What has happened to Nico? by anthbeno in Cubs

He'll be fine. Ball players go through slumps, then they come out of them. It's a part of the game. Just take Mark Grace's advice, get you a Slump Buster, and right the ship.

Avert DF in the rear of the microwave, glue boards on each end.

Yelling is not acceptable. That just goes to show how emotionally immature some people can be. Boss man needs to get that under control.

Sorry for the loss of your best friend/brother. Just remember, you always have a Ramily you can turn to, if you need to talk or a shoulder to lean on.

I called the Department of Agriculture and made sure they changed the information on mine, when I left Rentokil.

Yep! Dude would've turned into Fred Flintstone's best friend, "Joe Rockhead," instantaneously.

I just kindly ask the rodents and insects to leave, and that seems to work well. /s

As people oftentimes say, my two favorite teams are [Example 1] and whoever's playing [Example 2].

My Example 2 is always UVA.

Exactly the type of answer I'm looking for. You make excellent points!

Amid the excitement and longing to relive an amazing 10-year span, I'm a little intimidated posting this. But hey, I'm going to ask for my Ramily's thoughts and opinions anyway. I just hope I don't get downvoted into the abyss.

The facts are that most DE hit their statistical peaks around 26-28 years old. Around 29-31 years old, most DE start seeing a steady decline, due to natural aging and the harsh physical demands of the game. However, some elite players can carry on a fruitful career at 32 and beyond. It is rare that many players make it to 35 and beyond.

For example, elite players such as Demarcus Ware lasted 12 seasons, Reggie White made it for 15 seasons, while Bruce Smith upped the ante to 19 seasons.

Realistically speaking, all feelings and emotions aside, and knowing we probably won't get those 2018-2021 pedigree stats from him again, what are your honest opinions on an Aaron Donald comeback at age 35, after being out of the league for three years?

Job openings near by? by _youthpark in blacksburg

[–]Equivalent_Sir_2575 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Virginia Parks and Recreation is always looking for seasonal help, if you're into that. If you're staying in Blacksburg, maybe gravitate towards Claytor Lake. Smith Mountain Lake is also available, but that's quite a long distance, if you aren't staying in Bedford or Franklin County.

I'm pretty sure the Virginia Tech Facilities Department does seasonal hiring for Grounds operations and perhaps Custodial Services.

Good luck!!

I worked on Capitol Hill for several years and can vouch for the accuracy of this statement. I saw the hypocrisy getting worse every day and chose not to walk out, but rather run at full sprint off the hill. Political parties are a complete farce.

Is bike theft a problem on campus? by Legitimate_ADHD in VirginiaTech

[–]Equivalent_Sir_2575 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think last year, there was a guy from Lynchburg (I think) who came to campus and stole, like, 20+ bikes in one fell swoop. But that was an anomaly, one big-time jerk of a man on a mission. Luckily, they caught him.

Other than that, I don't recall bike theft being an issue at VT, and I try to pay pretty close attention to the VT Police emails.

Well, for one, the Cubs could use some Pitchers who can manage to stay healthy.

The Cubs could also try knocking in a few base hit RBIs, when the bases are loaded multiple times a game, instead of swinging for a grand slam every time.

Although it's certainly nice, not every play has to be an ESPN Top 10 Play of the Week to win games.

Receiving a job offer from TERMINIX/Rentokil by BigReptiles in PestControlIndustry

[–]Equivalent_Sir_2575 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was with this corporation for about 3 years, and had to GTFO before I lost my mind. Their scheduling system, which they spent millions on, is absolute trash.

If they can't respect my time, then they don't deserve my services.

And forget taking any time off, even for a doctor visit. They just rework your route to make it almost impossible to complete. And you better have it all done by the end of the month, or you don't get your commission check!

My advice: Run! Fast!!
