Broke-ass Education System

I take the trolley bus to work a lot of the time and the aquarium is the last stop on the #19, joy. Are our schools completely flat ass broke or what? What is with teachers bringing on classes of 30+ kids during the freakin’ morning rush hour on public transit?? First of all I can tell you that 2 adults trying to contain 30 kids is like herding cats while on LSD chained to a fence and I can also tell you that it’s not my freakin’ job to make sure that Junior doesn’t wander off the bus in Chinatown because he sees something shiny. Today we were headed downtown and this little girl who couldn’t have been more than 6 years old made eye contact with me as she turned a lovely shade of kale green and proceeded to christen the trolley bus floor with her chewed up morning Froot Loops, lovely. Whatever happened to the days when parents would all carpool the kiddies or god forbid, the school would rent a SCHOOL bus to take them to where they wanted to go. Schools should at least pick non-rush hour times to take their orangutans/ kidlets on public transit for the sake of all humanity.
