    I’m a school bus driver and I regularly get infuriated by people who drive past me when I have my red flashers on and stop sign out, wishing there was a cop around. Only once so far have I gotten my wish … and unfortunately it was the cop driving past me at 40 mph just as some of my kids were about to cross the road. I looked down and saw him with his phone in his right hand and his left hand on the wheel, not paying the slightest attention to what was in front of him.

    I’m lucky he didn’t run over any kids, because I probably would have gotten shot.

    I have the bad habit of maintaining eye contact and nodding my head out of politeness while people are talking, pretty much regardless of what kind of batshit crazy stuff they’re saying. It’s astonishing what people end up thinking I agree with. I try to force myself to stare off into the distance and keep my head fixed, but some people even take that as agreement and a sign that they should keep talking and talking and talking.
