    Nobody wants to be a bus driver with the way this generation of kids act. It's almost unprecedented, the juxtaposed level of immaturity and overinflated sense of being grown. Plus add the increased levels of bullying, it makes for a very stressful situation. Both dealing with the kids and the parents of kids' generation

      I couldn’t agree more! It’s one of the reasons why our schools are a mess. There is no way I would drive a bus with the types of behaviors I have witnessed in my last couple of years in education. The buses need another adult so the driver can focus on driving safely. But that is an impossible expectation because they can’t even fill the bus driver’s positions.

    Having lived on both coasts, I can say with all honesty that there is a huge difference between the two when it comes to "hundred year storms"). The East coast prepares by using tried and true methods up to and including evacuations. The Southern California approach is different. Rather than using the tried and true methods that other states use, they plan to respond...after the fact. But they are understaffed and slow to respond, especially if roads are washed out. Which is the same as having no plans at all. Remember this past winter? The San Bernardino Mountains were hit with hundred year storms, back to back. People died. The response was muddled by people wanting to see the snow. The utilities weren't restored for weeks! When we were there it only took them 6 days to restore our power.
    3 "hundred year storms" in a year. Beyond unprecedented.
    I hope people take heed and get out of places that are prone to flooding or washed out roads. Because you know that help won't be able to get to you. I'm wishing you all the best, and hoping the storm loses power. If it's a cat 4, you should leave. Head inland, far inland.

      Large organizations, including government, tend to retain people who like the structure provided by rules and procedures. Especially for the career people, you learn not to stick your neck out or try to make decisions three levels above your paygrade. This employee fell into that pattern-thinking trap and either didn't feel empowered to override it or thought reflexively that he was risking getting fired if he didn't stick to the purpose of the warning system. Heck, he could sue for reinstatement and even try an "I'm not paid to think" line of argument.

    Here in Miami Florida whenever there's a severe weather or other issue that requires immediate action we get a very loud alarm notice on our phones, radios, tv's and internet.
    With details about what the issue is and how we should react.
    In south Miami-Dade we actually have 60's era civil alert alarms with extremely loud audio speakers telling us to turn on any connected devices for details.
    It's actually a system to announce problems with Turkey Point nuclear power plant emergencies but it can be repurposed as per government demand.

  • @larrenwade9535
    @larrenwade9535 11 місяців тому +3

    The sirens would have given people blind to the real reasons for the alert to seek higher ground and to move inland. Not what we would have wanted to see. Should there have been a plan for catastrophic wild fires. Yes! A different signal or cadence or even public service announcement instructing residents to move toward the sea not away.
    The construction of homes and the thin rim of real estate including the roads and the classic trade winds feeding the blaze was a recipe for disaster.
    Sad.
    Initiation of evacuation via the US Navy or local boats could have saved countless lives.
    We were not prepared. No one person is responsible. The system of checks and balances failed.

    Yes, helping each other is a welcome intention for people of Maui though it is the thinking of top Chef.

    I fervently hope that every sheriff or correctional officer wears their body cam while processing Donald Trump, capturing the situation from all angles. I'm incredibly eager to witness it firsthand.

    I'm so sick of hearing about all we are doing for Ukraine!
    It makes me sick to think that we can only give Hawaii 700 bucks while Ukraine is getting MILLIONS and all those jets too. It makes no sense at all.
    Mr Biden..You can do better than this.
    I'm not just disappointed in all I'm hearing out of Hawaii , I'm terribly disgusted too.
    What are we becoming?
    This is terrifying, who's home and land will be next?
    I guess if you have millions your home won't get burned down. And you water still works.

    People are cruel. Always looking for someone to blame. We cause more pain when we go searching for accountability. I pray for these leaders and these people to forgive.

    Can we please, please, stop complaining about the smoke that is coming from our neighbors to the north in Canada and start focusing on what they are going through with these wildfires?

      No, it's nice to be able to blame Canadians for something for a change, however unfair.

    2-3 years of rain in 6 days for Death Valley means Death Valley may see 6-9" of rain in a little under a week.
