I just got the call yesterday mine are delayed, but they're ADHD meds so I kind of knew this would eventually happen unfortunately

You should try calling around the private schools and putting your name on a list to be a substitute teacher. Then people would know who you are, what you are looking for, and you’d have a network who could tip you off when an opening somewhere comes up. Substitute teaching doesn’t require any special expertise I don’t think. You could also try public schools but there could be licensing requirements there.

What choice is there? When you have no where else to go you will do what they want.

Sure, buy or don't buy whatever you want, I'm just sharing pricing.
I think your assumptions about meat quality are incorrect, but that's none of my concern.

Dead insertion is not typically used in our area due to the requirement the system be taken offline. A new system is usually installed and the customers transfered to it so those transfers can be done quickly.

I work with insurance/pharmacy plans and there’s been a shortage on diabetic medication specifically trulicity, ozempic, metphormin. They’re being advertised for weight loss and many dr’s prescribing them. The shortage ebbs and flows as of late. Some dispensing companies are rationing and others requiring doctors to put in prior auth.

I honestly think it's more likely they think it's hilarious, because they too would want to say fuck you to their bills.

You're assuming the quality is the same at all of these places...and it's just a matter of finding the lowest price. I don't think that's the case.
I've never made corned beef so I could be wrong, but I can tell you that there is definitely a difference in the quality of other meats at these stores. Walmart is pretty much the worst. And I wouldn't buy meats at Aldi or Price Rite.

My son is learning a language that is not available at his school through languagebird, an online tutoring platform. It is working out great. You might check it out from the instructor side. https://www.languagebird.com/

Yes, CVS just filled one of my prescriptions for the first time since SEPTEMBER. I’ve been taking half doses and skipping to make it stretch so I don’t go entirely off cold turkey

Anti-biotic ? That’s terrifying. Helpful tip, Most people don’t realize that nearly all RI Hospitals have some degree of pharmacy open to the public. I have found this to be a great resource.

It’s my understanding that the issue with some shortages such as Adderol for example, is that the federal authorities that regulate /oversee the distribution of controlled substances, such as Adderol , Oxytocin, Suboxone etc…. Will only allow a specific amount to be released and then distributed to pharmacies over a given time frame. The number of people that require ADD/ADHD meds, prescribed by their doctor, is not relevant in the eyes of the FDA/CMS.
So, basically they are on “Back Order” until the pharmacies are allowed to restock.
What’s really scary is since these drugs are controlled substances it’s nearly impossible to “stock-pile” for a rainy day… or in my case, every pharmacy with in a 30 mile radius is out of stock, with out any idea of when they expect to be restocked. You just gotta call daily and hope the withdrawal symptoms /side effects are manageable….

From experience looking at BGE projects as a contractor.
The most typically approach with an older leaky pipe (usually cast iron) is essentially inserting a plastic pipe into it (not sure if it's pipe relining). The older residential stuff usually is 3/4" to 3" inner diameter.
Fun fact, when looking at some information on the BGE system, one of the oldest still in use pipe dates back to the late 1890's.

There has been no official notification. Anything else out there is mostly speculation.

RI Energy doesn’t even see the check. It’s sent to a processing company that opens the envelopes and writes the deposit for them. You’re just pissing off some random person that has no business taking the piss.
