Something that's been frustrating for me is the bureaucracy around getting hired to government positions or school districts. I have a California State ID, which should serve well as identification - but I've been turned away by HR saying they require a drivers license several times. I'm pretty certain this is always incorrect when I apply for jobs that require no travel, but there's just so much policy you can't argue with. It's ridiculous. I also try to avoid telling employers I don't have a car, because I've been screened out of jobs by people assuming public transit is not reliable. Kinda frustrating. Btw, the US is huge. People here don't use enough caution when driving, but it would be impossible for most everyone to hold down a job without a car. Driving is a needed right when it shouldn't be.
