Executive Director at Move Redmond, but this is my personal account
I was working with Mike and @wilsonforseattle.bsky.social on that and honestly my biggest regret about that time was not pushing harder to get it through

And it can be such a good deal to offer a pass for employees! We try to pitch it as an amazing benefit for employees with minimal cost.

I think it could also help to simplify pricing overall for these programs. MR works to get employers to sign up for these programs and if the price structure were simpler I think more businesses would sign up.

I mostly agree with this take, but really small businesses can also get ORCA passport with as few as 5 employees. It would be cool if this policy changed for larger companies but not small businesses.

I also snagged lunch at Pasta Casalinga, one of my very favorite spots for a slightly decadent lunch!

You cleaned out your fridge! Good for you! That is a terrible chore.

Once I saw a short play about the way back of the fridge with some moldy salsa and abandoned leftovers. It was deeply relatable.

Yeah I am glad that Seattle Recreative is a litter farther from my house, but we have artist and craftsman, very close, but requires a walk across I-5.

Buying art supplies is a coping mechanism I have to deal with life’s hardships.

There also appears to be a stuffy explosion as well. Sources have yet to confirm if the incidents are related.

The lunch thing is wild. My daughter refuses to do hot lunch because she doesn’t want to wait in line, she says she won’t have enough time to eat. I was surprised to learn how short lunch and recess are for students.

Grief is wild. It can hit you in small moments going about your day. ❤️
