Than working late in an office building with a Thai restaurant on the first floor is when the restaurant has online ordering 😀
So there are some advantages to city living! This town has no thai restaurants and NO pizza place that delivers to my home/office.
Not often I am jealous of a city guy.
Enjoy your night!

Yeah, but you can go to the Fieldsport gun room and drool over the vintage side by sides
Meanwhile the rest of the world can barely visualize such a situation being possible. The closest I can relate to that goes back to about the last year of my employment at one place where a new office building was constructed for us which included a cafeteria. It was on the lowest level, putting it directly beneath my little cubicle/lab rat maze workspace. About 10:00 a.m. or so you could go there and get snacks of what would be the main offerings at lunch time. It was usually almost quitting time before they closed completely. They had a nice variety of offerings, but, I don't remember Thai food being a regular item on the menu.

Our idea of serious traffic is when you have to wait your turn behind one other vehicle at a four-way stop.

50 miles each way from the office to home. An hour in the morning and 90 minutes in the evening. 🙁
Never underestimate what a man will endure for inexpensive health insurance and a 6% 401K match 😉

You need to get one of those cars like they show in a current TV commercial that blows the doors off of every other car on the road.
An hour in the morning would get me about 65 miles. Ninety minutes in the evening would get me a bit more than 100 miles. "Stop signs? What stop signs? We don't need no stinkin' stop signs." As for stop lights......what stop lights?????
I could make it from here to downtown KCMO without hitting a stop light and the only stop sign would be the one a mile and a half from my house. The first 35 miles would be at 65 MPH plus except for a short stretch, the remainder would be at 75-80 MPH or more.
calling #3 son around the time for end of school bell and telling him to stop at Chicken Express for a box of hot wings and a gallon of sweet tea.....

I get that same deal plus they put in a 4% discretionary lump sum every April. I am up to almost 9% with my contributions on the yearly auto-increase. Oh to know back then what I know now.. I turned down a position here in 1997 for what I interpreted as a much better job that only amounted to about a buck an hour more :-$
To quote the famous French Writer François de La Rochefoucauld-
"Old people love to give good advice to console themselves for no longer being able to set a bad example."
