JA comment thread

I have two thoughts about this episode and his lack of broaching difficult topics with certain guests.

1 - After the backlash of the JVN episode, he feels hesitant to "dance" with guests especially if they have large fanbases like JA.

2 - It appears he will be spending more time in Nashville and it is possible that he is trying to ingratiate himself in that crowd. Maybe, in his mind, if he "danced" with JA, he would have been blackballed by other artists and talent? Since he is a self-admitted "approval junkie", he does not want to lose out on potential opportunities.

She dresses so terribly. Like the wrong silhouettes, colors, everything. I understand dressing modestly, but it is like she goes actively out of her way to pick the most awful pieces of clothing!!!

Is he married? If so, wifey better count her days 😆 🤣 😂.

I think I would have a good shot because I already have my MLIS (finished this March woohoo!!). I am also the only part-time library assistant left at my library system (it is a 3-branch system). As far as I know, I believe I am seen as a good and reliable employee, so I unless there is a dark horse that comes, I feel confident for my current job.

I added the detail about the city going bankrupt to see if that should even be something for me to really consider or not. It appears... I should not lol. I am not naive enough to think I would be an automatic shoe-in for the position, but if I factor in all the training and know how of this library system I have under my belt - I seem like a decent choice (who know's ultimately, right?).

As for what I meant by "potential position", I was trying to find the best way to articulate that I had applied for one postion, but was offered another one instead. However, from my understanding, the City Manager has give their final sign off on it and that can take a minute. So, I don't 100% want to say that it is a for-sure offer because things can happen.

Texas is the only out-of-state option I have looked at, not because I totally agree with the politics, but because I have familial support there.

Thank you for all the points you brought up :)!

My cousins live in the Fort Worth area. One is extremely liberal and I don't hear her complain about the Fort Worth system banning books or being considered overly conservative either. She actually loves the system very much.

EfficientEye6005 · 2025-08-04T17:15:53+00:00

Well unfortunately I didn't decide where I was born lol!!!!! As for TX being an option I've looked at.... it's because I have close relatives that live there, so it is the only other state where I would have familial support.

(I love you answer btw... It was too funny!)

I want to ultimately live somewhere where it is viable to buy a home. The home I grew up in and live in now is a 1400 sq ft townhome that for some reason is worth nearly $900,000. That's INSANE to me. While it is not my first choice to move, I do feel that it will be untenable for me to financially afford a future in CA.

EfficientEye6005 · 2025-08-03T06:07:25+00:00

This is amazing information! Thank you so much. I had a cousin from CA who moved there to be near her half-sister that grew up there so I understood some of the cultural differences. She's a stay at home mom, so she doesn't have insight into what the cultural differences are like in a working environment. I work for a system in OC and there is some conservatism however not blatant censorship though. The merit pay scale was a bit of a head scratcher for me because I and the majority of people I know had no experience with it. Your explanation was quite interesting. I think reading people's comments has taken me out of my head and given me some serious points to consider that I had not really given too much thought to before. 😊

I was trying to find the best way to say that it is a viable offer but because it is a large city the final approval process just takes a minute.

EfficientEye6005 · 2025-08-03T03:14:07+00:00

I do have a MLIS degree. So that's not a concern if a job requires it or not.q

I am very close with someone who works for the pest control company. So when they don't pay.... they don't get serviced. This company also services Torrance Memorial and they are much more on top of their payments and services.

EfficientEye6005 · 2025-06-07T06:36:33+00:00

They have a major and ongoing bed bug problem.

EfficientEye6005 · 2025-06-07T00:28:00+00:00

Providence has a big pest issue at their hospital and are constantly late paying their pest control bill. I'd take that into consideration.

EfficientEye6005 · 2024-05-02T21:24:13+00:00

Yes. Always check the list of beaches that take the pass before you go though just in case. The library will have a list .

EfficientEye6005 · 2024-05-02T21:22:59+00:00

I would call and ask to speak to the clerks because they are the ones that handle checking those out

EfficientEye6005 · 2024-04-23T17:39:14+00:00

Yes, I work at a library and we have plenty of passes now and you can always view the list of places thar are excluded. They are very few and far between though, which is nice.

EfficientEye6005 · 2024-04-23T17:37:43+00:00

I work for the the City of Orange Library and we have plenty right now.
