I’m 21(M) and I started working at a retirement home when I moved to a new state (I work in dining). I really grew attached to this one resident who I would see every day, and we frequently made inside jokes and conversations. I would even spend time outside of work visiting her. I’ve been working in retirement homes since I was 16 and this has probably been the most difficult death I have had to experience so far. I really love all of the residents I encounter daily but we were very close friends. It was hard moving to a place where I had no family and she was like a grandma to me, in a way. Would it be appropriate to attend the funeral, or would it be considered unprofessional?

How do I fix this? Love the shoes but the insole has holes in them. Does adidas sell replacements?

2020 NMS. Car started pulling to the right at like 46,000 miles, got it fixed with an alignment. It was great for a while and now it’s pulling to the right again. I heard this is a common issue, what’s the appropriate course of action here? Is it just a crappy alignment? I have a warranty on the alignment but if it’s something else I’d like to know if anyone has experienced. Control arms were inspected recently and they looked fine. I’m stumped and frustrated.

Edit: alignment done at NTB/Mavis

Hi, I just drove an Elantra N today in West Virginia on a whim and I have to be honest, it completely exceeded my expectations. That car has a terrific personality and it felt incredible to drive. It is aggressive and raucous in a very pleasing way. It’s the perfect mix of comfort when you need it and sportiness. I was wrong to underestimate Hyundai’s ability to build a sports car, and 37k is a steal for what it is.

I usually keep my cars for a long time. I drive 20,000 miles a year and I am very big on doing maintenance myself (when warranty is up). What is your long term experience like for those who use it as a daily driver? Any reliability concerns/reactions from other people? I’m a little worried that the styling is a bit much (I looked at a blue one with red trim all around it). What do y’all think?

I’m not talking about the areas where there are lots of pedestrians (that is understandable), I’m talking about the larger roads and more car dependent areas. For some reason people here accelerate very very slowly everywhere you go, especially when a red light turns green. One time I was on Van Voorhis coming up from 705 and it took a driver in front of me 0.3 miles to accelerate to the 30mph speed limit. People also slam on their brakes for no reason all the time, which is really unnerving. There is no need for that when you aren’t even going the speed limit.

What really gets me is when people have the nerve to merge onto the interstate at 40mph when there is traffic blazing past at 80. That is extremely dangerous behavior, especially because some exits have really short merge areas. On-ramps are the most appropriate time to give it some gas.

We also need to stop using high beams in city limits. Most streets have street lamps and there are people in those houses that are trying to sleep at night. West Virginia Code §17C-15-21 also mandates that you dim your lights when a car is coming and not use your brights when you are less than 200 feet behind the car in front of you.

Edit: I didn’t bring up people making left or right turns very slowly, don’t lollygag in the middle of an intersection! Lol. Also nice to see how friendly our townspeople are in the comments! Bless your hearts.
