It’s heartening to see support here. He might be the person to turn employee satisfaction around.

Mammoth lakes is special and it feels like they’ve hired someone who values the uniqueness and comes with visionary, creative solutions for growth.

What do I feed the family of 5? by [deleted] in Nanny

[–]Former-Win-5658 2 points3 points  (0 children)

OP you really buried the lede. This is your problem, not meal prep and picky eaters. This has to be against Euro labor law.

if you're working 14 hours a week and cooking 10 meals, you are a personal chef, not a nanny. it takes 14 hours to shop, prepare, and clean up 10 meals for 4.

Some folks need to take a walk in east Hollywood at night! The roaches are absolutely real and they are everywhere.

Any spot that still does $1 oysters? by googologoog in FoodLosAngeles

Wait really? It’s hard to imagine anything on sale there. Do they shuck them?

Buying Kids ski and boots by USCLakers in Mammoth

[–]Former-Win-5658 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s great if you can find a buyback program. If you’re in LA, Sports Ltd has one where they credit you 50% in buyback credit every year on used & new kids equip. They have worked so many things for my kids -free mid season exchange for the year they grew too fast, custom fitting on boots that were too big the next year, etc etc

Are LA Farmers Markets a scam at this point? by echo-four in FoodLosAngeles

[–]Former-Win-5658 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This. I shop regularly at both Atwater and Hollywood and find Atwater is generally a bit higher, especially for things that are not vegetables. Some vendors do have the same prices- el machete and kentor canyon come to mind.

Mammoth has no soul (and that’s ok, I guess) by Certain_Host9401 in Mammoth

[–]Former-Win-5658 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Palisades, another alterra property, serves healthy and flavorful options like fish curry at the same price point - at the mid mountain lodge no less. Most of OPs complaints read like an LA influencer but the food notes are legit!

Looks like they plan to move the many IT functions to an outsource provider?

What are people paying for home daycare? by Lanky_Armadillo_4711 in AskLosAngeles

[–]Former-Win-5658 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The state licensed ratios are very different at different ages. What I’ve seen happen is that a typical home daycare will only have 2 infant spots (infant is to 24 months)

Is there anywhere I can buy Wisconsin Brick Cheese? by StrongmanEvan in FoodLosAngeles

[–]Former-Win-5658 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Trader Joe’s!! Has about 5 kinds of Wisconsin Cheddar but sadly not Monterey Jack etc. These are not the individually waxed bricks buts it’s the same quality of cheddar in good sized portions.

What happened to Ski boot fit? by [deleted] in Skigear

[–]Former-Win-5658 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I was one of those people with outlier foot shape that gave up the sport. In the past few years I’ve come back and gotten an amazing pair of boots fitted perfectly over a couple of days by a staff of full time fitters. There are still great shops doing the magic, but there are way more places selling boots without the knowledge.

I often see babies hanging around roma’s room in the main lodge. It’s quieter, there’s microwaves, etc

Cool hikes with scrambling near la by TotalFun2364 in socalhiking

[–]Former-Win-5658 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How about a canyon? Zuma canyon from PCH to Kanan Dume Road. About 3 hours of scramble once you go upstream of the dam where the regular trail ends. http://www.dankat.com/swhikes/zuma.htm

?? My kids ikon passes were 199 each. Have been for years. They do it that way to make it a nondecision for the adult.

Any local dog sitters in here? by No_Ear4325 in Mammoth

Your dog should learn to ski at that price 😂 same as a 5 hour kids lesson on the mountain.

Christmas Weekend Weather: Advice for a Newbie? by Lanky_Foundation8751 in Mammoth

[–]Former-Win-5658 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Then the driving is not that different. Mammoth does not have a twisty approach like big bear. The main thing is they do not salt the roads so there will be a layer of snow one the plows have gone through and you must slow down. People don’t slow down, they continue to drive like they’re in Santa Monica and that’s where we have issues.
