----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Sorry for delay, my Insurance was tryna make me pay $625 a month for one of my medications.(Tired Sigh)

I've said before that my work revolves around school hours, but I never said what my job is.

Some might assume I am a teacher because of Renjiro, Self-Insert, yada-yada.

Nah, I work as a School Crossing Guard.

My Aunt works as an English and ESL teacher, I got reference info from her and my county's public records.

My job as as a Crossing Guard is under the jurisdiction of my county's local Police.

So I have a good pay rate and such, but I have to report to their Crossing Team if shit goes wrong.

I got called for a deposition because I directly witnessed a minor car accident, so both driver's insurance companies called me in to be deposed.

Which I had to take in my place of employment, the Local Police Headquarters, since I don't have an office.

Fun times there. (Another Tired Sigh)

Car accidents happen regularly where I work, had another, more serious case, happen this past Monday.

Luckily, I only heard it after the fact and didn't see it happen, so I don't think I will be called to be deposed again. (Tired Sighs Intensify)

Accidents happen so often though, two happened on the 13th and 14th, Sat and Sun, when I wasn't working.

The first resulted in the death of a Single Father with two kids, now orphans.

The second ended with a young couple both dying on impact.

Both times were the result of the other driver going over 50mph in School Zone 25's and 35's.

Not going to lie, these accidents scare me, I work VERY close these areas, only a block or two away.

Because of them I feel the need to always be alert when working and I end up taking my ADHD meds with energy drinks, basically wired up the whole day.

If I can get some writing done while wired, Great! If not, by the time I recovered from paranoid anxiety, another car crash happens.

It's a nightmare to deal with since NOW if I don't take my meds on my OFF Days, I never have the energy or drive to start writing.

I am so exhausted from having to constantly watch out for my own safety, but also the safety of the Middle Schoolers I cross twice a day.

There is more, but I already feel like I am rambling.

If you want to know the daily struggles of a stressed crossing guard, I can add an addendum. But most people likely wouldn't want that. That's why the TLDR is at the start.
