    Did anyone do this counterfactual scenarios IMC Lab hit? Is it as terrible as it sounds?

    But that line doesn't stop them from firing you. Opinions aren't a protected class for at-will employment in the US, so you need something else saving you beyond a line in a Twitter bio.

    True, true. Every time I go is during daytime and I always stay in the areas near the falls. Is the Hard Rock still there? Haven't been in a few years.

    My sister's name is Brooke so I guess I'm cool with River. I think society is full of shit so I wouldn't care if I had an interesting name, but I guess I'd just name the kid Susan River so they could choose if they wanted a badass name or a boring as fuck name.

    I remember my sister told us all the places around the area to avoid when she lived up there, it's always been a bit sketch in certain parts.

    My sister lived in Lockport for years LOL.

    I'm not in NY. My in-laws are. Just back from a nice long trip there.

    Yep, Hard Rock is still there. Too many people. We just went to Olive Garden (yes, they have new stuff out by the airport, including Starbucks and an Olive Garden! LOL)

    Niagara Falls Pro-Tip. Go slightly off season, get a groupon. You can get an amazing room and they'll just throw free shit at you.

    True, but it's what most organizations ask you to put in your profile now. For many, it's not something they just come up with on their own, but a suggestion made to them if they are on social media. But nothing prevents them from firing you if they think its warranted.

    They may have to have it there because of where they work or a contractual obligation they have though.

    I was the token yankee last night. One lady's stepson was visiting from Brooklyn and they legit shoved me towards him to showcase the fact hip, young folks are in the town now. Joke's on them, I'm not hip and I immediately mocked the fact he was living in hipster AF greenpoint.

    HA! My husband is from North Tonawanda, and can't stand Lockport. Couldn't understand why until I got turned around there once. It just feels creepy.
