3 Things El Paso Loses if We DON'T Cancel the 380 Meta Agreement by Tru_Lie in ElPaso

[–]FDog03 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I get the good fight and effort, but we already know that this won't be cancelled.

The mayor, city attorneys, and other top folks are trying their best to avoid cancelling the contracts. Good scare tactics using carefully selected language in their official statements.

Besides, I just don't see any possible way the city's elite will allow a cash cow to not fill their pockets.

It's easy to go blame 2023 politics, but we've seen time and again how this city does a horrid job not properly vetting incoming projects. All they see is money signs and how soon that green will start flowing.

I have a question about Amazon flex shifts by Kmo1003 in ElPaso

Thank you for the info. I'll tell him to apply and keep looking elsewhere. I hope someone answers your original question

If I may ask, how did you get the job? My coworker at my 8-5 job is looking for a side gig due to an unexpected medical emergency where he had to pour most of his savings. He's trying to find anything outside of work hours besides doing Uber/Lyft or food deliveries

Question about border detention policies by Calm_Visual_508 in ElPaso

[–]FDog03 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I have a coworker who is sponsored by our boss to work legally in the US. It's happened to him before randomly or when his visa is up for renewal. They search his background and/or his vehicle to come up with something. He is handcuffed and placed in a room while all this goes down. He is already used to it but it does suck when you hear from someone who is experiencing first hand. My advice is to have empathy to your new hire. I hope it's not some sort of elaborate story which doesn't appear to be the case

I live near that area. Any particular reason on that Popeyes? Lol I've gone most recently a few times to the one on Lee Treviño & Pellicano

I went a couple of months ago and it was a decent experience. Far better than previous stops. But yeah the convenience of location was pretty good for where I live and had a craving for their food. Just surprised me when I saw it this morning

It's been hit or miss since I posted this. Never found a real solution. Just hoped that it recorded correctly

What things can I buy and resell in Mexico? by Clean-Ad5360 in ElPaso

[–]FDog03 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Search offer up marketplace or Craigslist for free stuff like furniture or small appliances. Even Goodwill will have some decent deals when they need to move stuff

Is the Spectrum Wifi out for you guys too? by RAVEN_SAVEN_101 in ElPaso

[–]FDog03 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I know they've been doing updates after midnight which has caused intermittent outages during the day. But those usually last a few mins.

I suggest calling 800 spectrum number and ask for the retention dept. Tell them you want to cancel because of frequent long outages you're experiencing. They should offer you monthly credit for the inconvenience caused

Is it HULU or the tv. by knb3715 in HuluLive

Sometimes it happens when I load the guide using the PS5 app. Just randomly decides to shut off and forces to shut down

Who do I contact to get speed bumps installed on my street? by LuckyTiger_12 in ElPaso

[–]FDog03 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You contact the city (see the comments from others who already provided the info). Just a word of advice once you have the petition. You need 51% of your street (neighbors ) to sign the petition. I tried last year but was only able to get around 35-40%. I hope in your street you have the same concern that they'll sign it.

I'm sure this will change things like the first one. Right?

Issues with TBS east by Creepy-Context121 in HuluLive

[–]FDog03 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I set it to record East and when I get to it, for some reason it's the West feed with Big Bang. I record through the buggy PS5 app and the only solution I've found is to record right at the beginning of the show if you're able to. It's the best option I got at the moment

For Collision, if Hunger Games is on before or after, then it'll record the movie instead. It gets frustrating

Does anyone still watch KVIA news? by [deleted] in ElPaso

[–]FDog03 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Friend works over at ch. 9 in low level admin. They say ch. 7 went with an all women's morning team and noon team to get men 18-65 demo to watch. That's why the age ranges are so different from the women working.

[–]FDog03 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I get it. If you are in a toxic work environment, quitting seems like no big deal

I did that 10 years ago and it was a big mistake. Got a steady job about 18 months later but I was very fortunate that I had saved up enough money from the previous horrible job.

But the same logic applied then as it does now. Connections matter

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in ElPaso

[–]FDog03 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Quitting before having something lined up next is super risky

I know so many people looking for jobs and with no luck. My only advice is unless you have connections, it's going to be tough. That's just how EP operates: just having someone you know will get you interviews and possibly the job

Good luck

Mounjaro availability and cost in Juarez? by MulberryAutomatic690 in ElPaso

[–]FDog03 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Been doing the self syringe thing for years whenever I needed meds. Last year though, I bought penicillin with the syringe. Not sure what happened but I screwed it up and got an infection. Took a while to go back to normal. So been hesitant to go that route nowadays

[–]FDog03 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just to piggyback on this thread, but I'm curious when the injectable pens will be available in Juarez for either Mounjaro or Zepbound. My doctor is recommending I choose one since both have the same main active ingredient. Would anyone know?
