What is On Guard Duty?

On Guard Duty is a collection of incidents I have witnessed at my crossing guard day job.

Um, and you are?

I’m Patricia J.L., a daydreamer with an over active imagination. I write stories, share my crafty creations, and go monster hunting on my other Substack, Twisting the Myths. My day job is a crossing guard in Sault Ste Marie, Michigan. I hadn’t expected much from the job, but on my first day of training, I was proven wrong.

I’ve been writing down the interactions that have happened at the intersection so I can share the insanity that is humanity with you.
