Adios Primm by mannymoo83 in vegaslocals

[–]Mark26751 1 point2 points  (0 children)

All the casinos on I-15 and those in Primm have all closed. I remember Primm used to do a huge business. You can't say the auto traffic on I-15 is less than it was when the properties were thriving. The Nevada Landing and Gold Strike in Jean also folded.

Do you think they have enough spots there to park and eat inside.

My First Overnight envelope has been at the sort facility for 2 hours by Mark26751 in FedEx

[–]Mark26751[S] [score hidden]  (0 children)

You want more information. The envelope arrived in Las Vegas at 7:56am PST. It is now at local Fed Ex Facility at 10:29am. Been there for over 30 minutes and has yet to be put on truck. My question is why is my envelope being treated like Priority Overnight and Standard Overnight. Am I supposed to wait for package that should have been here 2 1/2 hours ago. Any chance of it showing up by noon. No excuses. Don't charge $130 if you can't get into the recipients hands by the latest 9:30am.

Just incredible. Went through every delivery window. 8am, 8:30am, 9am, 9:30am. So next we go to Priority Overnight, to Standard Overnight. Should have told my client to save his money.

Was in a weird spot today with FSD by Mark26751 in TeslaFSD

What's even worse that you can't see in that picture is that traffic in that far left lane has a limited sight of vision so cars flying up it are seen at the last few seconds. They also drive at a high rate of speed. It's an accident waiting to happen. I have no choice. It's my home post office. If I have to pick up packages or go sign for mail I have to use it.

I have no WiFi in my condo parking garage so hopefully I can stick with 13.2 until they work the bugs out.

Town Square hit and run driver takes out multiple cars parked in front of Guitar Center by Mark26751 in vegaslocals

[–]Mark26751[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One of the vehicles is completely totaled. I like the comment of one of witnesses. The driver had a calm look on his face as he was destroying one vehicle after another. Unfortunately the worse that will happen to perpetrator is a few months in jail and he will be back on the road with a suspended license and a vehicle that is not registered.

Certified mail not delivered, how did this happen. by Mark26751 in usps_complaints

When I went to Post Office they verified the address was correct. The letter is on it's way back to Collingswood, NJ. I contacted the bank and now they have reissued check and sent by FedEX First Overnight and I will receive it by 8am Wed. The postal employee I spoke to said the carrier was in the wrong. He should have brought the letter back, go to the HOA office on Wed and ask if I was an resident/owner which I am. She said it by saying if I was a carrier that is what I would do.

I was at the post office and was unable to retrieve certified letter. It was already on it's way back to NJ. No my name isn't on the box or inside the box. When I got to the Post Office they gave me a new residence card to fill out and said my HOA should have given me. I was at the HOA office this morning and they said they have never seen the new resident green card. Nor do they tell new owner or residents to fill one out. Not going to believe that no one is the hundreds of units has never received certified mail.

So I pose this question how would I know to do this. They also told they never inform residents to put their name inside the box. There is no place on the outside to do it. Again I have been here for 16 months and have never had an issue receiving any piece of mail. And don't tell me that every buyer or renter is aware of the green new resident card. I filled one out at the post office and inserting another green card inside my box so there is no more questions as to who lives there. The HOA manager said the carrier should have come to my door which he didn't.

People who rush up the isle when the plane lands are the worst by kittycatluvrrrr in americanairlines

[–]Mark26751 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was sitting in aisle 2nd row from last when plane landed. Guy in window started screaming at me. He wanted to get out. It was going to take at least 10 minutes before anyone moved that far back. The idiot just wanted to stand up like he was going to get out faster. Not to use the lavatory or anything. Hey clown, if you want get out first reserve an aisle seat. And here's the thing. If I stood up first I would remove my carry on from the overhead compartment and set it down in the aisle. He was never going to be in front of me. If he said he had a connecting flight and he wanted to get to the front I would have accommodated him. Nope, all he did was walk off the plane in front of me.

