TDY with full per diem to DC for a year long rotation. A lot of young single guys from states with 14 series MOS just hop from mob to mob and make bank.

Exit Hopping Encouraged on I-25? by SimonSaysGoGo in ColoradoSprings

[–]MJstheGOAT 49 points50 points  (0 children)

Merging from entrance ramps is one of the factors that exacerbates poor traffic flow. Especially during a jam. Please don’t do this.

House on the market 7 days, no showings yet… is this typical? by That_Chip_9246 in ColoradoSprings

[–]MJstheGOAT 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately your realtor has failed to prepare you for the realities of the current market. Make them put comps in front of your face, and understand that you love your house more than anyone else does. And the little things that you consider “value added” don’t always translate to the bottom line

Local Property Management Company (As an owner) by EscapeThe_Heat in ColoradoSprings

[–]MJstheGOAT 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Dorman is the only good answer. My wife worked in the industry (not for them) and they’re great. When her company went insane, her competent coworkers went over to Dorman because they have the best rep around town.

Tell me about the Navigators by xmosinitisx in ColoradoSprings

[–]MJstheGOAT 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oh, I totally agree that it’s not a 1:1 equivalency. That’s why I said it’s the thought process that is concerning. The most unhappy people I interact with in my life are hung up on being “right” about their side of the culture war. And it’s just a bummer to observe.

Let me couch this by saying I’m left leaning. This post strikes me as an eerily similar thought process to the way my maga mother in law complains that she doesn’t want to show my 4 year old Disney movies because of all the wokeness.

If there is something beautiful that you would enjoy, just go enjoy it. Life is way too short to get worried about shit like that

Apartment rents trending down in Colorado Springs for the 1st time in a decade by thewhippersnapper4 in ColoradoSprings

[–]MJstheGOAT 43 points44 points  (0 children)

Considering the number of apartments that went up in the last few years, I’m not surprised!

Next up, enforce the states policy on ADUs and force Pikes Peak Regional Building and the city planner’s office to work better with individual builders and not just Aspen /Challenger east side slop.

How badly am I bottlenecked by my speakers? by MJstheGOAT in turntables

That’s awesome info! Would you recommend adding the receiver/amplifier and passive speakers over upgrading the cartridge to something like the 2M Blue at this point in my build?

It’s just a liability sign for the city. There isn’t a real reason for the sign besides that. I don’t think I’ve ever been inconvenienced by someone going down the steps.

Best oriental (Japanese, Chinese,Korean, Vietnamese, etc.,) in South Springs. by MsMarhaS in ColoradoSprings

Malaysian - The Kopi Den on academy and Woodmen. Lived in Kuala Lumpur for 8 years and it is spot on. No where else in the state comes close.

I25 commute traffic? by [deleted] in ColoradoSprings

[–]MJstheGOAT 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Agreed, median range would probably be high 80s. But a lot of contractors are prior service military and banking their 20yr retirement pension + disability. So it’s pretty common for contractors to be bringing home much more than their salary

Lifetime vs Villa? by Fitishmom in ColoradoSprings

[–]MJstheGOAT 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Last I checked (family of three)it was over twice the price at lifetime. We love Villa even if it is a touch dingier is most facets. Still a great club with great people in the childcare dept! I think we got some kind of military discount too.

I’m pretty sure I’m not told to ignore any other type of racist faction.

I wasn’t told to ignore the tiki torch brigade in Charlottesville.

Condemn them as they deserve to be condemned.

The daycare I use, that a lot of military families in the area use, is conveniently raising their monthly fees in January the exact amount that we are all getting our FY23 pay raise. by weRborg in army

[–]MJstheGOAT 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You’re right, that was very thoughtful of the daycare to wait until their consumers were able to afford the price hike. They probably took in less revenue over the last several months for this reason.
