The school bus only runs its route twice; once in the morning to school and once on the way back immediately after school. If you miss it, then you’re on you’re own.

I did after school programs in high school and I had to find my own way home. I remember frequently waiting in front of the school for nearly 2 hours after a short club meeting to be picked up by my mom because I lived 6 miles away and she worked the classic 9-5.

Edit: My home city doesnt have public transportation, so no city bus.

I don’t see the issue here.

To add, if you miss the school bus in the morning you cant just walk over to another bus stop and take a different school bus, at least in the district i grew up. You’re assigned a specific bus to ride before and after school and taking a different bus could mean detention to a full ban from riding the bus because it’s “a privledge, not a right” according to the district.

I ran into issues every school year because my parents were separated with shared, joint, custody, but my school district couldnt grasp the idea of me living in two homes, in two completely different parts of the city, and needing two completely different bus routes. They kept insisting I could only have 1 home address, but I literally swapped homes every Friday so I lived in each 50% of the year.

Honestly, not bad. It took some time to figure out how to learn/study on my own as someone with ADD, but once I found an approach that worked for me it was smooth sailing.

1st time I went to college (2013) I studied for electrical and computer engineering, but had to drop out due to worsening depression and undiagnosed ADD.

Floated around in food service for a bit before working at a last mile delivery warehouse at Amazon. I hated amazon so much i enrolled in a different school and got my associates in IT support. The associates helped me get a job in eLMS support, which I love doing, but it always bothered me I never finished my bachelors so I went back to school a 3rd time for computer science. Made it a year in before I dropped out again because it felt like I was just being scammed despite the school being accredited and legit.

There were a lot of issues, but the major one was that all of the programmimg courses were “taught” entirely within pearson’s system. My professor wasnt teaching or grading anything, it was all done through pearson created lesson videos and person’s test/homework system. On top of the standard course fees and virtual system fee (covers upkeep of the school’s LMS), I was expected to pay an additional fee to pearson to access the entire course material. The school expected me to pay them to outsource my education to pearson and to pay the fees involved in said outsourcing.

Yeah, no, fuck that. After sending a lengthy email to my counselor and deparment, I dropped out and started teaching myself with material freely available online.

I have no regrets. Fuck pearson.

Not going to lie, this is a game concept I would love to play.
