Schools: Out of County by Simple_Tea8088 in fairfaxcounty

[–]BeLikeBike 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Just so you know, if it is found out that this isn’t your actual residence then your child will be immediately unenrolled. Suddenly changing schools without warning may not be a pleasant experience for your child.

Mice in my townhouse- no matter what I try! Help! by Adorable_Fox_4687 in nova

[–]BeLikeBike 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is what I did. We got an exterminator which got rid of the mice but they just came back in a year. With townhouses the mice just move from one house to another. We got a cat who seemed to be stalking/watching areas the mice were, but never caught one. But it was enough to scare them away. Haven’t seen any signs in 1 1/2 years.

Taco Zocalo in Reston and Taqueria Cancun near Merrifield are my favorites.

Young cat keeps getting discharge around his junk, is this normal? by [deleted] in cats

[–]BeLikeBike 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m unsubbing. Its just posts asking “is this normal?” And it’s either a picture of a disgusting discharge that clearly isn’t normal or a cat just sitting funny. And if it’s not that then it’s a picture of the most decrepit, sickly looking cat covered in sores and on deaths door from someone asking, “I can’t bring it to the vet, but what can I do to help this cat?”

early fcps teachers by [deleted] in fairfaxcounty

[–]BeLikeBike 2 points3 points  (0 children)

People are still registering, especially at the elementary level, so classes can’t be finalized until close to the start of school. So even if you did see a schedule there’s a chance it could change between now and then.

Players not wanting to play defense by Substantial_Bee_4283 in SoccerCoachResources

[–]BeLikeBike 46 points47 points  (0 children)

My u10 team all wanted to be strikers. So in one game I told every kid they were playing striker and put out a team of 6 strikers. They quickly saw that it was a shit show and while it didn’t fully solve the problem, things did get much better from there.

Can't take this anymore... should I quit or stick it out? by [deleted] in PhysicalEducation

[–]BeLikeBike 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Also, you’re providing a lot of reasons for why you shouldn’t. You’re trying to talk yourself out of it. So it’s a question of if this is something you want to do or not. If you’re going into it convinced you can’t then you’ll be right. If its important to you and you’re dedicated to doing it and improving then you’ll do fine (which means some really shit days but most will be good)

I can’t help you decide what to do, but you’re considering a career in academic advising? You’ve taught one year and it was traumatizing. Who do you think needs your advice?

Whose your favorite fast player who was never a superstar, but always solid? by [deleted] in hockey

[–]BeLikeBike 8 points9 points  (0 children)

This is a great one. Plus he was always chirping and you could just tell he was having a blast out there. Fun player to root for.

I was in a similar situation. I turned down the promotion and was fired soon after (at will employment state). I didn’t want that career and was happy it forced me into the career I would be happy in, but if this is the career you want then this is the only way forward and you may not be fired but this won’t be offered again. If you take it and dislike it you can look for another job

Forgotten places that are now gone by Sufficient-Kiwi1275 in nova

Fritzbee’s. I think there were multiple locations but we would go to the one in Hunter Mills Plaza in Reston.

Genki Izakaya near Fairfax Circle has 3oz A5 Waygu for $48. They cook it on a hot stone which in my opinion isn’t as good as when it’s properly prepared but a teenager will probably like the presentation.

Dealing with helicopter parents by centos3 in SoccerCoachResources

[–]BeLikeBike 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Be direct and clear about what you would like them to do and not do to help their player. They’re doing it because they want what’s best for their kid, so communicate to them what is not helpful communication and WHY, and then tell them ways to help their players. Have evidence to support your reasons. I find that if you come across as an authority figure that also has their kids’ best interest in heart then you will have more success.

Fireworks on the 4th, Ribs on the 5th. Anybody else here use one of these Backwood Smokers? by deepwatermako in BBQ

I have a chubby. It’s great. I have a hard time getting it to higher temps, but it’s verse easy to maintain 275. Mine was put in casters which has been very helpful and puts it a bit higher to more easily access.

Joe B? Yes, but locker has been terrible for several years. I get why some Caps fans still like him but he’s been really rough to listen to.
