As dense as Canton is you'd think there wouldn't be viable amounts of room to do the whole drivethrough queue.

Xfinity is pretty much the only game in that area. The T-mobile 5g is actually pretty dang good if you want to go that route.

> I see the cop car or truck there every single day. It kills me that they are being used to babysit the people who do the squeegees instead of banning the practice and giving those guys jobs with the city.

I think Kerrygold at Trader Joe's tends to be the cheapest Euro butter I've seen. I haven't ever noticed anything more compelling at Wegmans and tbh I don't really ever go to Aldi or Lidl so can't speak for them.
Costco also sells Kerrygold, but IIRC their price isn't better than a supermarket sale price.

It's impossible for me to be a dick. Literally and physically and metaphorically as well.
I can be. However, an asshole. I am not in this case.
Driving Uber/Lyft to is not a sound financial decision.
>I drive a new Honda Civic

Sell it or trade it in. That you think me saying that makes me a "dick" kinda proves that you are not financially literate.
As Biggie said once, "Don't be mad. UPS is hiring."
​
You got a car note you can't afford. You have a depreciating asset. Putting the miles and wear on it is not a sound financial decision. Sell it.

Don't be a dick. It's a 2021 I got last year. And I lost my job.

You got a new car with no job?
And you want to wear down the depreciating asset quicker?
Sell or trade in the car and get a beater.
Also please learn financial literacy cuz from this post, you're illiterate.

It’s a pretty well documented finding that you net lose money being a rideshare driver. Decreasing value on the car, gas, income tax, wear&tear. Whole gigs a scam unfortunately

I was warned about tweaked a by the folks at Housewerks like 15 years ago, I think they drove us to the light rail because they were so problematic. I’m not saying they cook there but I do believe there are users there, not far from homeless areas also.

Are you an officer? No I don't get down there alot but I've been a first responder in Baltimore for 17 years and never once had a patient with meth or walked into a meth lab environment that we are trained on. If im wrong I'm wrong but I've never seen it

Pick up a small cooler, then get Frozen Crabcakes from Koko's and Ice cream from Taharka Brothers. Add some local beer if you want to complete the meal.

A couple months ago, a driver played stupid games and went at squeegee workers with a baseball bat. One of the workers was carrying and fatally shot him. He was 14 at the time and was rung up on murder charges for it.

This is occurring in various parts of the city. One constantly sits in an apartment complex lot on Bowleys Lane near Sinclair Lane. Every single time I drive by it is there. I believe these are known problem areas or high profile areas that have the cop sitting there as the result of influence.

Reply to What stops the city from doing to blighted neighborhoods what they did to Federal Hill in the past? by Cheomesh
There is not enough money to support all of the city neighborhoods with big improvements. Instead of spreading investment across the entire city, or focusing money on blighted neighborhoods the city is improving some areas and letting other fall into disrepair. The mismanagement of city funds takes a toll, and mass improvement in certain small areas has a negative impact.
