To be fair though, a consulting firm whose business is looking into businesses would be a beautiful cover for an intelligence agent. Not saying it is the case, but it is reasonable to assume that an authoritarian government may see it as a possibility.

I'm sure they exist in AZ, but I lived in Phoenix for 4 years and never saw a mosquito.

It is not a problem, until it is a problem.
If you catch a cop at the wrong time, or you piss them off, a front plate becomes a ticket.
But for the most part it is overlooked.

(years ago)One of the new "security guards" posted at a school got caught by IT looking at porn on his laptop. His position was at the main entrance. He would scan IDs of visitors an essentially man the door. A parent saw it on the screen as they walked by. I was tasked with "documenting" the computer. That was a wonderful dive into someone's sexual life....on a work machine.

I worked in the next school district over from Newtown. It is a very wealthy district and the money they spent on security after that was insane. I am sure security contractors were cashing in on it heavily.

Well they may as well blow the budget on that. They obviously aren't going to spend it on teacher salaries, books, school lunches or anything else that would benefit the kids.

Honestly I should have said 26 inches. That is the higher end estimate that I see in the northwest corner.

Anywhere from 0 to 10 inches of rain or snow; possibly sunshine, fog is likely and a chance of clouds.
Edit: I was right!

You can't go into it expecting the worst. This is Connecticut. Not rural Kentucky. Go in, ask for what you want, in a way that says "I'm here paying for your services" and either they are going to say, here's your chair (nearly 95 percent likely) or there's the door, which again, were in CT.
And if they are the kind of asshole that would refuse your business, tell them you wouldn't let those hack jobs touch your fabulous nails and walk out like a boss

Was the shake that is in the video a wave of the earthquake or the shaking as the building fell?

Reply to A toilet blown to pieces by Iwannasexdiofrfrogog
An odd nightmare situation would be sitting on a toilet that may be cracked or something and you fall as it crumbles. I remembered hearing a story once about someone it happened to and as they fell the porcelain sliced arteries in their legs. As I recall there was a picture of the stall aftermath to go with it but I cannot find it.

Check out TriWire Engineering in Newtown. I did not have a record myself, but my boss there was pretty understanding about people who had past convictions. (i cannot say for certain it is still the case, this was in 2009ish)
