It has worked out ok for me. I retired four years ago from 35 years of 60 hours a week trucking and trying to play farmer. The Farm gig wasn't enough to keep me as busy as I like to be, maybe I should say as busy as I was use to being. So I went to work for the local school where my kids went and where I went to school. I had most of the needed Licencing so they were tickled pink to have me sign on. Its a good fit with my farming as it comes to about five hours a day driving. Like any job, you have good days and days you wonder why in the heck are you doing this. We got outsorced last year and we all got terminated. I figured they did me a favor. The same day the outsorce company offered most of us our job back with a 2 buck an hour raise. (It was already allot more than 10 bucks an hour before the raise.) After 4 days of school its too early to tell how its going to work out. I did move up from a 14 year old bus to a brand new one. Its like you said though, its not easy to get drivers. I never thought I could put up with it but I guess I sirprised myself.

To top that off, you have a cup with oil in it ("why would you want to lubricate your carburetor?"). On closer examination (and some reading in a AC D-14 service manual), I found out that this is a pretty ingenious method of cleaning the air in the tractor's intake tract.
