\\nIn this week\'s John Riley Project, we discuss the proposed Raising Canes on Poway Rd, the plans for the San Marcos Bike Park, a teacher quitting her job and making 50% more at Costco, Steve Garvey running for Senate, and Biden\'s War on Junk Fees.
\\n
\\n
\\n
\\nIt\\u2019s Wednesday, October 11, 2023. Here\\u2019s what John Riley thinks:

\\n
\\nPoway Raising Cane over Raising Canes Chicken Restaurant
\\n
\\n
\\n
\\nThe Poway City Council gave their thumbs up to a chicken restaurant replacing a vacant lot. Some Poway locals are upset. They say it makes Poway less walkable and encourages more carbon emissions. Will these people ever be happy? Who should decide what gets built on private property?

\\n
\\n
\\n
\\nSan Marcos Bike Park
\\n
\\n
\\n
\\nGreat move by San Marcos to transform an empty lot in a city park into a bike park with berms and jumps for riders of all skill levels.

\\nTeacher Quits Job to Work at Costco, Make 50% More
\\n
\\n
\\n
\\nA teacher was unfulfilled in her job and still feeling stress from teaching through the pandemic. She decided she had enough and went to work at Costco. Now she makes 50% more than she did as a teacher. Why don\\u2019t teachers make more money? Should you seek fulfillment from your job?

\\n
\\n
\\nSteve Garvey Makes it Official. He\\u2019s Running for Senate in CA.
\\n
\\n
\\n
\\nThe Garv is officially getting into politics. Does a Republican have a chance in California? I doubt it. But it\\u2019s interesting to me when sports and politics intersect.

\\nPresident Biden and FTC to Crack Down on Junk Fees
\\n
\\n
\\n
\\nWho likes junk fees? You know, those extra \\u201cconvenience fees\\u201d that are added to your price for concert tickets, sporting events, hotel rooms and rental cars. Biden and the FTC want to make junk fees illegal. But isn\\u2019t the government the worst offender?

\\n
\\n

\\n* Should I think unions for my lunch break? Or do I decide?
