I'm on board with this, however I view it as a service issue and not really a fare issue. If you're going to run weekend service, then charge weekend rates. Full stop.

But you would have to do something about Fourth of July. I point this out because think about the crowds coming and going to the National Mall and how you have to pay for staff, operators and MTPD to handle that demand. I guess they could try splitting it up so the morning was weekend rates and afternoon was full fare, but the simplest/easiest thing to do would be normal fares for that day.

Adams Morgan tends to be among the priciest neighborhoods in DC. You might be getting a good deal or a scam if that's where the apartment is listed on a low price.

The Metro increasing off-peak weekday fares would more than cover it. Also, during holidays, we get weekend service, with longer headways due to lower ridership. Why should we have to pay weekday rush prices for weekend service?

Good friend quit the politics scene and became easily one of the best 3-5 drummers in town. A rewarding choice for everyone.

They vary, but 11-1ish is a pretty standard window. We like to end our cleanups with either a happy hour or some kind of social activity. We have a kickball and aren't afraid to...kick it.

I know someone who went from energy law to running a small farm, free-range chickens I think.

Yooo, he needs to hit up USAJOBS.com. if he's a recent grad, there are pathways/recent grad programs

Well, then prepare for a sensory overload.

But again, how is it going to be paid for?

I wanna emphasize that second point. I'm a 31M and have seen what feels like 1 million of the same basic profiles and I don't wanna send a like and put effort in unless they seem to be more engaging. High quality prompt answers that give material to actually start a conversation are necessary imo. We're all more jaded in the age bracket tbh

I recommend joining this group; they post a lot of opportunities, including networking.

Way more people wanting to work, than work. The former librarian at my firm wanted to volunteer at the NGA library when she retired. Librarian. Archival experience.

She basically had to get in line after 18 other people with similar or better experience, to work for free for a few hours every other week.

Dumbarton Oaks needs a Byzantine specialist; the Museum of Women in the Arts needs a remote curator for a lot of money and no benefits. There will probably be 50 applicants for each position.

Check the universities, too. Some of them may have museum collections.

Just the 11 federal holidays (juneteenth was added).. We do this for all 104 weekend days and any day after 9:30 pm.

My massage therapist when from corporate law office to MT about 20 years ago and never looked back. Also have a friend who went corporate law to nonprofit work. Both are much happier.

How should WMATA pay for that out of interest?

Is it just the 10 federal holidays you want or is there more?

How long do these usually go for?

The new metro proposal will do away with off-peak fares, making a round trip $13 per person at max, rather than $4 per person. For 4 people, that's $52 vs. $16.

Not sure there's 8 people in the average family buddy!

How is their "a dangerous driving situation" at present with the current fare structure?

Former colleague of mine, a corporate lawyer, quit and went on to write cookbooks or something.

Is your friend already applying for jobs in the area? He doesn't have to be on the ground here to get a feel for opportunities.

His archival experience will be a plus in getting through the door.

I’ve done it. Went from corporate to being a teacher.

Ah, thank you!

Paying an extra $30 for a family to make a roundtrip during a holliday under the new proposal would change people's minds.
