Anti-nimby. Request shelters in your neighborhood

It’s purpose is not to protect pedestrians, it’s purpose is a stop sign rugged enough to survive bumps. The striped area indicates no parking, it does not designate a pedestrian zone. It is not a bollard designed to protect pedestrians from vehicles, it would suck at that job because it keeps getting plowed over. If you cared to notice before talking out your ass, all the yellow poles at Walmart are for signs, they are not bollards.
Walmart does have a responsibility to design and maintain their parking lot in a way to prevent excessive accidents. People get sued for icy driveways for example.
How many commercial site plans have you reviewed or been involved with? You obviously don’t know what you’re talking about.

Always hiring. I stay anonymous on reddit but it's as real as the day is long.

Umm, I have 7 friends that do this. Usually 2 to 4 weeks out. Come home with chunks.

Teacher. There’s a shortage now and we will still have one in a few years. The University of Southern Maine has a 1 year teacher prep program (ETEP) if you already have a Bachelor’s.

You are very kind and thoughtful. By your example maybe this young man will one day be able to do the same and "pay it forward". I don't live in the area so I am of no help but I am sending my best to you both

Reply to comment by InterstellarDeathPur in Maine Turnpike to add new exit in Saco by InterstellarDeathPur
Tell that to Vermont. They’re doing both, for as long as they can 😂. They just added smaller milepoint signs in 2020. They do have a point, in regards to business names. Heck, there’s still even a Exit 5 Motel in Saco. And we’ve had mile marker exits for a loooong time.

Second this option, but check with him to see if he has access to any of his personal documents - birth certificate, state ID/DL, social security card, income statements (if any) and if he's currently on probation. Depending on the center/contractor, they usually need copies of those to move forward further along with the admissions process. Having any pending legal entanglements (i.e. probation, upcoming court hearings, etc.) will deny him entry outright or delay it until resolved.
If he has a "documented disability," then the income requirement is waived and he's essentially conditionally accepted barring something negative popping up on background check.
If he's interested and has those docs, then he should mention that he wants to become a "residential student," which will prioritize entry, as most centers are desperate to fill spots on campus.
Happy to further assist if he's interested .
