journal 10 - Bailee

Arnie Knapp is a coach bus driver for very famous bands. A couple of them are Britney Spears, Justin Bieber, Tim Mcgraw and Lip Sync. You think his job is just driving a bus but its so much more. One trip can be 16,000 miles. He also has to deal with late nights and parties. He even had to take care of the drunk lead singer of the band. Luckily Arnie originally went to school for nursing and took care of him. Hes kinda like a motivator and takes care of his bands.He claims his biggest sacrifice is leaving family behind. Hes on the road 300 days a year.His plan is to retire in  about two years and go back to nursing school to help his wife because he loves her so much.

Some similarities between Arnie and Dawn Msestas is that they both have a passion for what they do and it takes a certain mindset to do these things. Arnie has to be away from family and Dawn has to relive her nightmare of her ex by removing other girls tattoos in the same way. They also help people Arnie said " i had to clean up the throw up and clean him back up and tell him to make better life decisions."(youtube) and dawn said " when women come in with circumstances like ours i remove their tattoos free of charge."(Dawn 164) They both are more helpful then they realize to people the meet.One major difference is Arnie travels all the time while Dawn stays in her office. I would say a main theme is the dedication these two have for there job.

  1. Being a coach bus driver seems like it would be cool, but I don't think I would be able to clean up throw up and other things like that.

  2. Its cool to know the artist's he drove for ! How exciting. I do think it at times would be a lot of fun and would create lots of stories to tell later on. But, at some point would get tiring. Especially with having a family at home.

  3. I think it would be cool to pretty much travel the us as your job but like Daryn said, I don't think I could deal with the throw up and I don't think I could stay up driving for that long.
