inPro tip: blew $200 on a resume review service in Chicago and it was the biggest waste of my job hunt
Wait, TWO HUNDRED DOLLARS? For someone to look at a piece of paper and tell you to add more action verbs? That's wild. I gotta know what they actually did for that price, because it better have come with a job offer attached.

inThat week in 2013 when three different people in my town swore the water tower was a mind control antenna
My aunt in Butler County swore the new 5G poles going up in 2020 were gonna fry the birds, and she had a whole folder of printouts about it. Never mind that the poles sat there for two years and the birds kept right on landing on them. I read somewhere that conspiracies like that spike when people feel like stuff is happening to them that they didnt get a say in. The water tower, the smart meters, the cell tower, its all the same thing, something changed and nobody asked us first. Painting over it is honestly the most small town fix ever, just cover the scary thing with beige paint and call it handled.

inFinished a kitchen install without a single Blum hinge and it worked out
Humidity is the real killer for sure. Lived in a place in the Midwest where it went from swampy in summer to bone dry in winter, and the cheap hinges on my closet doors got loose and squeaky within a year, while the nicer ones on the front door were totally fine. Denver is pretty dry most of the year, so you can probably get away with cheaper stuff a lot longer than someone in, say, Houston or Atlanta. Just watch out during the spring and summer storms when it actually does get humid for a few weeks, that's when cheap metal tends to act up.
