I would love to use public transit, or even bike to where I need to go, but I live in a more rural area. The nearest, decent hospital is a 30 minute drive. A better hospital? Nearly an hour. Work is a 30 minute drive past farmland and lightly forested areas. No buses run between towns, since they’re so far apart, and the train only comes around 1-2 times per day.
Basically, where I live we have no choice. Even the buses that run in town have rather inconvenient schedules, making it hard to get to where you need to go (in a timely manner, anyway). Lots of places are like this in the US, unfortunately.
I’m not sure if it’s fun in the traditional sense, but I’m going to learn Python! I’ve been really unhappy in a dead-end (non retail) job and I’m hoping to branch out into tech for better opportunities (and perhaps benefits that don’t require me to use my PTO to cover mandatory holidays…) It will be a lot of work, but so far the tiny bit I have done has been really fun!
They just don’t want people to look at their bills and see:
C-Suite 3rd Yacht Fund: $2.39
Monopoly Maintenence Fee: $5.25
Lobby/Bribe Fee: $3.16
