A list of puns related to "Linguistic Atlas of the Upper Midwest"
Help, Iβm trying to figure out if a job I might apply to should pay more.
-hospital employee -Full time, about 50 hour week (includes call) Covering everything on the adult side too. 100% supervisor -about 8 weeks vacation Medical, dental, malpractice, all paid
What do you think this should pay? 500k? 600k?
Bringing this up because it reminded me of the Missing 411 series.

>What they found almost six months later after some hard-won police work and snowmobile tracking was a south-facing slope that Williams felt good about. He told the News Tribune heβd have wanted the same cover from the north wind had he been winter camping.
>
>The men followed the slope on foot right into Griderβs camp in April 2019.
>
>βItβs in a super-remote place,β Williams said. βIf you were looking for a spot to avoid contact with people, he really did find it.β
>
>βWe were kind of just taking it in, myself and the agent, a visual inventory,β Williams said. βWe noticed a large amount of blood everywhere.β
>
>Williams took stock of the makeshift tent β a hammock slung under a green tarp which hung over a guy-wire. He also found a 9-millimeter Beretta pistol in the hammock with two loaded magazines outside of the gun.
>
>A line in the St. Louis County Sheriffβs Office report described βa large amount of blood inside the hammock and sleeping bag.β
>
>There were signs of wolves at the campsite, too β both footprints and scat, Williams recalled.
>
>The official report about the initial search of the campsite underscored what the two men failed to locate: βGrider was not found.β

For context - the Boundary Waters are an extremely remote region similar to the Florida everglades, and being from the region I've heard a lot of people tell stories of Bigfoot and other strange creatures. I don't personally believe them but some of the disappearances up there really make me wonder...
Odds are it was a Wolf attack, but the lack of any trace of his body is what sets this story apart. Maybe predators and scavengers picked the corpse apart and scattered it but considering this happened so recently you'd think there would be a trace of him.
CORRECTION: The "all but" should not be in the post's header. Thanks for the correction from Dunbarato below.* Truth is, by the time they enter the ICU, they tend to know it's the end.
It's as if the patients quickly discover that god-belief is complete bullshit once they're on a ventilator.
But the follow-up to this observation is that they don't tell their families that they don't believe anymore, perhaps allowing them to continue in their delusions.
PS: DO NOT fuck with Covid. The Delta variant is almost 10 times more infectious than the Alpha variant. It incubates for four days, and once you are placed in the intensive care unit, you have a 2% chance of living. But you will be dead with 7-21 days.
Cold weather is just around the corner here in Minnesota. I have an outside kid, and I'm wondering what I should know about dressing her for the weather. What do you put your kids in? How do you get them to stop taking off their hats and mittens? Is there a temperature where you stop taking them outside to play?
Edit: my husband wants me to add that I did not see snow until I was 18. This is uncharted territory for me.
