I'd say there's way more shit moving us to martial law than weekend warriors driving busses because the drivers (good for them) refuse the jab.
I've nothing against the Guard. Just seems slightly outside their perview to take your kid to school. Wondering what else they're going to be tasked with once the labor shortages get worse if the vax mandates stick.I'd say there's way more shit moving us to martial law than weekend warriors driving busses because the drivers (good for them) refuse the jab.
Holy fuck"National Guard Deployed in Massachusetts to Take Children to School"
Today, it's school.
Tomorrow, it's the vaccination center.
They'll offer ice cream as a reward.

meh... australia isn't even pretending anymore.Holy fuck
They actually pay fairly well here $20+/hrSemi related rant:
Want to solve school bus driver shortages?
Pay more than $12/hour and 3 hours a day. The only people who can deal with this are retired people who are bored and phone it in.
No driver I know will deal with that shit or those shitty children.
I’ve hired a ton of drivers and literally 0 of the school bus drivers have worked out. They hit things then lie about it, can’t back up, call in all the time and mostly just suck. Half of them are morbidly obese and lazy. We will not even interview them.

Good. There's not enough NG to cover everything they want. The end is near.New York weighs using the National Guard to replace unvaccinated health care workers.
Gov. Kathy Hochul has plans to use National Guard members and out-of-state professionals to cover staff shortages if thousands of health care workers fail to meet a state vaccination deadline on Monday.www.nytimes.com
Round here it's 25ish an hour and 4-6 hours a day, probably closer to 4 though. School bus company has had a permanent ad out for years.I've actually never looked, but how many hours a day does a bus driver work? It can't be many? While working a lot of hours sucks, making good money doesn't.
I'd have to be paid $100/hr to deal with that bs.
starts to feel a lot more like martial law, eh?New York weighs using the National Guard to replace unvaccinated health care workers.

Couple bus drivers i know are moms with school aged kids, fits in well with their home life & they know how to handle the shitheads.
UTICA, N.Y. -- Mohawk Valley Health Systems is facing an unprecedented demand for inpatient care; that coupled with staffing shortages from the state vaccine mandate has left the hospital system in dire straits.
"MVHS, like hospitals across Central and Upstate New York, has been challenged by workforce shortages which are occurring at the same time there has been a dramatic increase in acutely ill patients seeking care and treatment. At the same time, we’ve experienced an increase in the number of COVID patients. This has led to unprecedented numbers of patients seeking care in our Emergency Departments as well as demand for inpatient stays," said MVHS CEO Darlene Stromstad.
New York State has offered to send 10 National Guard medics to alleviate some staffing issues.
Just this week, MVHS terminated another 100 employees who failed to comply with the state vaccine mandate for health care workers, adding to the 180 the hospitals already lost in September over the same requirement.
Stromstad says staffing shortages are leading to capacity issues in the long-term care facility.
“The challenge for identifying adequate staffing has carried through to other areas of the health system including our long-term care facility, MVHS Rehabilitation and Nursing Center (RNC). Capacity at the RNC has been limited due to lack of staff. This is creating a backlog of patients in our two hospitals who are waiting for long-term care beds,” said Stromstad.
The 10 National Guard medics will allow MVHS to increase capacity by assisting in the RNC long-term care facility.
“Their schedules and onboarding are presently being planned. Ten additional professionals to serve as certified nursing assistants (CNA) will add to RNC’s capacity and allow us to alleviate some of the pressure in our two hospitals,” Stromstad added.
The medics will assist MVHS through mid-January.
Right?!Who could have predicted this?
have busses changed in the last 10 years?Also, there will be a field day of lawsuits when some 18 year old leadfoot with little to no experience wraps a school-bus around a tree.
