Summary

I have accepted different seasonal bus driving positions in many different states since my cdl. I also have be doing expediting around the country as basically an independent truck driver but in a sprinter van. In the past i did enjoy interacting with guests and having a good time making their experience better. I enjoy expediting. But, i see only a few people at gas stops and warehouses and thats about it. I was searching on indeed to see if their might be a charter bus driving position that would get me back in what I enjoyed about being a tour guide/bus driver. I think your position is perfect for me. And I'm excited about interacting with tourists who are out to have a great time, and enjoy me as their driver!
