Bangor ain't nothing to write home about. Much of the rest of Maine is wonderful though.

If it makes you feel any better we moved from Maine before winter. Based on our rate of consumption and the price of heating oil our heating bill would have been around $4000 for the winter.

"no one wants to work anymore!!!!"

No one ever did that's why they have to pay you for it. Work is a necessity for all but a few to meet their daily or future needs that's it. Even people who think saying they work a 60 hour week is a flex won't do their current job for free if they didn't need money.

Granted I'm sure there are people who work in a field they love but for most people they didn't grow up with dreams and aspirations of being an Accounts Receivable Specialist, or Contact Center Manager growing up.
