Ohio Griping
I've been meaning to post my impressions of Ohio...
1: job fairs make me *laugh*. The amount of vendors offering jobs is *nothing*. Maybe I'm use to DC area job fairs....but 10-20 vendors....really small.
Not to mention, that one job fair was held at a basketball center, and they had a corner of the concession stand ring... Like...a mcdonald's restaurant in a walmart.
2: Ohio drivers are end of ramp mergers. Their ramps are built slightly different then DC's. DC, tends to have long prep part and a long merge part. If there's not space for a long merge part, no problem it extends in an exit ramp for the next exit.
Ohio tends to have a long prep part, but short merge space. Meaning, you better check and plan your spot, cause you ain't passing on the merge part.
Not to mention the larger flow ramps, where there's two lane ramp. This is the weird part. Again, DC for a two lane merge ramp, the right lane merges into the left, and that ramp merges with traffic.
OHIO, OTHO, the left merge lane merges with traffic and the right lane is a legitimate lane for a bit.
3: A couple of grocery stories I've been in expect people to turn to the left, first. Double entrances don't count, I realize they have a tough situation. But It's hard on me to consider to go left into the produce and loop counterclock wise to get to the aisle's I'm there for. (cookie aisle, of course)
4: Tho, I managed to find a couple of radio stations.
5: which reminds me, Dayton area news picks odd stories to mention. I guess DC spoiled me in that area.
6: The next Ward book is coming to the end of this month. The black dagger series. I really look forward to it, and *REALLY* wish for a paycheck so I can justify buying it more easily to get it. I was a bit disappointed with the Butch focused book, but I have high hopes for the Vischous perking the series back up.
PS: The nutter center. *snickers*
