Sorry. I’m a born in Mass. raised in NH and moving to Maine person who got suggested this.

This isn’t just a Vermont attitude. You see it in all of New England. And in my experience people will bitch but if you’re coming in and being a part of your community. Not trying make it your old neighborhood you’ll be welcome. My wife started a job in mid costal Maine working on a boat. She uses that area like other boat workers do and has had no problem fitting in. I plan to work local business when I get there. HellIf you have new ideas. You will be welcome if you talk to us right. If you come and add too much change too fast, and pretend a local economy doesn’t know how it will be affected you will find people are unhappy. Especially if the prices you bringing push out the local workers.

Things change over time. It’s not reasonable for me to be mad over new things being introduced slowlybut if you’re coming and asking for a system to be changed immediately you need more than “because this is how we handled it here”
