I would also like a legend. Blue seems to be major roads (95s, 2, 9, etc), but why is Route 1 only blue from Brunswick to Belfast? It gives the impression that it stops in those towns, even though it continues far past those points.

Also I see Islesboro, but not Vinalhaven?

To be honest, because I'm just dipping my toes into GIS. It's not my strong suit. I built this using R and a package that queries OSM, since R is my forte and the package made the data easily accessible.

Whenever I've been at this Walmart I've parked well back from the store and walked so I've never hit this bollard myself. I now wonder how thoroughly I've taken my life into my hands by doing that. If every week someone hits that stationary and yellow pole how are pedestrians safe? I just don't go there now.

Reply to comment by FightTomorrow in this is on their intranet as part of a 23-page propaganda piece about unions. 🤔 by ycleptKyara

There was no consideration of performance at all. The raises you get are laid out in the collective bargaining agreement contract for every non-management person in the company and completely transparent. I suspect a grocery store union would be extremely similar. Mine was Teamsters so not small also mine was from 2004-2012. There were other jobs in the company with higher rises and higher pay like driving and delivering packages or driving a semi truck. These kinds of higher paying positions are going to be limited in number at a grocery store.
