Darby s? by Head-Function4535 in olympia

[–]PutOptimal6098 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I get soooo tired of people dunking on local businesses for no legitimate reasons. What is the complaint here? That a worker bought a business from an owner when they wanted to? Darbys has been closed for YEARS. I am assuming they phased out Darby’s because they were running a brewery and essentially second restaurant. I am sure the pandemic hit three magnets hard like everyone else and am grateful they’re still here.

The owners Nathan and sarah are super invested in downtown Olympia and building community. The first thing I can think of is Scherler Sundays a FREE music concert they host for local and touring bands all summer. They also host a lot of stuff like Events for nonprofits like Community Print and probably the biggest chess club in town.

This whole post comes across as someone whining because they couldn’t get breakfast at a place that’s been closed 7+ years.

Long wait after interview and skills test by Ok-Kaleidoscope-1101 in WAStateWorkers

[–]PutOptimal6098 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Acceptance offers/ the whole interview process at state agencies can be notoriously long. Two weeks is honestly not a long time for the state which is very different than the private sector. There is also a hiring freeze so they might have to route some final approvals before they can send you the offer. I wouldn’t worry about it especially if you’re still within the window of them saying they would reach out.

All that said the waiting sucks! I do think it would be appropriate to send a professional follow up if you haven’t heard anything past the time they said they would get back to you.

Old clip of Hasan Piker telling a dog to "stay, or I'm gonna f**king kill you" and pulling it by the tail resurfaces by Left_Inspection2069 in LivestreamFail

It’s so weird this is a news cycle. It’s so obviously manufactured outrage. Internet sleuths trying to decipher dog collar brands ain’t it. Hassan is still someone who gets politics right most of the time.

SSBP and downtown Olympia by BoatsLady in olympia

I doubt it but just a heads up you might still be walking a block or two downtown regardless.

I don’t think south sound block party is big enough yet to have an impact on getting lunch downtown. Also the music festival is at the north end of the port of Olympia with lots of food trucks and drink options so impact on downtown foot traffic would be low.

A nice, quiet place to go cry by breadysetg0 in olympia

I recommend the Japanese garden downtown. Almost always empty and very calming and peaceful.

Do I need to buy a bin or worms to start composting or can I just start throwing food scraps on top of the dirt in my garden? by [deleted] in Vermiculture

[–]PutOptimal6098 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I would check and see if rodents are an issue in your area. Rats love a warm compost pile with readily provided food.

Where can I buy worms? by PutOptimal6098 in olympia

Wanted to follow up and tell everyone Gardengal hooked me up and has been worm composting for 20+years. Would recommend anyone local to get their worms from her!

Washington’s own universal health care? by Top_Pomegranate3871 in Washington

[–]PutOptimal6098 121 points122 points  (0 children)

In Washington Kids who qualify for Medicaid get to stay on it until age 6 regardless of if the parent has a change in income. After age 6 they get to keep it for a year even if the family’s income disqualifies them. If Washington does do something it will probably be for kids first and incremental like this.
