My husband works delivering pizza, and his boss e-mailed him and his coworkers, warning them about Pokemon Go players wandering around, eyes glued to their phones and not paying attention to their surroundings.I don't have an attitude problem. You have a perception problem.

as someone who has fallen down a cliff and lived in Arizona while being klutzy (i once almost stepped on a king snake) .... nothing I've heard so far happening could easily happen in any different situation .
