We are overrun with skunks in my town this year.
Illegal immigrants. I live in New Jersey and I can be in Mexico in 15 minutes.
I was going to say the same thing.Nowhere. My parents never took us anywhere they didn't want to go. Ah, growing up in the 60's and 70's when kids weren't the focus of everything.
Yeah, we have that same issue. Our Walmart has a sign out front: Now hiring, starting at $14/hour. That's pretty good money for a job with no educational requirements.One of our current problems is the lack of people willing to work. Businesses from fast food to higher paying jobs are trying to find employees. "Now hiring" signs are everywhere. Several businesses have cut back on their hours open and days open because the lack of staff.
People SAY that about our area, but I teach high school and have never been aware of one of our kids "going missing" -- not one. I don't want to stick my head in the sand and say "not us", but it seems like I'd hear about it in real life. A couple times we've had a kid run away, and teachers /students are all questioned about what the kid might've done or said in the weeks prior to his or her run-away.Our homeless population is increasing and you can find them anywhere in town now, but I suppose that's true everywhere else. We're also a human trafficking hub.
I'll take the other side of that: People need to quit throwing their masks on the ground.Someone needs to pick up all the masks being thrown on the ground - no, I'm not touching them.
My neighbors just lost their adult child, so I'd definitely rather be me.You don't swap home just their lifestyle
I'm a teacher, and one thing about it is that -- even in the summer -- we're "always on". That is, I'm still getting emails from parents, I was over at the school today to complete a small task, and I'm working on lesson plans for a new class next year (not every day, not all day, but it's on my mind); I probably average 5-7 hours/week of work in the summer. No pay for that.My new neighbor is a teacher so I’m jealous of all the time she is spending outside this summer while I’m working away at my dining room table. But I’d rather not switch actual lives with her and now that I think about it, on the other side of me is two college professors that are off all summer too.
