Lol, isn't everyone in NY metro?
Less and less. Freelancer electricians will continue in the foreseeable future.

Stores I went to still offered to remove the sales tax if I pay cash.
FWIW, I pay electricians/plumbers here with my cc, so I guess https://forums.dansdeals.com/index.php?topic=21675

I think that thread needs a short link already, like DansDeals.com/Cons. (Yes, specifically not "/Pros"  :P )

The pro for the electrician would be in NYC in this case.

That will change if they start getting 1099s for Zelle.
I've been waiting over 5 years with bated breath for someone to say that!

Workflowy. You won't know what you're missing until you try it.

Developers like this end up producing "masterpieces" like the one below, does the job until a little piece breaks or needs to be changed, and it's a nightmare for the entire team:

Advertising magazine arrived at my door this morning with the above image as a full-page ad. Screenshot taken from the website (not the only image there). Need I comment?

When your 401k balance reads like a Walmart price tag (actual figure truncated on left for obvious reasons).

I wouldn't even call it that. I am not a foodie, but would ANYONE be enticed to go to a "steakhouse" that puts this image front and center of their ad?

Only worse image I can think of for a stakehouse is a well-done (aka double slaughtered) steak with French fries on the side (that have that frozen fries look).

But the Diet Coke/S. Pellegrino/Baron Herzog is also more expensive at the high end restaurant. At the end of the day consumers make this choice by deciding which restaurant/supermarket to patronize.
