Longer Drives To Work Now
It is back to school time and the buses are back on the road
I love late summer and early fall because it is football season. One of the things I don’t like about it though is the fact that it is also back to school season. Back to school means that it is going to take an extra five or so minutes to get to work. I know that sounds silly. Who should be whining about an extra five minute ride to work right? Well, I am going to whine about it.
You get used to your morning routine. Everything becomes a habit that is deeply engraved. Then on the day the buses start, everything gets screwed up. You get stuck doing 40MPH on a main road that has a speed limit of 55MPH. You get stuck behind a line of cars full of people heading to work who are all stuck behind a big yellow school bus that is picking up kids every ¼ mile or so.
I don’t know about you but it drives me nuts. I hate getting stuck in traffic when I am trying to get to work. I hate having to leave early.
