        Business Outlook

        Pros

        The job is fun and engaging. Great for a problem solver with a knack for technology. Paid health insurance for the employee (not paid for the family). Enrollment in the PSRS as a school employee, vesting at 5 years, retirement eligibility at age 60, retirement income based on an average of your highest three years of earnings.

        Cons

        Routers are expected to cover routes when we are short on drivers. Being constantly understaffed results in at least 50% of your time on the clock being spent behind the wheel of a school bus on an annual basis.

      I have an interview tomorrow where I get to ask questions to the interviewers. I usually ask questions like “how long have you worked here” “what’s your fav thing about working here” along with the obvious “what would be your expectations of me and how do you measure it” any other good ideas for questions?
