The Potted Crossing Guard
Lakewood, OH
At 11:15 a.m. on Sept. 6, the crossing guard at the intersection of Hilliard Road and Rosewood Avenue was terminated from her position after police received reports that she was drinking on the job.
According to Sgt. Bruce Wilkins, while police did not witness the guard consuming alcoholic beverages in her car, it was apparent that she had been drinking. Wilkins also noted that the car was not running and the keys were not in the ignition.
The woman was immediately relieved of her duty and was driven home by Lakewood officers.

Geez… They want me to help the little b*st*rds cross the street for almost no pay during hours that make it impossible for me to get a real job, and now they want me to stay sober, too?

It’s a cold, cruel world out there, Mike. Good thing we don’t mind what condition YOU are in when you swing by with “product” for the Kafe’, eh?
