Typically we only get one side of every story. As far as getting her job back, we've all been in that position. Sort of between a rock and a hard place. If, she stays she will question her devotion to the company. If, she leaves, future employment can be sabotaged. Carefully chosen words can say to a potential employer, do not hire her.
The real world. The person who fired her. Rare is the person who can and will say, I REALIZE I WAS WRONG-I'M SORRY.

One of those shuttle busses. Imagine a bus full of people. You need to drive the bus, you are responsible for the safety of like 40-50 people. Some are seniors with medical issues, some are kids that whomever is with them thinks it is fine for them to bother other people, like kids, I did not need to go at the bathroom break ten minutes ago, then there is, it's too hot, It's too cold etc, of course it is a service dog, I bought the vest on Amazon.

There is no such thing as a free lunch, everyone paid one way or another.

First of all only the son was waiting to be picked up, one has to assume his father was put in to quarantine somewhere. Secondly there were approximately 20 people on the bus, the six of us were the last to be picked up.

Janet did not leave two people at the port, Yankee Trails told her to return to Miami and pick up the son of the man who tested positive for Covid and was part of the reason why the ship could not dock in the first place.

Only one person was at the dockside, the other was presumably in quarantine. For your information there were approximately 20 people on the bus.

... and according to the story she refused to do that which resulted in her being fired and two people standing at the port waiting.

I give up with you. You would argue with a barn door. At no time was it said that Janet had to pick up two people from Miami

I am sure Janet will have no problem finding another job. Drivers are desperately needed in TV and if she was capable of driving a large bus full of old people, she could drive just about anything. Yankee Trails will be the loser here, the round trip to Ft. Lauderdale/Miami is a horror show. You take one bus load down one day, stay overnight and pick up the next lot the next morning. Have you ever seen a bus load of old people who have been waiting to be picked up at Ft. Lauderdale, they are miserable complaining people. Another thought, have you traveled with these old people and seen how cheap they are? Not too many of them give the driver a gratuity.

Doesn't matter if it was one, two, or twenty - Janet refused to do her job and one or more customers were left stranded.

In my opinion Janet's action was correct. The person left was traveling with someone that was diagnosed with COVID. Leaving one person behind vs exposing a bus full of seniors was the right decision.

First of all my comment was directed at a post that I quoted, not your post. Second of all your post made it seem like she was told to go back and pick up 2 people in Miami.
"One of the two passengers Janet was told to pick up was the son on one of the Covid Victims who quite obviously been in close contact with his father."

Thank you for that information. I have emailed him and received an automated reply saying he is out of the office until June 3rd. I will update when and if I hear from Mr. Tobin.

Deciding that this person was contagious was a decision beyond her pay grade. The testing and protocols on the ship (and possibly the CDC protocols) determined that he was not a risk at that time.

Of all the people on that bus, the one person left behind went through the most thorough testing to prove they were not contagious. No one else on the bus would have been scrutinized as much as this individual yet you consider all of them to be okay and this one individual to be unclean. It's good to leave these decisions to professionals.

But again, not my people, not my problem.

Do we know what happened to the son who was apparently left stranded in Miami? Do we know the age of the son? Was he an adult, teenager, or child?

YT and Janet.
 

Janet of YT did get her job back, as she drove the 3 of us to Tampa on Memorial Day. Very pleasant capable lady and today June 4th, she picked us up right at the curb after our trip. We didn't have to wait more than 5 minutes.
I recommend Janet and Yankee Trails.
