My driver was gone today. Had a sub driver.
Morning wasn't too bad. It was the afternoon when I had a different driver yet again. Actually, my afternoon route was driven by 2 different drivers. I was on maybe 4 different buses all total. My 2nd afternoon driver had a headache. He wanted silence on the bus. I had a whistle (gift from another monitor to try out today). It didn't work after the first 2 times they just liked to hear me use it for fun. *rolls eyes*
Anyway, only ended up with 3 conduct reports, plus 2 from yesterday (which I didn't know about until I found them in the route book). Bonus, the driver will be gone tomorrow too. Joy, of joys.
Am heading off to have hot chocolate and cookies with hubby at his office. *waves* Will be on later tonight though trying to get some projects done for tomorrow.
ETA: Sorry. Just brought to my attention that you might not know what I'm talking about. The guy that drives my route today was sick. A guy was called in to substitude for him. Both of us were lost. We were muchly frazzled. *g*
Driver: He asks, so you been on this route long?
Me: Oh yeah, 1 whole day.
Supervisor who came looking for me: *raised eyebrows* Blind leading the blind. *claps hands and puts on cheery face* Have fun you two!
Me and Driver: Oh Lord, this is gonna so suck. *nods*

"Now hear this! Now hear this! Flood main tanks. Dive, dive, dive! Up periscope. Ready number three tube. Target, gasoline tanker bearing four oh nine. Fire torpedoes! Hard a-starboard! Sonar, check for destroyers!"
It would probably have been more restful than your actual day.

That about covers it.

Well picture this. You got a guy who's been picking up and dropping off kids for the past five years. All of a sudden, he's sick one day. Nobody knows how to do his route but him. I've been on it all of a day. We're driving around completely lost with nothing to guide us but a flock of entirely lost children wandering around saying, "Pardon me, but have you seen my bus? It seems to be lost."
