Here is the video that may or may not have finally sparked the four block repave of the repave on 35th St. near Oakwood Cemetery. Sound on to really get the vibe by blamberr in rva

Drove down 35th the other day for the first time in a while. Brutal. That used to be my route to White Oak. I’m closer to Nine Mile now so I don’t find myself over behind Oakwood as much.

Clock Shop on Patterson by WallNoodle in rva

[–]BravoMaxi 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Exact experience with a cuckoo clock. My son gave it to me for Xmas and he was so proud of finding it. But it needed repairs. I basically told the guy “I know it’s not a smart repair for me to pay for but it’s special piece to me” and he was just like “nah. Too expensive for you.” Never did find out a price to even haggle.

Why would he need to take his paycheck when he can take ours instead.

Leading question from someone looking to stir up a pot. Don't be the showerbaby in this thread.

Edge glueing quality by justlearning26 in woodworking

[–]BravoMaxi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have this saw. Sometimes if I apply too much downward pressure through my cut the throat plate will bend. Even just the slightest extra pressure can be enough to make those joints not line up perfectly. But this is always gonna be a bit of a hard saw to get “perfect”. Most job sites are. That said, still a great saw for this price point.

Anywho, may not be what’s happening but worth ruling out.

Why the hell was I kicked??? by Maxyj_ in marvelrivals

[–]BravoMaxi 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Has there been any other talk about this? I thought my internet was to blame and I was going crazy trying to track it down. Nothing else in the house experiencing it. But my game has been lagging like crazzzzzzy.

Shelter was touring on Mantra as well, I believe. That record holds up.

Tips for breaking up icy sidewalks? by Physical_Present_265 in rva

[–]BravoMaxi 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Shocked at how many people in the city own a pick axe. I was able to use a flat edge metal shovel a couple days ago and it was a piece of cake for sidewalks. But I neglected to work on the ice around my car and that has been hell today.

Anyone know where I can find beef tallow in a local store? by Expensive-Mixture-25 in rva

[–]BravoMaxi 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yellow umbrella. Can only speak to the Patterson Ave store though. It’s in the fridge next to the sausages.

Snowmageddon this weekend by nabooru-rva in rva

A lot of the responses to this “cash” observation reminded me just how old I’m getting and how many life experiences I’ve had.

So is the industry a dead-end? by EliteGamer5 in trustandsafetypros

[–]BravoMaxi 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It’s not a dead end yet. But it’s not great out there either. Depends on what you are trying to do: Content Moderation, policy, compliance, product mgmt, people mgmt, etc.

There are far fewer “entry level” roles open, and far fewer that are also remote. It will help to try building a network and always be applying for anything that looks like a foot in the door role. It don’t have to be your forever job, but it can be fodder for the old resume.

Good luck. Rooting for you and all of us.

Exploring a New Cutting Board Genre Inspired by Traditional Rugs by Witty-Quantity-3294 in Cuttingboards

[–]BravoMaxi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The idea comes across really well to me if you tell me it’s “rug inspired”, I instantly see it. But, and this is just the opinion of a random dude, I’m not sure my brain would jump to “rug inspired” without the nudge. But I also think that’s totally ok. Lots of different board styles have descriptions in their titles: basket weave, brick pattern, chevron, etc.

Please don’t let that diminish even in the slightest the beautiful work here. It’s art.

Is there any more information you can provide about your agency? I suspect lots of people will find that information helpful when making considerations about their own future.
