Easier said than done. Half the city was ready to crucify Mariano for suggesting people work if they were going to use public resources.

Sometimes speaking the truth will make you sound like a jerk, but wasting resources and enabling people isn't exactly the way to go either

So are the thousands of people renting and struggling to make ends meet.

Sweet! More stuff for people who contribute 0 in taxes and stand on corners making the city look like crap!

When I lived in Worcester it was in Quinsigamond village. A lot of older families, young pros, and a really cool African immigrant community. I loved my time there. Super friendly, safe, best access to the pike in the city.

It sucks, but you save a ton of money.

• the new MB slogan

Please spend this money on new bin tops for the recycling containers

I would highly recommend you contact Clark's public safety dept for more information on the area and what they can offer you coming or going at night in the area if that is a necessity. The area is kind of a mix. If you have reliable transportation there are several other areas of the city that are nicer.

Everyone should go out and get new zip ties for the shit bins

Yeah, a lot of Webster sucks but the multi-million dollar mansions help a bit with tax revenue

I'm curious what they did at the Worcester plant at the southwest cut off. Growing up that place stunk to high heaven. They overhauled it in some way and it's actually liveable over there now.

They have the nicest employee shuffle board court in the state

Fair but there are things to be done in Worcester. I can't think of a single thing to do in Southbridge unless it involves drugs or pounding some hoodrat.

My dog is 60lbs. And we play a game called struggle snuggle. Basically I hold him and tell him that he's my world and daddy's precious little man while he looks uninterested.

Lol, you should call adult protective services. Living in a biohazard has to constitute some kind of thing that they can do.

Choose again. The highway access blows and the natives are poor and trashy

That was one of the wildest threads on here. I'm not sure if that guy had ever left the city. I'm glad you remember that one.

I used to live on the less wooded side of college hill and it gets to be very windy out in the open extremely often. The amount of trash blowing around that hill on a Friday afternoon before the trucks came was a disgrace.

This reminds me of a complaint in this sub about a year ago where somebody was complaining about the fact that trash juice leaks out of the city trash trucks and some dude was ready to defend to the death that there was nothing that could be done about said trash juice. Absolutely ready to fight anyone who dared to say trash juice isn't something that happens everywhere to everyone. Some people have gaslit themselves into loving Worcester's awful public services.

ETA: the trash service is great in that if I ever need to get rid of some non kosher shit like lead, or electronics I just tape a bag to it and leave it someplace where the trucks will find it and then the city gets to decide what to do with it since they waste my tax dollars on shit like homeless daycare and running bus routes with annual ridership in the low teens.

Jk my dude... but that's news to me

You're not supposed to tell anyone about that one

The city's trash people are generally world class dicks. They used to skip my road on holiday weeks so they could finish on time.

I wish they'd open one for poor people doing their 35th re registration of the year on a 15 year old vehicle

I second this. The Southbridge branch has always been a much better trip than Worcester

If you're looking for a quiet suburban feel you're going to want to rent West of Park Avenue. I'd stay off the middle and main south neighborhoods due to population density and street parking.

Super glad tax money is going to this fascist shit
