In a lot of the world, a school bus is a normal city bus that gets "school" signs put on the front and back, and runs a specific route. There's not much point in maintaining a dedicated fleet.

Even "App App" would be better.
I am outside the US and I don't think they usually are drug tested.
But that doesn't mean showing up high to work in a supermarket is OK.
We have 5S.
The tool cabinets are in useful places but the keys for them are all back at the maintenance office.
They threw out the spare bolts because it was easier than organising them.
Which is what the meme talks about?

It would have to be in a single district; attempting multiple would definitely fail.
NZ has had a number of individual electorates where the Greens* won the seat, Labour came second, and National 3rd. With a sufficiently left-wing area and a galvanised base, it's possible.
- Note: NZ greens definitely are not the same as the US Russian plants.
It is possible for a third party to arise in FPTP elections, but it's certainly not common or easy. The UK has a bunch; NZ had a couple before moving to MMP; I think Australia has some.
It usually requires a competent and well-known politician storming out of their party for ideological differences, but being locally popular enough to win their seat as an independent or new party.
AOC might pull it off.
Here in NZ I believe they mostly can set their own routes, being 'independent' contractors.
I have heard Amazon in particular is super tight in the US.
More than half of Americans reported receiving at least one scam call per day in 2024.
What the actual fuck? I don't remember the last time I got a scam call; might not be this year.
I got a phishing email last week.
Apparently another reason to be glad I'm in NZ.
And probably drives on the most efficient route for their run.
You're about halfway along the run? They'll always pass you about halfway through the day.
They've been deporting those who are there legally too.
With an insufficient workforce, pay rates going up isn't necessarily enough to get you workers. Moving regions to get a new job isn't usually cheap or fast.
I don't know if the previous pay rates were illegally low (the US's definition of illegally low is itself low), but that doesn't necessarily mean that they couldn't & wouldn't pay ~$20-30/h if there were workers available.
Going from a labour-cheap world to a labour-expensive world also implies that people want to increase mechanisation and automation, and that's not cheap or fast either.
