There are many edge cases with humans.&lt;p&gt;I worked at a pizza place in high school. There was a delivery driver with cerebral paulsy who was constantly being accused of being drunk. Sometimes customers just called the cops on him. It was sad, he was a super nice young guy already on a short clock and he had to deal with that all the time.</text></comment>
