I was a CNA for a couple years, then got my MA, did that for awhile and ended up with awful burnout that lead to the worst anxiety I’ve ever had in my life. Took 6 months off to get back on medication and focus on self care. Currently now a waitress and would never look back.

Geez, what a Debbie-Downer comment to kill the beauty of this thread. Are you from away?

OP stated the model year is 1997 and the seller does not have a title.
The statute you cited is therefore not relevant to his situation.
It is possible to obtain title to a vehicle through a bonded title process. This is actually less onerous than it sounds for most used vehicles.

Read again - "Title, if the vehicle is model year 1995 or newer"

Just FYI: big sign by the Bath bridge saying Reid State Park is closed.

OP, look up "bonded titles". You will probably have to put up some money for a bond unless the car is a total junker.

Take the bill of sale to your town office to register the vehicle. Because it is so old you don’t need a title, one will be issued in ME.

OP says he doesn't have a title, and the vehicle is newer than 95, so your Google fu has failed you this time guygan

This.
I called and asked them to match the fiber rate….sorry, you’ve got the best rate we currently offer. Ok, I’m going to cancel. Got transferred to the cancelation department and within a minute, my price was reduced to match the fiber price. I’m calling again next week to ask them to match the fiber speed.

You can call Spectrum and threaten to cancel and they will lower your bill. I’m locked in at $55 for a year and they doubled my speed for 3 years (also for free)

Bangor’s not on the coast, so my hypothesis still applies. Also, as a resident of Bangtown, I can confidently say that we’re not a prime destination for former Manhattanites.

I know many ICU and telemetry nurses who successfully transitioned to endoscopy and pacu. They love it. Much more laid back, reasonable hours, etc. I myself went from acute care 5 to 1 tele and IMC work to school nursing. Pay cut, yes. But insurance and retirement make that up in spades. I get 10 weeks off every summer. I travel, camp, etc and have the same schedule as the rest of my family. Be creative in your thoughts. There are many less glamorous jobs out there that pay well. Perhaps phone triage or telemedicine or home based case management. Perhaps step away then look. If it all goes to hell you can always travel work which will make up any deficit. Good luck.

Not sure what you necessarily mean by “central-ish” or if you have interest in working with migrants or refugees, but if you’ll be near Augusta you could check out the Capital Area New Mainers Project or Somali Bantu Community Associationif you’re gonna be near L/A.

You have a "live laugh love" poster in your home and don't understand why that is an insult
