Look at a map of your city closely. Understand the major streets and the directions they go. Explore the city and don't be afraid to get lost, you have your google maps to turn to if you do.

How do you think their salaries get paid?

This sounds like a legal question and so I would urge you to not rely on information you find here.
Can you just keep ignoring them? Probably. You could contact them and say "I don't use it so if you want it come and get it or if you make me a much better offer I might accept and start using it but that is too much" - they might decide it's not worth it

Oh I don't think that this applies to every homeless person, believe me. But I do know with 100% certainty that SOME of the homeless individuals in this and other states fit that description. Like I said, I agree with you that we do need to provide more resources and more opportunities to get help. I just don't know how to handle those few percent who actively do not want to be helped.

I agree with what you're saying but how do you address the people who do not want to accept the help when it is offered? There are many who don't want to get clean from drugs or get mental illness help. There are even more who don't want to work

I could see it happening there, since it’s only 2 lanes and people will intentionally not create space to merge

Like merging in front of you when there isn’t really room to merge? Is this when you’re going 85 in the right lane or left lane or anywhere?

Anything’s possible. I just don’t think we should assume the worst all the time.

That makes sense, but does simply testing positive for banned substances reach an acceptable burden of proof of willfully and knowingly using them? I think this is the dbr saying “this is your one chance to correct the problem”. It does seem that the dbr has the power to levy such a fine, so hopefully if there is good reason, they will do so.

They destroyed the products that failed the tests, what other punishment would there be?

I guess I don’t understand why you think those excuses are so bizarre? And how does lying about this get the DBR money? You’ll have to explain the conspiracy you see for those of us who are a bit less imaginative

It’s even more interesting that you’re a person fresh in the labor force? So you’ve only been working for a year or less, moved from a big city back home to RI? And now you’re talking about how much better the jobs are in Florida and Texas. But you don’t want to go work in either of those states? Do you have a job here or do your parents take care of the bills and the multiple houses? Did Boston not work out?

I mean there must be some things you like about it here to want to maintain a property and pay the taxes that you do?
I realize that it’s hard to grasp, but the taxes pay for things. So while you claim Florida as residency (and I hope you live there for the required number of days every year), the rest of us are paying for the public services that you use while you’re here. Your property taxes on your beach house cover some, but you aren’t a full contributor since you presumably pay no income tax to the state.
