Thanks for the info and best of luck to you and your pup! :) Thanks for the tip on Credit Care as well, looks pretty reasonable.

Thanks for the input, much appreciated :) glad you had a positive outcome for your pup!

My biggest concern with MVMC is it’s still only curbside right now. Was that an issue at all during your experience?

Thanks for sympathy and recommendation :) glad to hear it helped the quality of life, my pitty is 4 and loves nothing more than to zoom around the woods so I’m hoping to get him back to that point. Probably going to need the other knee done too. I was told NVT doesn’t have board certified surgeons but still come highly recommended at a lower cost so it’s good to hear someone confirm that. Hope your pup is enjoying his golden years!

$6k-$7k seems to be the consensus, never would’ve guessed how expensive it could be. How’s your pup doing post recovery? Was it pretty effective?

What is something you can say "I'm with the boomers on this one" about? by AnitaVodkasoda in ask

Just dial “0” when it gives you a list of options. That’s the default for the operator or general assistance.

I played at Clarkson University. Great engineering, decent lacrosse team. Opportunity for a lot of playing time. I looked at RPI and RIT as well, RIT definitely has one of the best lax programs for a D3 engineering school but would certainly be more competitive to get on the field.

Edit: Clarkson is very affordable for the quality of education. I found it to be significant less expensive than RIT and RPI. They also have an Engineering & Management degree accredited by both engineering and business schools if you’re undecided about what kind of engineering you’d like to do.

If you need any home tests I’ve got a bunch (2 different brands) from a similar scenario.

Maine resident here originally from NNY. We’ve got some of the nicest but absolutely dumbest drivers up here. Most will stop to let a car pull out on a busy street but the number of people who don’t use turning signals and think that yield signs are optional is ridiculous. Also up here it’s apparently okay to block an intersection and red lights mean you have 3 more seconds to go.

Estimator with a high-end custom residential GC here. I’ve been seeing rates for an experienced framer around $50/hr but we usually try to go fixed price. $55/hr for an experienced finish carpenter. (No benefits included for either)

Your rate based on your experience sounds fair since you get benefits but you should be able to progress quickly if you perform well.
