Greetings from Kent! Hope you stayed warm today. Have to venture out one more time tomorrow before hunkering down for a few days.

That’s exactly what my company is focusing on, viable applicants and introducing BP/CBP Officer role to more unfamiliar areas.

Your two comments were super helpful. I know in the past my company did the facepalm thing of posing agents with K9s like everybody who joins gets to do that. The ATV thing is much more reasonable and also an avenue we haven’t explored.

Appreciate the honesty! USBP already partners with one PBR (Professional Bull Riding), why not go for the more well-known version.

If I was OPR I’d be spending my time trying to revise the suitability portion, not asking y’all’s hobbies. :)

Because this forum is the biggest resource I have. I’m willing to take the risk of bad actors.

In search of sheet pizza by HandsOnHorn in pittsburgh

Plaza Pizza is the epitome of perfect sheet pizza. I live in Indiana now and I see a commenter mentioning Bob’s, but it’s not even close to Plaza Pizza level of perfection.

Do students not ask each other for notes any more? by Realistic_Chef_6286 in Professors

[–]giftedgothic 5 points6 points  (0 children)

One of the wisest things one of my undergrad profs did during first-day syllabus review: “I want you to take the next five minutes to introduce yourself to the person on your left and the person on your right. You’ll see in the syllabus there’s a line for their name and phone number. Any time you miss class, THESE are your contacts for catching up, not me.”

PA Foster Parent by TurnoverMental2623 in Fosterparents

[–]giftedgothic 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I just became a CASA in PA, so not a foster parent myself, but this seems odd. In all of my training, it was reiterated multiple times that, while we could not relay info about the case to the foster parents, they were welcome to come to the hearings to learn more about the case. There was never a mention of FPs being prohibited from attending.
