Thank you for taking the time to write a detailed answer, I really appreciate it!

Convenience

I like to use the price guns and bag my own groceries as I go along. At the end I use self checkout, scan the code, exit with everything bagged up in my order (easier to unpack).

I detest people ringing my doorbell. I work 4 am to noon, and if you make my dog bark…I will NOT be merry.

But if you just walk around a downtown area singing, that’d be cool.

Stop n Shop usually has it

How about not swearing or acting like a know it all. I am asking because a family member who is critically/terminally ill just received notice. As their primary caregiver now I have to chase down a doctors note, where to send it, etc. I asked here because it may not be worth the effort.

But hey thanks for your opinion I guess.

Applying for a state job and landing a state job are two entirely different things. If you are “considering applying” you’re a long way off from worrying about a pension.
