Are you in the South Jersey area? Narrowing down your location may help folks give you better recommendations.
If you're into art and the outdoors, consider "Grounds for Sculpture" in the Hamilton area.

I bet.
My dad was with Cisco before they went public.
Honestly, the 1st office on the east coast for Cisco was in the basement of the home I grew up in, Rahway NJ. No joke. I was there to witness it. lol

Call them and say for you a schedule business trip and given them the dates you will be available on your return. Do not give them an option and they will normally agree. I travel internationally and this is how I handled it.

This is a good opportunity to plug energysage.com. Use them to find local installers. Definitely finance or purchase your panels.

Not a single car on that road!?!?!?
Ohhh if it could only be like that every day right?!?
Either your going home from your overnight shift or headed to work on a very early shift?
No rain today so enjoy the sun when it finally comes out again 🙂

Getting off the turnpike to the actual Vince Lombardi service area is a trip in itself

There are plenty of quiet spots where you can sit for hours that aren’t separate rooms. Many with outlets for charging. There is also a Cafe.

My Brother was approved and has been on their waiting list for years now. The last time he followed up he was told he's next when an apartment is available, but he's heard nothing. I'm sure the eviction moratorium during the pandemic didn't help.

Thanks!! I would do it but I genuinely haven’t been able everytime they mail me the questionnaire/summons. It’s like they know when it is inconvenient for me

I had gotten the month wrong and didn’t realize until filling out the questionnaire. I emailed them asking what to do and they gave next steps without any issue. I think as long as you aren’t avoiding or ditching they are accommodating.

I missed my date and emailed when I realized — they gave me next steps for a new date via email within 1 day of emailing. Worth trying.
