You can work like at least 20 hours a week I think and still qualify for insurance that will cover IVF and other fertility treatments. My fertility doctor said they cover 3 rounds of IVF (one round costs about 20k).


That’s kinda brilliant in a sick way. Nothing cucks a person to a job like having to pay for kids

Didn’t the city take the mall, but the anchors wanted no part of it?


Yes, one way or the other. Either the city has the main building and not the anchors or the other way around. I don’t remember.

t's a decent idea if they can retrofit that building cheaper than building a new one


Its a great idea, and like most posters noted, these 70's 80's era malls were located in area that were easy to access from the surrounding city, or built on the outside of town with hwy access and have now been surrounded by the city.

Now the question is will Wal-Mart start buying up empty malls to keep Amazon from buying them and placing 500K to 1MM distribution centers in every mid-size city in the country.

Pretty incredible. My wife should have worked there part time just to get that. Also one round also depends on the amount of eggs extracted so you may get 3 tries with one round if you get 6 good eggs and put 2 in each time. The extraction procedure is what cost the most. When they put the fertilized eggs back in it's nothing.

What is crazy about the ownership issue is that, I learned this because of the St. George Issue with Mall of Louisiana. Didn’t the city take the mall, but the anchors wanted no part of it?


No. The entire mall petitioned for annexation, but only 2 anchors were congruent, so they were annexed. Then the rest of the mall was annexed.

Go look at a city map.
About half the Mall was annexed.
If memory serves most of the out parcels were not annexed and none of the anchor stores were.

Google map of BR City Limits
Br.gov has a good map

Anytime an employee wants to take off work to get in debt let them. A man in debt will work hard for you.

I guess cortana will be packed this weekend with genxers reminiscing about the 80s.
