		Mistletoe 4 months ago \| parent \| context \| favorite \| on: The School Car Pickup Line Is a National Embarrass... It’s awful. Big long line where I live and it used to be handled by one school bus and kids walking home. Imagine the waste of human productive time, fuel, etc. I’m always astounded this many people don’t have a job to be at at 3pm.

Mayhap part of it is the "modern smoke break" - the people picking up like to have an excuse to take a break from work in the early afternoon.
