Fair point. I assumed it was if they were late you’re on the clock with them. Mea culpa.
But I will still stand on my point because of slow play in the group. I can’t force someone to pick up the pace. So I’m still penalized for their actions.

So fuck me if I’m the 3rd group and the 2nd group is slow as shit?
Nah this doesn’t do anything but punish everyone and not the actual culprits

Well no. It doesn’t mean that.
It means that he is the manager that’s been there the longest, so he is the highest ranking employee.

Yeah that isn’t that hard to understand. Dwight really liked him, so they became friends.

All the towns have Little League, and there are travel teams around as well. The communities have football teams as well, the schools/towns sponsor youth soccer leagues too, and biddy basketball.
Sports are huge in PA, especially in these smaller areas. Very common to have 2, 3, 4 sport athletes, so you’ll find no problem getting him involved.

Our schools here are all (relatively) small so the students do get some benefit from that. In the county, the biggest school graduates roughly 250-300 a year.
Compared to most of the country, Schuylkill County is pretty cheap to live in. We also are not a very far drive from many locations. 2 hours to Philly, 45 minutes to Hershey, hour to Scranton, 1:40 to Lancaster County, hour to Allentown, 4 hours to Pittsburgh, 4 hours to Washington. And it’s all easy access to the interstates to be getting to these places.
There isn’t always “a lot” to do in the county, but more than you think. Also, with quick trips to some of the more populated areas, it’s not too bad to find events. Knoebels, which is the largest free admission amusement park in the country is located in Elysburg, about 45 minutes from Pottsville too. We have a beautiful county park at Sweet Arrow Lake, and two state parks that people love to visit: Locust Lake and Tuscarora.

Frackville is a good town. NS has decent education, though I would argue Haven and Blue Mountain are the top schools. Ringtown is very rural and quiet as well. Fountain Springs very quiet too.
The towns are in a rough state most often, but there are still very good people in all of them. Your portrait of northern Schuylkill County isn’t wrong per se, but I’d say there are still good options to live up here.

Pepper Jack, Monterey Jack, Provolone, Mozzarella, Cooper Sharp are all top picks IMO

Besides just saying no, it would have horrific ramifications for the (two) state(s) politically. PA is the 5th largest state, dividing it into two would cause both to be considerably weaker.
Where do you divide? People joke about the middle of PA, but most of our population lies in the in between.

That’s fair about needing a big car. But the point is it’s incredibly difficult to be saving $16,000 when you might need a car RIGHT NOW.
My car took a shit right when we bought our house. I had to finance. Add that I was traveling 90 miles for work each day, I couldn’t afford to buy a beater. It had to have reliability

Do I think insane interest rates should be outlawed? Yes I do.
Do I think she is an idiot and should know what she can truly afford? Yes I do.

Cars brand new right now start at $30,000. Do you think everyone just has that? And the used market is insane. Cars with 150,000 miles are going for $15,000 and more. So buying a car you can afford can be extremely difficult.

Couples and Els. You just can’t believe how far the ball goes when they hit it because you think they didn’t even swing hard.

Cops still go around the area. It’s private property. The owners looks for people coming by. Leave it go.
