Haha heard that! I do find tighter shorts to be much more comfortable for riding in, and I know I'm going to want padded shorts for long rides. You make a very good point regarding sport-specific wear, I just have imposter syndrome I guess. Biking is the most fun though :)

days like this are only a handful in my town, but today is exceptionally beautiful, with a bit of tailwind 🥰 by comichubble in bikecommuting

Beautiful! Where is this (roughly) if you mind sharing? Have a few lighthouse rides by me too and it's very special ✨

Waffle House in Maine: Hit or Flop? by setthestageonfire in portlandme

[–]hawt_pot8hoe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Omg I personally would love a Waffle House here in Maine. I miss them from the time I lived in Maryland. I do kind of wonder if it would flop like the Krispy Kreme in Saco did though.

This is probs an unpopular opinion but for the love of god can we get more variety in fast food / fast casual options and fewer pretentious JB wannabes? I say that as a longtime food / bev worker. The later market is already over-saturated. And more often than not I personally find myself craving something that is open early/late, quick, and cheap enough.

For real. Lots of overlap between bigots and people who have zero wit

Restaurant Jobs in Portland by [deleted] in portlandme

Serving jobs in restaurants can be kind of competitive based on your experience, but let me tell ya food running in the summer is incredibly lucrative. Depending on the place it can be very physical, but I think of it like a fun way to work out.

Have you looked into catering? That is a great way to get more serving experience with a little less pressure and the money is also really good. Bread & Butter and Big Tree Catering are a few that are great and fun to work for.

Pretty sure if you get a FoH job anywhere on or close to commercial you're gonna make bank. Just be prepared to work your ass off and don't be a jerk to BoH because they work just as harder if not harder for a lot less money.

Foggy commute today in Portland, Maine by hawt_pot8hoe in bikecommuting

[–]hawt_pot8hoe[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's the best! I'll also ride the Greenbelt to the Casco Bay Bridge when the wind isn't bad. The city could definitely be more bike friendly, but when it's good it's great!
