That dog pound had me complacent. Such a sweet gig but **** pay. I think leaving that program is the best thing I've done since joining the program
There you go, think outside of the box factory.

When I told my bosses how far I had to walk to get home cause busses stop running they told me to buy a bike. Sodexo sucks.

But you couldn't afford a bike so you had to take a hike?

Bro a lot of the jobs I used to work they wouldn't hire you if you told them you didn't have a car. Uber and Lyft changed that a bit but that's basically the normal response. It's really bizarre to me how this turned out.

Yeah, whether you have a "reliable form of transportation" is a standard interview question

Gotta get a car you can’t afford or starve

Make sure it’s ****ing impossible to work on yourself

Debt debt debt

****ing asswipes don’t pay enough to afford a car and insist you have one

plus it’s bull**** there’s not one old school no frills easy to repair basic ****ing generic car out there

It’s all so compact and intertwined you have to take everything out to do anything at all

The country was built off trade routes run by horses and buggies.. Then the sprawl was amped up by the white flight to the suburbs in the 20th century... It's not even just a matter of we don't fund public transport enough... A large majority of the country is completely incompatible with public transport. Though we do obviously under fund it.. The main problem of how spread out we are geographically.

Ban the private automobile and use the money for public transportation

Tell me I’m dreaming

Then tell me how the **** this system of transportation people can’t afford being necessary is sustainable

sure stop urban sprawl but with guaranteed housing

stop allowing investment property at least until homelessness is eliminated
