My goof I should have said the school year so I may have misled when speaking of year round school buses. There is some activity but mostly day camps, summer schools, and adult charters. Much less stress in those sort of assignments. Generally, the dispatchers and drivers conduct themselves pretty well considering the factors. Years ago, one company used to have a real problem with drivers acting like complete turds. I'm not using that term lightly either. You name it and they would say it over the air. All the dispatcher would do it tell them to keep it off the air. It got so bad that legitimate traffic could not get thru for several minutes at a time. Of course, on the last day it was even crazier with foul language and stupid noises since many of the drivers had no intentions of returning next school year. Now, they have radios with ID's so there is virtually none of that childishness on the radio as it should be. If they want to talk stupid, they can call each other on the cell phone or FRS in their spare time.
