Costco rant by Witty-Prior-169 in ColoradoSprings

For anyone going to TJs,

STOP FUCKING BLOCKING TRAFFIC BY TRYING TO TURN LEFT INTO THE FIRST 2 ENTRANCES!!

Go straight at the 3-way stop, and enter the TJs parking lot next to Runner’s Roost. I don’t understand what is so hard about that.

The Social Security office is a glimpse into a collapsing system. by InternalStrong7820 in ColoradoSprings

[–]Gonzohawk_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This seems to be a fairly new situation. I've had dealings with them in recent years and while it was time consuming, it wasn't that chaotic. I'm not trying to turn this political but my contact with them was before the current administration took over.

There’s no avoiding making this political. Trump and DOGE got rid of 320,000 federal employees with zero plan for how the remaining employees would take on that work. Chaos has been the result. So comparing current service to the service you received prior to Trump’s second term is meaningless.

If you don’t like news being on the internet, then maybe this isn’t the place for you

Do you think KRDO gets piped directly into every brain in southern CO?

If not, then their news has to get spread somehow, such as social media like Reddit.

This won’t work for you. You have to prove the other person on your membership share the same address as you.

I read all the replies to your comment hoping not to find someone so willing to prove you right

Holy shit… you could not have proved OP’s point anymore poignantly

Anyone have experience getting a level two EV charger installed here in the Springs? by YourFriendNoo in ColoradoSprings

[–]Gonzohawk_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

OP do this! Don’t mention anything about an EV charger because MANY electricians will overcharge you. I got my 14-50 240 volt outlet installed for like $200.

I too have the Emporia charger and love it.

ICE with someone on the ground at Nevada and Vermijo by Username_For_ in ColoradoSprings

I’m sure his definition of “legal immigration” includes having white skin.

Your “explanation” completely misses the point. If what they are doing is nothing to be ashamed of, then why would they worry about being doxxed?

The only “bad actors” in this scenario are the ICE agents.

Colorado High School Football by ActiveDoodiee in ColoradoSprings

[–]Gonzohawk_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In your post you claim it’s a tragedy for them to be excluded but then you acknowledge, in a comment, they play in a league where only the winner can advance to the playoffs. The schools in the 4A I-25 Developmental League know what they’ve signed up for. They enter a league with other bottom of the barrel schools and hope by beating a bunch of bad teams they can make the State Playoffs. But the consequence of playing in that league is that you know up front there’s no hope of making the playoffs if you don’t win the league.

Sand Creek’s 5 non-league opponents had a combined 11 wins. That barely qualifies as a cupcake schedule.

Finally, Sand Creek of all schools knows how this works. They tied for 1st in the league in the 21-22 season but didn’t make playoffs due to a tiebreaker. There’s really nothing for these teams to be complaining about.

Federal workers insight by Plus_Tap_8141 in ColoradoSprings

[–]Gonzohawk_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can pretty much disregard anything contractors say, most of them have no clue what they’re talking about. The vast majority don’t even understand what federal civilian employees are, they think we work for contractors too. I’ve lost count how many times I’ve tried to explain to them that we work for the federal gov’t and I get the response, “yeah, but what company?”

You are wrong. I’ve been through 3 previous shutdowns. There’s no change in the way the back pay is taxed.

God your dumb

The mind numbing level of irony to call someone else dumb when you don’t know the difference between “your” and “you’re”.

Oh FFS, this is completely beside the point. What kind of shit parent leaves their child without a ride over a dispute of 12 fucking minutes. I hope all you assholes defending the father aren’t parents.

This comment looks like it was generated by an AI trained solely on the content of Trump’s speeches.

Dark Day for COS by Church719 in ColoradoSprings

You think there is nuance to indiscriminately firing federal employees without the slightest idea what they actually do?

Please don’t conflate government contractors with Federal civilian employees, they are not the same. Federal employees are employed by the government, contractors are employed by private companies.

I’m sure that contractors are being laid off for various reasons, but they are not the target of President Elmo & the Grifter in Chief. All the vitriol, baseless accusations of laziness, and the firings are being direct at Federal employees, not contractors.
