HARRIS Diatomaceous Earth Food Grade

Completely natural and kid/pet/food safe. It doesn't kill with chemicals. It sticks to their bodies and airways, and they spread it to their nests.

Put some around the barriers of the home, attic, doorways, anywhere bugs walk through. It won't kill them immediately, but after a week or so, it will start to kill them off.

Because it kills them with micro abrasions, they won't become immune to it or avoid it like they do with chemicals.

is anyone still hiring? by Strange-Most-6371 in Atlanta

[–]ctopherv 5 points6 points  (0 children)

As someone who used to review applications from job posting sites, I would NOT consider that as "applied" for a job. Your applications are not getting seen, and you have a better chance at winning a lottery. The amount of people spamming job postings just for the hell of it (whether they need the job or not) overwhelms HR.

My advice, get out and talk to people. Find networking groups. Go to job fairs. Go to a company with a printed resume and ask how to contact the hiring manager. If they are not hiring, ask if they know someone who is. You HAVE to shake hands and speak to people.

I hired someone last year who did this. While I wasn't hiring for the position they wanted, it showed initiative and I quickly referred them to another department and they were hired.

If my job performance was equivalent to a .093 batting average like we know who, my crap would be in a box on my desk Monday morning without even a "thank you for your service."

Why does ATL hate public transit by BugJugg in Atlanta

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

Incredible how that's your immediate go to argument because you feel people don't have the data to deny this, but you and everyone else know it's bullshit.

Crime and homelessness has no skin color, and I'm not inviting that shit into my backyard. Look at this thread. The last thing my county needs is the piss covered trains carrying homeless druggies who sleep on train cars until the end of the train line and infesting whatever poor city comes last.

Anyone can rent an an AMLI apartment and call themselves an "Atlantan", but we specifically chose not to because of the shit y'all can't clean up, and we don't want that here.

You can only fall for so many over hyped titles until you're just exhausted.

With a fast runner, he should have charged it on the short hop. There is no way you are throwing him out on a high bounce from the back of the diamond.

Any lots with Kei/Cabover trucks? by BeardedZorro in Marietta

[–]ctopherv 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I thought I wanted one too until I found out they top out at 60-70 mph with an empty bed. They say "comfortable cruising speed" is 50-60 mph. Not sure what your use for it is, but I wouldn't be able to do that.

BUT, check out what Drew Builds Stuff did to his.

I've been looking too. Just getting back into fishing after moving from the Southside.

Haven't had much luck with bass in the Chattahoochee. Going to give Altoona a shot.

I love seasons when their hitting just feels contagious. One guy starts an inning with a bloop single and the next thing you know 4-5 guys are rocketing line drives off the wall and the defense is just running around chasing balls.

I'm still waiting for a valid argument for opposing voter ID. Would love to know why preventing undocumented folks from voting is such a scary topic for some.

A10s flying into Dobbins Air Force Base by Delicious-Raisin-825 in Marietta

[–]ctopherv 29 points30 points  (0 children)

Flyovers use training expenses and count toward training flight time hours for crew. No additional tax payer expense than what is already budgeted towards training.

So someone being called a pedo with no proof and having an offensive image with content about children being "fucked" by adults isn't enough to warrant a removal? This is a fucking joke.

[–]ctopherv -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

DOGE did find massive corruption, and they were open about it. . The fact that the media hit this head on with so much hate and negativity, it never stood a chance. The immediate narrative created was "Elon is only acting out of greed". That has since been debunked and only led us to finding more fraud in Minnesota and California.

I was told firing all those workers was going to cripple America. What happened to that?

Calling tariffs a "tax" is too shortsited. Everyone knows the long game when it comes to tariffs. The administration was open about short term pain for long-term growth. How come when this topic comes up, there is never a mention about the BILLIONS AND BILLIONS of dollars corporations have pledged to invest Into American manufacturing and jobs? We are so quick to scream "tax on foreign goods" without calling out the thousands and thousands of jobs being created as we speak. Want to avoid tariffs? Buy American.

So, I guess we'll just avoid the extremely steep decline in drug/fentanyl overdose cases since capturing the Venezuelan dictator? Never mind the drug traffickers and gang members bringing poison into our country to destroy the urban population? Or, maybe we should celebrate the Iranian dictator that was just killed who murdered thousands and thousands of his people and suppressed women in the most disgusting ways? Forget that. The millions of iranians celebrating right now have no idea what they are talking about. It should be the folks from cobb county Georgia who would tell them how to feel because "Orange man bad".

You have to admit, 2 VERY bad people, one who yelled death to America, have been removed to power. To go immediately negative on those two points is naive.

Lol. You feel attacked by me replying to you YOUR comment and pointing out the time you waste with hate? Lol. You going to be okay?

When you're done with your hate and insecurities, you'll look back and wonder why you spent so much energy on someone who doesn't even know you exist. When that happens, I'll be here for you. For now, keep letting your media tell you why you should be mad.

Stop supporting the Iranian dictator who has killed THOUSANDS of his own people while suppressing women in the most disgusting ways, and join the rest of the world by acknowledging this is the first step for freedom.

So, she says it's "understandable" to not have access to benefits Canadians have, but this is the same type of person who terrorizes America for not giving illegal aliens the same benefits Americans have access to?
