so impressed with this woman - thank you for all your years of taking care of these kids...some are now over 40 years of age. You are such an inspiration...

Mary!!!!! James and I are going to miss you dearly. Thank you for keeping my baby boy safe. You always made sure he got to the door before pulling off. I’m sure we’ll see you around especially at the grocery store. Maybe we can meet at the register and exchange coupons 😊 You will be missed as a bus driver. Enjoy sleeping in late and spending time with the family. You’ve earned it my dear. 🙏🏽🥰 🚌

@erasak2 жыл бұрын
She reminds me a lot of my bus driver as a kid, I’d fall asleep on the bus a lot and one day missed my bus stop. She told me to “sleep early and not stay up playing those games or watching movies” She knew me too well even though I probably denied it.😂😂 I can’t say it was the last time I’ve fallen asleep, because I remember doing it again and her having to get up and wake me up at my stop. I appreciated her a lot, she was awesome and gave us candy after the holidays.

Congrats Mary! Bus drivers play a very special role to the children and their families. They are in charge of safely delivering the most precious cargo in the world. My bus driver was a very special woman her name was Mrs. Hanson. She ran a tight ship. From my first ride starting in kindergarten until 11th grade when I got my drivers license. Teachers change, principles change and other staff throughout the years during my school years. Mrs. Hanson always was my driver. Our ride would be one hour in the am and one hour in the pm. We spent approximately over 3,000 hours together total. Blessings to Mary and all the bus drivers, Thank you!

But I can tell you what she'll have a very good retirement when she leaves the job. She's loved her job for that long. That's why she did what she did. So all I can say to that driver is Happy retirement and hope you do well.

This is mind boggling. I understand it's pretty and eye-watering and all, don't get me wrong. But the safety standard difference is so big. Here in Europe bus drivers must can't be over 68. After that age, they can only drive 9-person vans.
@kimberlysevastyanenko37982 жыл бұрын
Well, if she was physically and mentally fit enough I don't see the problem. I'm sure they did routine testing to make sure she was fit to drive.
@LuckyCharms7772 жыл бұрын
My transit bus agency had two drivers in their 80’s that have been there over 50 years. As long as they pass the physical every 1-2 years and don’t have accidents, they’re fine. They’re probably safer drivers than people younger than them. Having a maximum age is age discrimination.
