When I went to school, there wasn’t air conditioner on the school buses.
You put up with the heat, knowing the ride would be short. Twenty years later, I was driving a school bus. It was the only job I could get that would coincide with my children’s schedule. You could never think how surprised I was when I received a bus that had air conditioner. I didn’t think they had air conditioner on school buses. Even on the hottest of nights, I was comfortable. I even bought popsicles for my students. It was enjoyable to eat a popsicle and not have it melt before you had it finished. With the air conditioner, the kids and I were comfortable. My kids didn’t want to get off the bus and go into our home. All of us didn’t have central air conditioner in our home. All the two of us had were a couple window AC units, however they weren’t in the home offices. I was soon to find out why I received a bus with air conditioner. The AC wasn’t on every bus, however there were several that were blessed. When I was asked to take a trip to NYC, I was happy. I could take my girls with me and I thought it would be fun since they paid us. I even got a spending allowance for our lunch and lunch. Without the air conditioner, there is no way the two of us could have made the trip. Even with it, a sixteen minute trip was long and tiring. I found the AC was to keep the kids from protesting and me from falling asleep.
