Those look like some dope ass apartments. Just what burlington needed!

Until air bnb/vrbo is capped or banned, ski towns will die

Haha underrated comment

It was historically a red state, for sure. Finding dems then would be like finding the town of Pinetree now

Edit: wording, bad joke, etc

Childhood germ factory combined with years of mask use, sanitization and remote learning limiting overall exposure to germs playing a role, possibly? Not saying remote should not have happened, just that this shit is a possible consequence.

Yep, test again and get well!

The schools I’ve been working with have been getting clapped with a sickness that has all the symptoms of covid, but people do not test positive. Perhaps covid isn’t running amok, just some nasty flu-variant

Antidotally or anecdotally?

This is the way.

I work in schools and would recommend looking at switching to SpEd, if you’re at all interested. There is a major need for them in almost every school district and they will often pay for your certification via the provisional licensure process. I recommend this due to the demand and, from what I have seen, higher starting salary levels. SpEd comes with its own challenges, but it seems like a good route to consider, at least temporarily. Many of the special educators I see have what appears like an easy go of it, though I am sure the behind the scenes shit is exhausting. It’s tempting enough for me to consider leaving the ABA track I am currently on.

As for living, get used to a commute, as the cheaper “nice” stuff will be found in more rural or less desirable areas. Still, lots of need in central vermont which is not a bad place to live at all.

I make average teacher pay and do not feel as if I have to sacrifice much other than a commute, as I still have enough to buy the toys I want and do the things I would like to do. I am married tho, so that changes things a bit.

It certainly can be - this sub, that is. I’ve been downvoted for insinuating I like to drive fast

Edit: clarity

Yep, same

Yep, this is me. Open roads, open throttle

Propane, $300ish, 1100 sq ft, temp kept around 61. Last fill was 2 months prior, so it’s probably more like 150+/mo

Are you a bot?

Came here to say this

I’m speaking specifically to housing and rent. Goods and services are probably average. Some places are cheaper than others, especially when compared to cities.

Vermont is dope, but good luck finding anywhere to live without spending lots of money or making sacrifices or both. Commutes can be super long, tourists suck balls, nothing is cheap, few amenities….yet it is still a cool place to live, especially if you like outdoorsy stuff.

There definitely is fake maple syrup and those establishments which use it should be shunned. Otherwise, pretty spot on, especially the bit about beer and cheese, and the biking. Vermont is shifting to a biking paradise, which is awesome (for those who like it, like me).

To reiterate what has already been said, the lease isn’t up so they don’t have to do anything. Maybe they haven’t found an apt to move to? Ask them if they need help and don’t be a dick about it.

Yea, the house had snow on it this christmas.

Lol I know!

Yea, but I want the snow we used to get 20 years ago

Cool

I’m sure they haven’t had to use one of those in a long time because our winters are a joke now 😥

I’d love to bet on sports. Make a few bucks while watching something I love. Sounds awesome
