Every theater has to legally offer captions but most do closed captions such as glasses or a device in your seat.

yell into the void louder?

Is there a specific company you can recommend?

And many people do not like or can't use that equipment. They want or need open captions.

What's a plane weigh?

Oh.

Much more than a bus?

Welp. One just slid off the runway.

> that thread about the woman being stuck in her home without a plow stickied

I missed that thread. Is it anything like "The Summer People" by Shirley Jackson?

Thanks guys I will definitely not go to rent a center. And will be checking the states sites

Oh yes!

Oil companies won’t deliver if there isn’t a path, nor will gas companies. Or mail deliver services.

Thought I was smart getting studded tires. Found out that they’re really only good for icy conditions 😞

Remember the Cloud 9 in Wesley?

Quite a few from the people I know of around my area.

Staples has an HP laptop for $300. Way better than rent a center. Some people have older computers laying around, check marketplace. But then ask someone if this is ok. Don’t get taken.

Check out Great Falls Marketing, or go on the state's career center website.

That's BS. Biddeford has screwed with some family members and had their cars towed when they shouldn't.

This is the way

The house across the street from me has a hired snowblower, so it's possible. The guy comes out and does the driveway, then a few laps around the house for the little dog to be able to run around.

You do you. Feel free to park near the street.

Shoveling is good exercise. Or you could hire a plow and pay for a gym membership (snarky comment).

A snowblower sounds appropriate for your driveway. It is rare to find someone to snowblow driveways and probably hard to find said person too, but possible. If you live somewhere there are condominiums or businesses with walkways that get cleared you could ask them who does the snow removal.

Some towns allow residents to take some salted sand from the road crew's stockpile for use on their driveway if you need any. Sanding has become more important than plowing with the ice storms.

Two things: Stay away from RAC, like many have already said. And, find the job first and let them know you'll get the equipment they require before you start. Some companies will provide a laptop, others might only require a chromebook with a good internet connection. You can get a new chromebook for $100. Best of luck to you!!

I like how Lewiston made the list. Yeah…we gotta summer place on Canal St. It’s pretty sweet.

It’s big with the Harley crowd. Very classy.

For related reasons you should shovel all exterior doorways even if you don’t use them.

Almost every cinema has a captioning device. Just ask for it. It’s a game changer, really. Some are glasses and some are a box that you twist into the cup holder. It’s amazing.

I'm not sure whats behind your driveway but you should remove snow from the whole driveway for emergancy services and oil delivery as mentioned before. Here I have a fairly large section of lawn at the end and on one side of the driveway ( garage on other side). We plow all the way across the back lawn to the trees and up onto a portion of the side lawn making the plowed area as wide as possible. As the winter goes on and you get more snow you want to start with a bigger area ( as back as far as possible and as wide as possible) because the plowed snow will freeze and be piled up, leaving less room to pile snow every following storm. There have been winters we have had to use a tractor with a bucket loader to move the plowed snow piles to make room for more snow. Sorry if I didn't explain it well but my suggestion would be to yes clean the whole driveway as far and wide as you can. Plow rates vary by area but check the town FB page lots of people post plowing on there. In this area people w/o a garage move car into road, just leave hazard lights on and park close to side. It shouldn't take long to plow and you can pull back in once its done.

Like someone else said - steer clear of Rent a center. You’re going to be paying more in the long run. Look at Best Buy or Walmart or a big box store — often they offer 0% interest with credit card over a certain month. Just budget and pay it off before the promo term is up (and it’ll still probably be cheaper than RAC). As far as at-home work, I feel LL Bean has call center positions you can do from home (plus bonus: you’d get access to the employee store for cheap clothes/gear). Best of luck.
