I pulled up to PS 45 in the afternoon. He told me to get my right top brake light fixed which I told him it worked in the morning. then when the bus lady told me I had 0 kids he went up to her and asked her about me because she looked at the clip board then locked eyes with me. He then came up to me and laughing said lucky you, you have 0 kids

As far as the overload thing that is just bad communication between OPT and whoever makes the decisions and we shouldn't be held responsible because we were told to take more than ten if there are more kids at the stop wearing masks. The system is set up to fail.

We would never be responsible for that. However, Ernie told me that you should call the office and inform them that you have more than 10 kids ... and yes, you can't leave any behind at a stop or school. Just tell dispatch ... not your problem.

Yeah I mean I'm not concerned cause I'm not even close to being at ten for either run lol but if I ever did have more then ten I I would do what Owen said....radio it in and go about the run so OPT can do whatever they want as far as that point
