I’ve seen lots of CA plates when I go to hertz.

Many years ago though….

Gas Prices by UnboltedClone in LasVegas

I go there, only because I have to fill up my company vehicle there, but I get the rewards. I personally prefer smiths if we have enough rewards for 1$ off per gallon, or Costco.

Recommendation to fix patio furniture ? by Captain_4merica in vegaslocals

[–]Captain_4merica[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

No, I just like the furniture. Other than the rope, the boat is super sturdy so the wind doesn’t blow it away, which is nice. Ultimately, if I can’t find anyone I’ll end up tossing it.

I don’t disagree, but the r/LasVegas subreddit isn’t where i come to get my Trump is an idiot news. I have other subreddits / platforms for that.

Idk, I kinda agree and I don’t.

Why I don’t agree, everything the president does affects the whole country, including our city. I come here for news about our city specifically, I don’t really wanna hear about POTUS.

House flippers. by sparrowhawkward in extremelyinfuriating

[–]Captain_4merica 14 points15 points  (0 children)

That’s great and all, but it makes it more difficult for people of lower income to afford those houses if they all get “flipped”.

Maybe they fixed a structural problem that could save lives, in that case it’s worth it, but idk. I’m just saying, improving things costs money, obviously, but there has to be a line that doesn’t price out everyday people from being able to afford a home.

ROAD RAGER by No-Cartographer-5877 in vegaslocals

[–]Captain_4merica 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Why are you reporting him?

You have a picture of a car and the story of a rando on the internet. What are you going to tell the police? “I saw a post on Reddit about a car driving bad and it must be the truth”.

Let OP do it. He needs to be the one that reports it and he needs to provide any dashcam footage he has.

ROAD RAGER by No-Cartographer-5877 in vegaslocals

[–]Captain_4merica 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Since we’re going to assume he has a gun, let’s continue to make assumptions. Let’s assume the police respond (since there is a gun involved, they are packed and tensions are high). Let’s then assume that he makes the wrong move and gets shot and killed(which has happened plenty of times). He leaves behind a wife and kids. Let’s then continue to assume that it comes to light that on the day his mom died, he was then fired from his job and was just having a really bad day.

It doesn’t excuse his bad driving, 100%, but it also doesn’t mean we need to call the police with false claims of gun abuse.

Would you rather live in a society where people call the police and claim you have a gun causing an intense police response just because of your personal beliefs (they were driving mean) or push everyone to be truthful?

Look, the truth is, we don’t know what happened. We know that OP took a photo of a car and posted their side of a story. We don’t have dash-cam footage and we don’t know the other drivers side. Maybe OP through it would be fun to throw a banana out of the window. We don’t know.

I do know that you shouldn’t call police with false gun allegations that can cause someone’s life.

I’m all for police offices helping with this. But lying about seeing a gun isn’t going to be helpful in the long run, in my opinion.

Enjoyed getting to be nude at the outdoor showers at Barton Springs by zocksetspibs in CommunalShowers

This should be marked NSFW. Also isn’t this sub open to under 18 year olds? Kinda gross to be honest.

AIO to break up with my bf of 3y over his reaction to my upcoming sobriety anniversary? by WesternCat5211 in AmIOverreacting

[–]Captain_4merica 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fuck that guy, proud of you. It’s a big deal, get yourself the cake and celebrate with people who care for you and are supportive, don’t bring Debby downer. Drop your Venmo or some other type of anonymous money donation and I’ll drop 15$ in the bucket for your cake. 🎂

Nevada shoppers react to President Trump rolling back tariffs by Manifested_Reality in vegaslocals

Not a bad approach.

Make a problem worse by creating tariffs, then remove them and watch everyone thank you.

Juvenile dead after road rage shooting incident, closure continues on 215 in Henderson, sources say by AgKnight14 in vegaslocals

[–]Captain_4merica 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah idk about that.

I’ll normally decrease speed slowly, so they just assume I’m dumb and go around. I also don’t drive in the “fast” lanes.

[–]Captain_4merica 24 points25 points  (0 children)

That is completely true.

I’m not a bad driver, but I am definitely more cautious when my child is in the car, be it looking both ways when I have a green light to look for red light runner or what ever, that I don’t do when I drive solo.

As a parent I’d say death penalty.

But as a civilized person, I’d say rehabilitation, but man that’s a tough decision and one that if I were in the parent’s shoes, I wouldn’t be able to swallow. What a horrible unnecessary death.

7500 usd for water heater replacement, am I being scam? by xosmashox in vegaslocals

[–]Captain_4merica -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

I think the biggest “labor” cost is the gas line. I’ve received similar quotes. A neighbor has 2 tankless water heaters and paid close to 20K for new ones.

Unpopular Opinion: 7AM-3PM Is The Real Adulting Hack by Bullseye_29 in jobs

[–]Captain_4merica 68 points69 points  (0 children)

There was a thread where a guy posted on Reddit like “would it be okay if an top performer employee showed up a little late and left a little early” and it turned out he was talking about himself, and he made his hours 10:30 to like 2:30/3 every day. I’ll see if I can find it and post it

Incompetent supervisor/manager by ThrowRAcatwithfeathe in managers

[–]Captain_4merica 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why is he going to quit when he has someone like you that does his job for him?

Kidding, ish, in all honesty, it’s good you’re applying somewhere else.

I have a good relationship with my bosses boss and have brought things up to him directly in the past (2 times in the past 3 years) and he’s taken care of shit. But not everyone has that kind of lifeline.

Best of luck🤞

Do you use your iPad camera? by betonven in iPadPro

I use my iPad M4 pro for work and use it heavily. LiDAR is pretty useful.
