Looks like there was a mass exodus of teachers and staff away from the school. Was only aware when I saw the lengthy list of new teachers. Only one of four 5th grade teachers stayed!
I haven't had a bad experience there as a parent. Some annoyances, for sure, but that's expected anywhere. Any insight on what happened to drive so many away?
I don't mind a bit of a drive! Will be in NE Ocala, also near Top of the World and the Villages. Wherever is fine, just want a place where they do a good job. Pretty basic, just looking for pedicure and shellac mani.
Bonus points if you also know of a good spa or massage place. Doesn't have to be the same as the nail place. I somehow find getting my nails done at a spa is never quite as good as going to the good ol' local strip mall places 😆
Title basically says it all. Looking to replace carpet and three bedrooms. I prefer an established business or a chain, but above all, just want a reasonably-priced and reliable business to do the job. I know, carpet is not cheap, but I really just don't wanna pay $8 million for something that doesn't generally cost $8 million lol
I assume if your hand is raised at this point that you've either recently won the lottery (be careful--don't be THAT person that wins the big one and blows it all...GETTING GROCERIES AT HYVEE), or that you earn a seven
-figure salary with cash to burn. Or you're a die-hard HyVee shopper #4lyfe? I have no idea.
Honestly, if they had to put up flags at one point surrounding the store that said, "new lower prices!" (apparently undetectable to the naked eye), they're fully aware.
I guess I'm just blown away on how they stay in biz. I first noticed the prices were insane upon moving back to the Midwest in 2010, when there weren't all the options we have now for delivery and/or big box stores starting to dabble in the grocery market. With all that in play especially, again I ask--who the eff shops there??? And why??
*end rant, FIN, thank you for coming to my [opposite-of-inspirational] TED talk*
I have an LTD plan that states there is an annual benefit increase that will be the lower of some national index or whatever percentage listed (can't remember the % offhand). I have been on LTD for more than a year, but haven't seen an increase. Of course, I'm afraid to ask about it bc the insurer can be hell to deal with as it is. Do I just let it go and be happy enough that the annual increase clause will boost a payout, if it comes to that?
