What can y'all tell me about this general area?

Hey y'all, I'm currently living over in Grand Rapids, have been looking for a home to purchase and recently started expanding my search to include Muskegon area as well, but I don't really know much about the area, what to expect, what kind of neighborhoods they are, etc.

I'm hoping to find one of those "quiet, good place to raise a family" type neighborhoods, even though I'm a single, introverted, child-free, professional individual not looking to raise a family. Thanks for any feedback you can give!

Farm Stand - Local Eggs

I’m looking for farm stands with eggs in particular. We never manage to get to the Farmers markets on Saturday mornings unfortunately. And would like another source. We’re newer to the area.

I’d appreciate any recommendations! Thank you!

833 Olive St Bloomington IN??????

Long shot here, but the other day on the radio the DJ (I don't know the station or DJ) mentioned having a "vision" (or something) about visiting 833 Olive St in Bloomington, IN.
Does anyone know what station and/or what DJ this was. I'd be interested in contacting him...

Egg Roll House WTF?!?!

Just ordered takeout from what used to be Egg Roll House and it’s not at all like what it used to be. That whole “we’re just adding a few Thai dishes to the current menu” was a lie. 😫😫😫😫 A Muskegon institution has died. RIP Egg Roll House

Under the new plan, a daily parking pass for non-residents would cost $20 on Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays, $10 on Mondays, Tuesdays and Thursdays, and passes would be free on Wednesdays. The plan also calls for people to be able buy a season pass for $40. Muskegon residents will still get free beach parking passes.

Does anybody know a place in Muskegon where they basically hire anyone?

I'm 30 and I have limited work experience due to disability. I apply for jobs and I rarely get called back. I'm autistic. I have an art degree, but I don't get nearly enough work to even scrape by and I'm tired of living with my parents. I don't know how to drive, I never had money for driver's training and my parents bitched about me wanting to learn how to drive when I was younger because of car insurance reasons. Lots of jobs require you to have a driver's license and sometimes your own car.

I have joint inflammation in my hips sometimes and I have ulcerative colitis, and it would be nice to get a job that is light on physical labor and I can go to the bathroom whenever. I'm immunocompromised because of my medication, and the fewer people I have to work with in a small space, the better.

It's not that I don't want to work or I'm lazy, nobody wants to hire me because of my inexperience and disabilities. It's so painful to be this old and not living an independent life. I really need help.

I'm in a work rehabilitation program, I don't know what that is going to get me. I'm really intelligent and I can read at a normal adult level and I'm insanely good at organizing stuff and being helpful, I'm just a little autistic.

Trinity and Aetna

Is anyone else anxiously awaiting the outcome of the current negotiations between Aetna and Trinity Health?

I’d been holding out hope until today that they would come to an agreement but the latest email from Trinity didn’t inspire much confidence.

I’ve spent most of the day trying to find a primary care doctor accepting both new patients and Aetna and I’ve managed to find 2 within an hour drive.

Are there any places that I can donate Christmas gifts to older children in Muskegon

We would like to help out song older children who would probably get passed by for the younger kids. Where would be a good resource to find a place locally? Thanks

What do you wish they taught you in school?

Everyone has different experiences in their education journey. What are some things that you wish you were taught in middle or high school? I always remember people saying they wish they learned how to do taxes.

Does it matter where I go to college?

Hey all,

I tried to ask this in the Michigan subreddit, but it got taken down. I'm trying to figure out whether I should keep attending my current college or not.

I began taking college classes at American Military University while I was still active duty. I'm about halfway through my bachelor's degree in supply chain management right now. I'd like to finish my degree, but I don't know how well employers will take a degree that says "American Military University" on it. Maybe they will see it as a faux degree. Should I cut the loss and transfer to an in-state college or just continue pursuing my degree at AMU?

Frozen Turkey 50 Cents per Pound at Meijer on Harvey

I just bought two tonight. It is the Meijer brand, but I've baked them before. They were good. They come in different sizes. I almost forgot. They have 5lbs bags of russet potatoes for 99 cents too. If I find any more good deals, I'll share them with you all.
