Bruh who thought rhat was a reasonable timeframe?!

All I can say is wow, that is some serious dedication. Now that you’re on the other side of that process… are you glad you did it? Would you have career-switched to something else instead?

I quit my job Feb 2022 and have been pursuing music as a career for the last year. It’s been a lot of ups and downs, and some financial close calls, but I’m a lot happier.

It’s not confusing or whatever excuse you want to make. Pay the fine.

Are you offering to invite me over if you keep it?

pretty much. i was over a decade removed from undergrad to dental school, and while i had a bachelors in biochemistry i needed to retake some courses for some schools

from the time i actually made the decision to pursue teeth it took me almost five years to start school. had to transition out of the previous career, and sell my condo, and take some of the refresher courses (last part took the longest since i did night classes while still working)

but the path was the same as it is for any other dentist: take an entrance exam and hopefully score well, apply to schools and get interviews/get in, survive 4 years of acute hellish torture, pass three board exams and get a state license

ask r/nova and figure out for yourself if like pools

You might want to ask the nova subreddit as more will have experience with the question.

But keep is my vote. We have like 6 months of usable weather for it here.

Did you go in person or mail it in? I think it’s worth contesting but not sure if one option is better than the other. Thanks and sorry it didn’t work out for you

Depends on how old/lifespan of the pool. Do you value having a pool? They'll add to your home owners insurance as well as the cost of maintenance. Are you ok with those costs?

Pools can be a ton of fun in the warmer months and if you like to host parties, having a pool is a nice bonus. Some of the best summer days for me are spent poolside with friends.

If the pool is in good shape and you'll enjoy it - leave it. If it needs a lot of work and you don't want the long-term costs & maintenance, fill it in.

Well, do you like pools?

Interesting. As a 26M I've been having a great experience lately.

How dense do you have to be to find that confusing? Rotate that image 180 degrees and the paint stripes are also clearly visible.

There's also a sidewalk 2 or 3 feet from the right travel lane. Just slow down.

OP, there's absolutely no reason to even bother contesting this one, if you're talking about the same image.

They are pretty miserable about that one. I got a photo ticket there once and was pretty damn sure I was not speeding, I carefully scrutinized the pictures they provided and showed them on an aerial photo the exact position of my car on the aerial photo before and after with the measured distance and used the timestamp before and after to calculate speed and it absolutely PROVED I was in fact not speeding and they still refused it.

Great cafe suggestion. Even closer to them is Buna Coffeehouse, which is also awesome. Slight modification is that the east side of Georgia at that latitude is Petworth, not Brightwood.

Your link makes it look super obvious that the speed limit is 25, and not at all like they’re trying to purposefully confuse drivers.

I just looked at a place that filled it in and built deck over it, looked good

What condition is the pool in?

Where I was confused was regarding the Real ID requirements, in addition to the usual things. I brought everything (except my SS card the second time), but then was told I didn't need them when I got there, or didn't need to be there in person

Sorry, you're right. I guess I was thinking of all the times when it was that way before that I'd get on a yellow train without thinking and end up having to get off at Mt V Square and wait for green. Effectively three trains there. :) It just doesn't make sense to me that they're talking about reducing intervals, but for all of us who live north of downtown it would mean just the opposite.

Depends on what level. Starting pay vs longevity vs education vs certification. For me, it would be 5k less.

Also the O street mansion is pretty cool. It's a little pricier but the hidden doors and secret rooms to explore would have blown my mind as a kid.

DCPS teachers make more than anyone in surrounding counties… or at least that’s what Mendelson said the other night…

Lexicon Lane costs extra but it was definitely worth it! It's like a linguistics escape room! Full of puzzles and mysteries and clues
