SMART

city

:thinking:

Seems like a pretty small budget for the largest SMART city. It cost more than that to expand 20 miles of highway in my area.

Isn’t 250k total comp pretty garbage for a good engineer?

Get ready for some BBQ!

I would like to know more about how a person could total their car on the way to work and still arrive on time.

I think we (management) make it as easy as we can on ya’ll.

Straight to jail imo.

This part of the story seems 100% fake, at the very least
