Came over to mothership HQ for work and boy am I impressed! The streets are actually clean, there are trees everywhere, I'm yet to encounter a homeless person, heck even the buses are clean here...
Homeless people in exist in Bellevue/Kirkland, but most of them are in Seattle
It’s not just you, it’s also Gates and Bezos. Haven’t seen homeless in Kirkland. Saw a few in Bellevue downtown once.
I don’t think Bellevue/Kirkland reward homelessness like Seattle or the Bay Area does. We shouldn’t act surprised when incentivized behavior increases.
Seattle is worse than Bellevue / Kirkland. But still way better than SFO
Comparing to the airport? FYI, the city is SF
The number of times people use the airport code is too damn high! *insert meme*
Don’t forget the privilege of not donating 10% of your pay to a government that sux at providing services
How do property taxes between the BA and Seattle compare? How about sales tax, gas tax and others? Are you really saving that %10 or is the government taking it some way other than income tax?
Sales tax 10%, property tax around 1% but reassessed every year at market rate, gas is a little cheaper than CA
Also so much greenery in and around Bellevue / Kirkland. Bay Area all you can see is ppl and food
The answer is rain. Rains clean shit off the street.
Bellevue, Kirkland, and Redmond are all real nice. We don’t tolerate lawlessness the same way they do in Seattle. Recently, I saw someone starting to setup camp near my neighborhood. I called the police. Never saw them again. I don’t know what they do, and the west coast has drained my empathy to the point that I don’t care.
Bayarea vs Seattle is like the Ronaldo vs Messi threads. It just keeps going on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on

Worried that our top performer is an attrition risk. How do managers handle this?
Don't go to Seattle's side of the lake.
