    Im uncomfortable in Burnsville (i dont make enough money to fit in) :)


    But in all reality, north mpls is pretty ####, downtown is going south... but the real problem is population over growth. Its alot busier than 15 years ago, and with nearly 30 percent of ths population being new or near new transplants, its a shift in culture and were struggling to adapt

    I guess I'm lucky that my sister does make enough.
    She can't save much living there, and I could not afford it at all. But she does have a knack for finding nice places to live.

    But Leann is uncomfortable for different reasons.
    For whatever reason, it seems to be just the feel of the area.
    Like evil is just around the corner.

    Really!

    How about the Eastern Europeans who work under the European hos rules, are they incapable of understanding how our simple system works?

    If the guy has a language issue, then he should not be on the roads as a truck driver. If he is having issues with understanding basic info that we all work by, how does one expect him to understand complicated instructions from a shipper or directions that would mess up a cartograph?

    Sorry to be a *** about it but we do have a requirement for understanding and writing English and we shouldn't lower the standards just to fill a seat, it hurts all of us and especially the guy who doesn't understand our language.

    Maybe its because i was born and raised here, maybe its just the neighborhood, dont know.. im west of the cities but still in the 494 loop. Grew up in South mpls. There are plenty of places around town that have me on high alert, head on a swivel type feeling.. but b ville has never been one.
