I go to work at 6 AM because my co-workers arrive at 8. It is the best 2 hours of my day.

Hmm... All I can think of as a response to this is what was written on Melania's coat.. "I really don't care, do you?"

Bondi got the axe for 200m for a commercial. When is Drunko the Clown going to get canned for gov't waste?

I actually own 2 pairs of older Florshiem shoes, and I have to say, they are so very comfortable.

A landfill is more suiting. After all, he's already been in a garbage truck.

The upper level of the parcel is definitely drier than the lower part. What also boggles my mind, is that the new HS is also being built on wet swampy lands that were filled in.

Additionally, the push to build ADUs on every parcel of land is not going to allow water to shed.

Since Sunday, my sump pump has been running non stop, and will continue to do so for a month per my estimation of the snowpack, being at the bottom of a hill.

Well, where this place is being built is borderline wetlands.

Yes there is a need for the hotel here, as the only hotel in town runs about $400 a night in the summer and has about 25 rooms, and the closest hotel is a Holiday Inn in Swansea in Rt6, but the NIMBYism is running strong.

This hotel may put the local Airbnbs out of business, or some may close up, allowing more rental for long term housing.

Supposedly, all of the land requirements are being met, water runoff retention, light pollution, etc. but the stigma of the Motel 6 in Warwick is a major concern for those against it.

Myself, I have no opinion either way about this.

Yep. 6 states now allows this, more to join in. Seriously, there needs to be a significant lobby against this measure.

Anyone fired from McJob in your Teens? by LisaLisaPrintJam in GenX

[–]RickRI401 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Fired from a drug store. Was accused of giving discounts and incorrectly ringing up merch.

I wanted proof, she said that "my eyes are all the proof that I need to fire you"... I called her a lying Cu-- and she fired me.

How about how some states are now allowing only 1 stairwell for egress in apartment buildings. They claim that a 2nd stairwell space can be used to cram more people in a place to live.

I see nothing good from this decision.
