I drive beer delivery and usually wake up at 4ish and get to work 5-6 depending on my route. I already know if I'm not back at the warehouse by 2pm then 285 to 75 on the way home is screwed
There aren't many traffic laws that I wish would be added, but outlawing hazard light use during rain is probably at the top of the list of things they should add
Ones an adjuster for progressive
And the other is a agent for State Farm
Both positions require a college degree .
Doesn’t matter what the degree is , just gotta have one .

Traffic is obnoxious but getting to work by 630 and leaving at 330 every day made it fine.
Some of y'all are giant babies.

My wife drove from Smyrna to Stone Mountain everyday for many years
Started when our son was born ,
She got offered a job with a pretty decent salary and they said those magic words :
“ and you can bring your baby to work with you “
And it was 6 hours a day instead of 8 ,
So once he got old enough for kindergarten she’s drop him off in Smyrna , drive to Stone Mountain, do the work of two or three people and drive back on time to pick him up .
She got tired of the drive and found a closer job , and got asked to come back to clean up the books and train the new hire , about every 8 or 9 months .
About the third time they just called and asked how much do we gotta pay you to get you to come back and work here again ?
She mentioned the traffic was much worse , and the gas prices had doubled etc and named a figure that she thought was outrageous high , and they didn’t even blink . Just asked when she could start back .
So she was back to the top end commute for a few more years till the place shut down .
She got a job close by and after a couple of years of doing their books knew that they were gonna be out of business and started sniffing around for another job ,
They found out about her job search and asked why , she said I’m your accountant and you guys are going broke, at the rate you’re losing money , in a year or less , you’ll be out of business, I’m not gonna wait and go down with the ship
They seemed stunned and didn’t believe her but she showed her bosses the books and apparently none of the owners had any clue they were losing so much money.
They were indeed out of business in less than a year , or they had scaled back so much they might as well have been out of business.

Atlanta traffic has screwed me up twice on ODT deals and had to reschedule.
When I'm at work driving a company truck I don't care. I'll sit in traffic all day with the windows down blasting heavy metal and glancing at any hot chicks driving near by.
