They trained you on the routes. They trained you on the schedules. They put you through safety courses and orientation and handed you a manual that covered just about everything.Everything except the real job.Nobody told you about the passenger who gets on every single day with empty pockets and a full opinion about everything happening in the world. Nobody told you about the mother in the back with her kids and everything they own stuffed into garbage bags. Nobody told you about the job interview you wished somebody good luck on from the driver's seat and never found out how it ended.Nobody told you that this city would follow you home. Into the grocery store. Into the bar. Into every corner of your off duty life until you found yourself driving to the next county just to buy groceries in peace.Nobody told you about the coat you would give away. The lunch you would skip. The things you would carry home at night that had no business following you through your front door but did anyway because that is what happens when you do this job with your whole heart.Nobody told you this part.Written by a driver with 35 years of real experience behind the wheel across city transit and school buses this book is not a manual. It is not a corporate wellness initiative or an empty pat on the back. It is a seat at the table for every city transit operator and paratransit driver who has ever pulled out of that terminal not knowing what was waiting around the next corner and showed up anyway.From Joe the regular who rides for free and knows everything about everything to Terry who needs her space on a bad day to the new driver who needs to understand what they actually signed up for this book covers the real life of a professional driver with honesty humor and genuine love for the people who do this job right.If you have ever given a passenger your last dollar. If you have ever waited those extra two minutes because you saw somebody running. If you have ever sat in that seat after a hard shift and needed somebody to just say I know exactly what that feels like.This book was written for you.Every single word of it.Nobody Told Us This Part - By The Transportation Guy
