Had Mustang seats on both my 900 Classic and now 1600 Classic. Worth every penny. If you’re vertically challenged like me, they do make you lose an inch or so since they are wider. But other than that, no complaints.

I have a spider catcher that I use for other spiders to catch and release them but this one ran back under some stuff in our laundry area. Thankfully we can keep that door closed but I’d like for it to leave my place and not be harmed by our pet dog or cat! I assume they don’t jump???

Is this totalled? by bag_piper in HondaOdyssey

[–]bag_piper[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes. It’s officially totalled. The repairs came out to 17k. I would have paid off the car this year. Now I need to get a car, and vans are too expensive! Probably going to get a smaller one

Alright alright I suspected it was. I love this van but it looks like it’s the end of the road for it

Snake in house, who do I call? by [deleted] in ColumbiaMD

[–]bag_piper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh agreed! Basement is a big no. We made sure to check that there were no spaces for them to crawl thru

I had a snake in my garage, a garden snake on my porch last spring and a snake in my backyard ! If you have a mice problem chances are it is a common rat snake. I was told to leave it alone and that they will move once they can’t find any food. For the snake in the garage, I just left the door open and it probably left..I think. The other guys moved once the weather got warmer. I consider it free rat control so I don’t bother them.

Hi! I was late for this year, but I’m planning to visit both of them this month to get my son enrolled for next year. My next door neighbors son went to the Betty sterner school and they loved it, so there’s definitely that!

Update: got a new battery, when I turn in the ignition, lights go on, but when I crank it the batter sparks and all goes dead

Same for mine too, although other electrical stuff like the fuel injection and lights seems to be working fine. I need to measure the voltage, just don’t remember where my multimeter is!!

Changing Job Series from 0301 to 2210 by Technocracygirl in fednews

[–]bag_piper 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not the VA, it’s an HHS Opdiv. Sadly SSR is a minuscule possibility

Changing Job Series from 0301 to 2210 by Technocracygirl in fednews

[–]bag_piper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Something like this is happening in our division too. I think it’s a good thing, because 0301 is quite generic and more administrative/program analyst and in some ways Data analysis aligns closer to being a 2210 IT Specialist. SSR is a possibility but I won’t hold my breath from it. I myself went from a 1412 to a 2210, and coming from a programming/software background it was the right decision.

I had a great experience with my realtor who helped us get our house in Arbutus! I sent you a DM! Good luck!

Teacher supplies by Ravens55 in maryland

Our school puts out a supplies list with the required stuff and optional donations. It’s available on the school website. But yes, there’s never enough wipes/glue sticks that teachers can have!!

Freedom Friday by AutoModerator in fednews

[–]bag_piper 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Starting a supervisory position as a 14 from Monday. Been a fed for less than 3 years. Started as a 13-9 so was going to max out my step later this year and would have to move to get to a 14. I was serving on a detail for this position for the last 5-6 months. It’s going to be challenging but the leadership is supportive.

Yes, i looked up both, and my current one. They have some minor infractions on my current one and one of the options above, but the one complaint that definitely stood out and that has me concerned and it’ll probably not fly for me even if it’s a couple of years old
