My father served on the board of selectmen for my town when I was growing up. He was so miserable during that time, it taught me to never, ever go into politics.

I can imagine. By ‘interesting’ I should have clarified: it’s like watching a bunch of kids argue over who can take care of a pet rock better, but in reality the rock is a cat being neglected in the corner.

Not all selectmen are terrible, but it only takes a few bad eggs to make it hell for everyone.

I should also note that analogies are not my forte.
