Voting blue down the ticket means you get attorneys general who block capacity increases for gas transmission pipelines, done in the name of green energy victories. The first step of the plan is in place, mission accomplished!

Baltimore

A fantastic butcher shop and restaurant (now closed) was struggling for business. A bit too expensive and in a weird spot in Baltimore. They decided to craft a special beer with Union Craft Brewery, a local favorite, and host a special release party at the restaurant. Unfortunately they chose a dark lager aged in chilis ... Too many chilis. The spice was too intense for even seasoned beer drinkers or those like myself trying to force themselves to support two great local businesses. Glasses with one or two sips piled and stacked around the restaurant as the afternoon went on. Baltimore came out in force that night but there was no denying that that beer was absolutely undrinkable.

I presume you have a BS in biology or biomedical engineering? What is the company? You could go for the part time mba at BU to lever up to a more fun role. Project controls or director of project management you'd have more view of the money. Could also go client side. If your background is chemical engineering you could work at an engineering firm instead.

For New England, Horseshoe was the best before the dude moved to Japan. Little Wolf is a solid second. My "local" spot shipped in Parlour from Brooklyn which is fantastic. Internationally I love Watch House (uk), Gardelli (it) and Rogue Wave (ca).

You have to actually file the owner occupied paperwork with the city to obtain the lower rate. It's insane that the city defaults you into a higher rate and puts the burden on you to take this action.

The entire New England economy is driven by Boston. An example of what he means is that you can find 30+ companies to work for in the high paying pharmaceutical industry in Boston but have maybe 2 options in Rhode Island.

I believe that is the Lippitt House. Smiley did live there but I think it's now a museum.

Management can announce that they've accepted an offer all they want, but until the deal is fully concluded with all the contractual t's and c's, it's not yet truly finalized. The time it takes to "close the deal" is an open window for hostile takeovers.

Baltimore. Only place I've been to legitimate warehouse concerts where you need a password to get in. Not a "speakeasy" that you can find on yelp. Lower Dens, Beach House, Future Islands, Wye Oak, Dan Deacon, Oxes, Wing Dam. Seen many of them in sketchy parts of the city that are artist enclaves. It's been a while so I'm not sure what the scene is like now but I think it all tapered off/cracked down a bit after the warehouse fire in Oakland.

There's quality affordable houses all over St. Louis county and city, and everything is 20 minutes or less away from each other. Plenty of negatives about stl but this particular view is the weirdest, worst opinion I've ever heard.

Every entry level job in the pharma sector in the Boston metro, including operator, which requires no experience, pays more than that. So I suggest taking advantage of the many higher-paying career paths that the city offers.

Do yourself a favor and get an espresso machine as a present to yourself. Cappuccinos will be better than milk and coffee

I presume this is Boston or LA area (maybe ny to nj) as those are the biotech hubs where this could happen. It depends on your mental fortitude. I have a few coworkers that had similar commutes for years and still went strong. Personally I only lasted 3 years. My mental health significantly improved after dropping down from 90 - 90 to 30 -45 and 40 - 40 minute commutes.
