Most of these drivers appear to be low information voters. Obamacare is biting them in the butt, yet they do not realize it.

“Insurance keeps going up, union keeps going up, every thing’s going up, and we're not getting no raise,”
so we decides to takes it out on the kids.
There, I finished the sentence for bus driver Terry Barrett.

Bus driver Terry Barrett should thank the his/her lucky stars that he/she still has a job.
Just wait till Obama finish his 2014 Year of Actions focusing on J-O-B-S.

Um, no thanks.

I should say, by the time Obama finished, everybody will have a job, will have minimum wage (whatever they decide), will have health care (the second tier), and everybody will be ‘happy’. Otherwise, you must have a mental condition.

I think a class action suit against the no show drivers for endagering students may be in order.

Insurance keeps going up, union keeps going up, every things going up, and we’re not getting no raise,
so we decides to takes it out on the kids. We should have been gotten free insurance wif Obamacare, but Ted Cruz had done shuttin down the gubmint.

Must note that most Florida school bus drivers are not union nor receive benefits. Only in more liberal and less diverse areas near Miami have unions, etc

The irony here is absolutely glaring. These union twits are using their union “prviliges” by going on strike as a result of the consequences of a policy that their leadership, whom they follow blindly, told them that they needed to fight for.
Like someone else said: “Embrace the suck”
To: SoFloFreeper
The bus drivers were asking for a 17 percent increase in their health benefits for this year.Anybody care to translate this sentence into something that makes sense?
So they want a 17 percent increase in their premiums or for the county to cover 17 percent more of the cost ?

These union twits are using their union privileges by going on strike as a result of the consequences of a policy that their leadership, whom they follow blindly, told them that they needed to fight for.In the article, (I know, who reads the article) the union to their credit says they knew nothing about the "strike" and did not sanction it and even helped to cover some of the routes...
Of course that can be complete BS since after all, it is a union...

242 drivers on strike, 80 schools affected and this is the result:
several students late and leaving some stranded at bus stops.
LOL!

If they “knew nothing” about the strike (I know, what union knows anything) then how did the word become so widely disseminated throughout their membership that hundreds of workers walked out?

These Demonrats all voted for Traitorobama because he promised them free phones, gasoline, and stuff. Didn’t they realize they would have to pay for it all, plus government overhead, through their health insurance?
If you voted for Traitorobama, now you can get sick and die, suckers.
To: Sir Napsalot
Bus driver Terry Barrett should thank the his/her lucky stars that he/she still has a job. Where I live, school bus drivers are part time, getting at most about 20 hours per week and in the summer, zero hours per week.
