This has been a very real thing for the St. Louis public schools this year. They have students taking public transportation.
My wife is from Seoul, and in Korea, the students were using public transportation to go to and from school back in the 60s and 70s. It’s how my wife went to and from school. They didn’t have school buses.
My how things change. 4 years ago when I had to work from home because of the pandemic, I got to craving a cup of coffee in the afternoon but didn’t want to go through the hassle of setting up the regular coffeemaker. I have some refillable K-cups that I can use for a single cup now.
I have family who are going through that, both in North Carolina and in Florida. We live in the midwest where we “just” have flooding and tornados. We’re always thankful when it isn’t us. BTW, my cousins in NC are some of the fortunate ones. They’re working with those providing aid getting to those needing it. The ones in Florida were also fortunate. No major damage.
At least the political ads are over for now.
