Its hit us hard at work with Schools cancelling off campus activities like swimming carnivals etc. our buses have ground to a halt with a dozen casually employed drivers now out of work until further notice.
Im just lucky that my split shift school runs are still going ahead otherwise it'd be the same for me, that is until the schools shut down which could only be weeks away judging on what's happening elsewhere.
Having said that, I have serious doubts that the business will survive on what school runs bring in alone, it really is more about having the buses with signage out on the road visible to the public than a money making exercise.

Meanwhile my Wife works in Aged care and they'll be locking them down any tick of the clock too, thankfully she is fulltime with a bit of annual, sick and long service leave up her sleeve.
