My mom was an elementary school teacher in that town for 25 years. She retired years ago. But even then the frustration with the folks in charge were mounting.

It was a nice town. But over the years they seem to have lost the “old New England small town common sense.”

Yeah, just because someone is a manager, does not mean that they know anything.

One day at Walmart I was standing in a line of six people at the checkout for the sporting goods dept. A manager walked up, ignored the people waiting in line at the register and told the sales associate to go stock shelves.

Even when the associate protested that he had a line of people waiting to check out, she persisted in ordering him to stock shelves. Only when someone in line spoke up did the manager acknowledge our existence.
