A childhood belief about work

When I was younger, I didn't take into account that the world was round.... So I used to wonder, "If we're the first car stopped at this stop light, then who's the very first car, in the very front of all stoplights on all the highways?" I assumed it must have been the President. THAT must have been what his job was: to lead the cars around all day.

So, I grew up with the thought of Bill Clinton sitting in a little black sedan, the first car at the very first stoplight in the world.
