Ryobi makes a battery operated compressor that’s the same firm factor as a handheld drill. Just set the PSI, clamp it to the stem, push a button, and it’s automatic. Super simple. You can open find them on sale for about $30 or less. I love mine and keep it in my car all the time. One charge lasts forever, and it shares the same pack as other Ryobi cordless devices.

Perhaps I do and I just own rental property in Worcester so I can continue to screw the underprivileged. Although Shrewsbury would be more likely, even I think Holden is too much 😀

It’s a nightmare trying to find air for tire in this city. I bought a small compressor that plugs into your cigarette lighter , $40 at auto parts store.

You're free to live to Holden where all the other cry babies about Worcester policies live.

Whoa! That’s a great hire! Very intrigued to see what transpires from this new department.

Those automated ones can't even put 20 psi into 1 tire for the 4 minutes they give you. Honestly a scam

Stephen Rolle is a good dude. He has been getting on the streets with various advocacy groups and listening to what problems they face in the City.

And your point? Mine is more administrative overhead is a colossal waste of tax dollars. And don’t get me started on the school department, that’s the single biggest waste of tax dollars. Read Ray Mariano’s recent columns on that cesspool.

Interesting guess, I’d kinda like to know what led you there, but no. 100% private sector.

Where the tax dollars go, per the FY22 budget: "Education costs account for 57.3% of all City expenditures, fixed costs account for 19.3%, Public Safety (including Police, Fire, Emergency Communications and Inspectional Services) account for 14%, Public Works and Parks account for 3.1% and the remaining 6.3% funds other city operations."

Here's all the salaries from last year, bet you can guess which dept. is actually getting the majority of the 6 figure salaries. Hardly any involved in city planning get anywhere close. https://datawrapper.dwcdn.net/PRGYr/3/

Honestly good for them!!!! And I will be knocking on their department door every week begging them to build a robust public transport infrastructure so everyone here can stop complaining about the lack of parking :)

Any evidence that they will all have six figure salaries?
