Nope. Aside from the fact that it's more than a minimal specialized skill and I take personal insult to your assumption of that, I'll quote myself:
"It takes a special kind of person to do the job and there aren't a lot of those around. If there were WT wouldn't be short 70+ bus operators. And pay needs to be commensurate with the challenges of the job. Even at the current rate of pay which posters here say is too high, it isn't enough to attract the right people to the job."
