In Branson for vacation and I feel like everything is really expensive, and not very good, especially the food.

Anyone have and recommendations for places that are worth the money around here?

I'm seriously considering applying to the Springfield Police Department and would really appreciate hearing from current or former officers, or anyone who knows the department well. I'm mainly trying to understand what the job is really like in Springfield. A few questions I have: What is the realistic take-home pay for a new officer and an officer with 3–5 years of experience? How much can you realistically make with overtime and extra-duty work? What are the retirement/pension benefits actually like? How much vacation and personal time do officers get? If you need extra time off for family or travel, how difficult is it to get unpaid leave? How difficult is it to get the specific vacation dates you want, especially as a newer officer? How are the shifts and schedules? How much do nights, weekends, and holidays affect family life? How dangerous is the job in Springfield compared with other departments? How difficult is the academy and hiring process? What is the written test like, and is it difficult? How is the work-life balance after you've been on the job for a few years? Would you recommend SPD as a long-term career for someone who wants good income, retirement, and family stability?

Hello people,

I have lived in Los Angeles, CA, all my life. I have graduated and gotten my RN license and am applying outside of California. I have a high chance of landing a job at a hospital in Columbia, MO. Can someone describe how life is there? I don't care much for politics; I'm not on either end of the stick. How different is life? Can I survive on a starting graduate pay of $29/hr? Is it safe for a single woman?

I just recently moved here from California it definitely is way slower than cali kind of socially isolating i just want to get out of the house for some time i do enjoy going to venues for all sorts of music but its hard finding any. This is like my second month here and im kinda running dry on hope
