NJ school bus driver fired for stopping at home with students on board



A New Jersey school bus driver was fired after he stopped at his home with a bus full of students on earlier this week.

The Freehold Regional High School District barred the employee after he picked up students from Howell High School and made a stop at his residence, leaving them unattended while he went inside, according to NJ.com.

The driver -- who is contracted by Jay's Bus Service -- went home after realizing he left his drop-off roster there, according to Rebecca Policastro, a coordinator for the school district.

An unknown number of students were left on the bus unattended for about three minutes, she added.

The district -- which filed a Report of Students Left Unattended with the state -- said it was made aware of the incident after the students were already being dropped off at their homes.

The driver's name and current employment status are being withheld at this time.

Jay's Bus Service, which is based in Lakewood, provides services to more than 150 schools in Monmouth and Ocean counties. It could not be reached for comment on Thursday, according to the outlet.

A portion of the company's website devoted to safety states that it is "committed to transporting the tens of thousands of students that depend on us daily to get to and back from school safely."

It also assures all its drivers "receive full training to ensure they are up to our safety standards."

Osho on Spontaneity

Osho on Spontaneity – Divine purity reduced to practical life means spontaneity Osho – Divine purity reduced to practical life means spontaneity. The spontaneous person is innocent.

To be spontaneous means not to act out of the past, because out of the past is all cunningness, cleverness, calculation, arithmetic. When you act in the moment and it has no reference to your past, the action has a beauty, a purity – the same as a small child’s act. Whether he laughs or cries or goes into a tantrum or becomes angry, all his acts have purity – it is uncalculated. His anger is hot and not cold. The calculated anger is cold. His anger is natural, a responsiveness. He has not brooded over it, he has not planned it. He is just in the hands of nature – hence the beauty. He is surrendered to his nature; he is not trying to cont...

After arriving in the city of Artyom by train, Kim traveled to an airport just outside the port city of Vladivostok where Russian Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu and other senior military officials gave him an up-close look at Russia's strategic bombers and other warplanes.

Shoigu and Lt. Gen. Sergei Kobylash, the commander of the Russian long-range bomber force, explai...
