Review of Rapid Ci,


Not what is Cracked up to be
Star Rating - 5/27/2018
I am stuck here for now. Grant you the scenery is beautiful and not overly populated. Not a city a town. I can from the East Coast. I live in big cities. This is a right to work state that there should tell you all. It is who you know and brown nose on if you get to advance or keep job. They can fire you just because they don't like your shoes. Hard workers in this state are thrown under the bus for lazy workers. If these workers moved to another big city and not here they would be fired. They are slow, and don't know how to work. Hard workers get to do the lazy ones job, oh and don't speak up because that will get you fired if they are friends or brown nosers of the boss. Wages low, you never get ahead. City more worried about tourist then people who live here. Streets are deplorable unless they lead you to a tourist trap. Housing over priced for shacks. People drive horrible. Don't know how they got their license. Aggressive and worst then major city. They would be dead if they drove like that in a big city. People narrow minded. This city has not moved into the 21 century. Police are nice and helpful compared to other cities. I think South Dakota government corrupt. They don't care about education or special needs. One hospital and that stinks. People with major problems go to denver or minnesota Food high even though wages are low. Gas goes up as soon as tourist come. Jobs don't give 40 hours so no benefits and state won't give you nothing for medical no matter if dying. Rich care about the rich and that is it Crime bad for such a small place. Drunks and druggies rampant. Not safe in a lot of places. Nice parks but don't venture at night. beggars all over. People can be ignorant but not all If you don't mind slave labor and constant struggling than this is place for you. There is some good but mostly bad. Visit and leave Do yourself a favor

I think that this comment is not an accurate account of the city and involves too many personal remarks.

Get a life Karen! No matter the circumstance you will not be happy. Stop blaming everyone else for your problems. You need to learn to be happier. Attitude is everything. Garbage in, garbage out...
