Since I no longer work during the day time & also do not work in Atlanta's downtown/midtown, I was reminiscing about when I did.
On the sunny days that I had maybe 15 minutes left on my lunch hour I would sit outside in front of the building. In the distance I'd hear a whistle blowing...is it a police officer directing traffic? No. Well, who's whistling? It's Atlanta's drum major--Baton Bob! Unfortunately, I didn't find a simple video of him on the streets of Atlanta. But the link to his website has photos; there are some videos of him at festivals.
Except for traffic which I could avoid by riding the train, I miss working IN downtown/midtown Atlanta.

You felt safe enough to go out with Baton Bob on the streets? You're a lot braver than me ma'am. LOL
Ha! Ha! Yes, sir! I think Baton Bob made people nicer...We could laugh & smile about the same thing. I felt much safer. :-)
