Pro-tip: ask the pharmacist what strength/forms they have and then bring that info back to your doctor and have them write for what’s available. If you usually take 20mg and the pharmacy doesn’t have it but they do have 10 mg in stock, then your doctor could write for you to have 60 count of 10 mg, taking 2 per day, instead of 30 count of 20 mg.

The pharmacy cannot make the substitute on their own - they have to fill the prescription as written so this only works if your doctor writes for what the pharmacy has in stock.

Also, your insurance may choose to act stupid about it, as they do with basically any medication changes at this point. Cash price on GoodRX isn’t bad though.

Source: parent is retail pharmacist and because of the adderall shortage, she has a list of local doctor’s offices that she notifies every day of what they have in stock so that the doctors can write a fillable scrip the first time.

If he’s working in Cherry Hill, anywhere near the Light Rail is a pretty good idea. Mount Vernon, Woodbury or Mount Washington would be within a 30 min ride to work. OP, check out those 3 neighborhoods. You can get a room/hotel for a weekend in all 3. I’d suggest since the location of your job allows it (proximity to the light rail) that you not frustrate yourself and look outside of neighborhoods not on the light rail. Auto traffic and parking here in other neighborhoods off the light rail are absolutely rage inducing. You can easily live a car lite lifestyle at the very least with a job in Cherry hill. Your stress levels will be much lower and you’ll probably enjoy this city much more when you aren’t having wild swings in time spent in traffic and searching for parking.

That is probably more in line with the concept of apathy. But there are lots of people out there spending money on luxury cars that they also just simply cannot afford. You can also get a nice deal on a luxury brand car that has been totaled in an accident.

If you're working as a nurse or CNA/Tech they use scrubin.com to get it embroidered but it takes FOREVER to get your order. Took mine like 6 weeks and by that point orientation was over. The hospital could care less though if you have scrubs that have the logo on them or not. They just need to be the correct color for your job role. I went out to Essential Scrubs in Cherry Hill and found a really nice pair, way better and more comfortable than what I got from scrubin, albeit way more expensive.

Maybe you missed all those reports in the past of people being assaulted for no reason on public transit. I know they were working on the problem, but I am sure it is still on everyones minds at times.

Then there are the random bystanders getting shot just walking down some street, or standing on the corner. (maybe waiting for a bus)

I admit to being a bit jaded ..... I am the rare Uber/Lyft drivers with two bullet holes in the back of his car. Cost me $1,000 to get that repaired correctly.

I love that it is a small city (geographically and population wise), but that it is diverse with people from all over the world and has more than its fair share of cultural things (so many small theaters!).

I hate the city government that is an incredible mix of utterly corrupt, incompetent, and lazy from the very top to the very bottom and, as a result, I'm watching the city crumble around me (infrastructure, law and order, etc. )
