What do you know about Lumberton?

[Kettle]

Depends on the pay.

Cost of living should be a little less and land really cheap. Just nothing there of significance. Are you Lumbee by chance?

nope. european mongrel.

the recruiter sounded slightly put off when I told him my current rate too, so thats not a good sign. he still sent me the email though so who knows. maybe they are willing to pay.

I got a speeding ticket there on the way to wilmington..the oldass courthouse was soo packed i had to wait outside the main courtroom only to have the judge throw the book at me. I hate that stupid lil hick town

Was his name Judge Alvin "JP" Valkenheiser?

[Murph]

Lots of crime. Poor area heavy with gangs. Lumbees of the area had a bad rap because of high unemployment and aloholism in the past. Not sure if it has gotten any better.

One of my ex in-laws was a Lumbee Indian. She was stupid as poo. So, I'm sure the rest of that town is retarded too.

My friends nephew got married there last month.

They shut the whole town down, fire and police depts included, to celebrate.

My friend, who has been just about everywhere in the southeast, said it was a redneck dump.

I simply asked if you were Lumbee, because if there's a good ole boy network...it starts with being Lumbee.

Education level will not be high in that area that's for sure. But with that, if you have kids, they'll have that much of a jump on the kids in that county to get into UNC or somewhere in-state. Much easier than say, Wake or Orange.

seriously? That is the dumbest thing I have ever seen u type!!

[Kettle]

a kid is on the way, and that is my biggest concern. i've never heard that logic though.

[The Saltman]

Yes pick a school so your kid will be the smartest one there,

State schools pull minimum x number of kids from each county.

You didn't know that? Tax subsidized schools have deals where they pull a minimum from each county...maybe even each high school. Where would you rather compete. Mecklenburg, Wake, or Robeson.

Hey...I'm just trying to give any "good" reason possible to go to the area.

No. The odds are better.

You know what odds are right? Probability? Statistics?

I get what your saying I just didnt find it as a good enough reason. It seems like moving there would be a bad decision.