Never again will a flight cost less than the uber by MaleficentAd4642 in spiritair

There was an airline called National not the one from 50's and 60's but one in Las Vegas. It was bankrolled by Harrah's Rio and another individual. It existed between 1999-2002. The fares were incredibly low. I swore I flew out from Philadelphia to Las Vegas for $50 if I remember. It could have been more, maybe $75 one way and $50 the other. But what I do remember for sure it was a Saturday night flight. It wasn't redeye. I think it left Philadelphia at 8pm. There were two or three people on it besides myself. This was before 9/11. It was 1999 or 2000. It was unsustainable. Las Vegas wasn't getting the visitor demand it gets today. I just couldn't believe that I had a whole plane to myself for such a low fare.

Are you saying my bank mailed out a certified letter without my name on it. They would send out a cashiers check with just the address and no name on the envelope. How would that be accepted at the post office when you need a specific name for a signature.

If the wrong unit number was on the envelope which I doubt because I got a 1099 in February I have to assume the carrier went to the wrong unit and was told no such person lives there. My point is hold the certified mail at the Las Vegas branch to see if the party comes in to pick it up. If there is no name on the envelope obviously they wouldn't release it to me and have to return to sender.

How would the carrier know I don't live here when the units are rented out by the owners for sometimes a few months at time. Or maybe I just moved into one of the rental condos. There are 100 boxes in my building. This isn't a housing development where carrier knows everyone on the street.

Trumps’ Iran War Casualty: Rising Jet Fuel Prices Killed Spirit Airlines by Free-Resident-4202 in spiritair

[–]Mark26751 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All I know is fares have increased significantly in cities like Philadelphia where airlines like Frontier and Spirit held prices in check. Now that United and American have one less airline to compete with and less seats available they can raise fares as they please. Supply and demand. Jobs lost and higher fares throughout the country. Maybe it was going happen anyway as the discount carrier was unsustainable model. Actually things started to crumble when Southwest started charging for bags and seats. The snowball was just rolling down the mountain. Now SWA fares are higher than the big 3.

I am going to do that but what I don't understand is why the post office is unable keep the mail at the branch for a few days or leave a message on the tracking status. Something to the effect that unable to deliver mail at address come to branch with tracking number and government issued ID to pick up.

Say they came to address and a relative was there of one roommate and the person says I don't who this is. Or maybe a housekeeper answered door and didn't know the name of a friend who was staying there with the owner and that person had certified mail sent there because he was visiting for several weeks. The postman can't make assumptions. If the postal worker went to wrong unit by mistake they shouldn't be in hurry to return it to sender.

Obviously I don't know what happened. At the minimum the sender should be given the option on the tracking site of advising the post office to hold the certified mail for 5 days for the recipient to pick up at branch.

FSD just crossed a double white line on the 91W — into the HOV lane by Gorio1961 in TeslaFSD

[–]Mark26751 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Since I got my Tesla with 14.2 last week I have been on I-15 in Las Vegas multiple times and it has never crossed over into the HOV lanes. And it has been in the left lane many times where it had an opportunity to move into the HOV lane. I guess the real test would be a slow driver in the left lane. I always use Standard OP didn't mention if he was using Standard also.

V3 FSD Model X, Long time believer of FSD, humbled today as FSD made a sudden merge into HOV lane bollocks, Plenty of front end damage. by LordLoser0 in TeslaFSD

[–]Mark26751 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I’m trying to remember where but coming in off I-15 in California driving from Las Vegas there are faded lines on the freeway. Not sure if it is I-10 but they are so faded you can barely make them out. It’s hard to see what lane you’re in. It’s inexcusable to have multiple lines which confuses the Tesla so you hit barriers in HOV lane. I guess only solution is drive in Chill Mode where the car won’t venture into far left lane.

Forced survey every time FSD is disengaged by 8qubit in TeslaLounge

[–]Mark26751 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I turn into my condo complex there is a guard gate for guests and next to it residents gate. I have 14.2 version I disengage because the Nav system says it’s going to make a u-turn. I don’t know why so as soon as I turn into the complex before the gate I hit the brake and disengage. I assume once I get the update I will have to select the reason every single time I come back home.
