“So, when are we having mouse/bird/chipmunk/squirrel and every other living creature hunt(s) that walk/fly the wooded areas since they ALL carry ticks?

“Nice comment Biff, you try going to a job for two years without a raise. I am not a town nurse but it sucks. These nurses can easily go to another town job OR a hospital and probably get their deserved raise or be paid more.” – 

“Public sector employees often take these jobs because of the benefits, not because of the salary. Many of these municipal jobs would pay far more for comparable work done in the private sector, without the benefits. So until these people make comparable private sector salaries, quit complaining about what they have that you don't. Many are tax payers in town too!” –
