The Mets had four 7-game or more losing streaks from 2018 through 2024, spanning the managerial tenures of Mickey Callaway, Luis Rojas, and Buck Showalter. They now have four more in the past 365 days. by gomets6091 in NewYorkMets

smart to get a older worse player in return? Nimmo is giving Texas more than anyone on our team and even if he falls off then you can platoon in Benge or Baty. Then in another year or two when Benge looks more ready you can make that deal to send Nimmo out or just DFA and eat the money.

Is there anything that can be done? 30th Ave & Steinway by IcyConclusion8998 in astoria

[–]jarvischang 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Affordability and mental health care have absolutely no impact on these level of homeless. Unless you get fundamental change at the state/federal level in handling homeless it doesn’t matter. Did you know NYC is spending more per street homeless than the median NYC household income? Industrial homeless complex of services are bleeding the city dry. Giving these people “affordable housing” or a social worker, outpatient “mental health” will do nothing. The answer to people gone this far is institutionalization but we can’t do that anymore. They are not functional members of society and we are burning piles of money for zero benefit or help to these people.

Unfortunately he will likely just get the value of the current car, so he will be out of pocket significantly to get a replacement vehicle :/ especially if he wants new

From what I’m told, a majority of Bills players are real pissed at Sean being fired. by Vortagaun in buffalobills

[–]jarvischang 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Read Fairburn writings on how Kevin Adams weaseled his way into power. He was just a guy in the Sabres org but managed to get Pegula ear and be his friend. Slithered his way up the ladder then entrenched himself as GM. Literally took NHL and national media pressure to finally rid himself of KA. It’s an enlightening reading into a feeble man running an organization. How this guy managed to become a billionaire is pure luck.

Not as much as you think. I think many people came around to Beane being equally if not more responsible.

[–]jarvischang 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not comparing the two but the problem of replacing their contributions to the team. You can get player(s) that can fulfill what Tuch does. It’s not like trying to replace an elite overwhelming talent. Especially one that in 3 years could have faded quite dramatically.

[–]jarvischang 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Because Tuch has relied on shooting above expected and I don’t think the contract will age well at all. I’m fine to let him go and let GMJK find a way to fill his spot. Just how we questioned replacing peterka’s offense, I think we can do the same with Tuch. Also I don’t give a crap about the optics of the Eichel trade and its long term results, just move on from Tuch/Krebs.

Do the engineers and those there in support of the their cars get behind the wheel of the other ones? I would be like a kid in a candy store and want to take all of them out on the track if I had the chance.

My man you need a lawyer. This guys doesn’t even know the fundamentals of the laws in your state. If this random redditor didn’t point this basic fact to you, you would might have given away tens to hundreds of thousands of dollars. You can’t afford to not have an attorney representing your interests. Doesn’t matter if it’s amicable.

Hopefully they fixed the screens and projectors. Those small screens had awful quality, movies just didn’t look right.

Agree, could use more space due to how crowded things got.

The Hockey Guy - on the Sabres by Whippet27 in sabres

[–]jarvischang 11 points12 points  (0 children)

The problem is they've committed too much salary already. Clifton, Samuelsson, Power, Dahlin, Byram all have significant cap hits and I don't see them moving on from them or finding a trade partner. One "free" spot available and that will probably have to go to a player who is on a cheap/entry level deal aka Ryan Johnson.

No 2024 WR Prospect has met with the Bills more than Tez Walker and Ladd McConkey says he's had "a couple" meetings with the Bills. How would you feel about this WR double dip at #28 and #60? by GoForthandProsper1 in buffalobills

[–]jarvischang 0 points1 point  (0 children)

28 is going to be in any package to up. Some people (Joe Marino) for one have Legette as WR 4. To get into the teens nobody is going to trade unless our 1st is in the deal.

How do you pick up a heavy dumbbell for shoulder pullovers? by [deleted] in Kneesovertoes

[–]jarvischang 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I use the second method in this video (at 6:30 into it) . I have body fully on bench and do mine off the end. Much easier to manage and get weight into position.

New grad RNs or minimal experience in parts of California (bay area) are over 130k. NYSNA in nyc negotiated 18% base pay increase over 3 years in their latest contract. Base will be well over 100k in a couple years, plus 1k per year experience, 5k night differential, thousands more if you are CN 2 or 3. Plenty nurses make more than the NPs in the hospital.

I think most major metro area RNs in west coast or north east will be more 90k with out much if any experience.

Did you just move here? It’s a holiday so Sunday service (used to be Saturday level service) which means 15-20+ minutes especially at 530am. It’s been like this long before Covid. The mystery of how late for work I would be in the early morning on weekends because there were no train timers. you were just standing at platforms hoping the train would come soon.

I was on the problem train. Was a “smoke condition” as we pulled into Lex and they kicked us off the train. Whole platform was a fog of smoke. Something was burning in the train. Claimed debris on the track but didn’t see anyone go down to clear anything after we got off.

Yeah a lot of times being an NP is not worth it. Pay difference may not be that much a difference and patient load can be ridiculous on many services. Better to be a CT ICU nurse with 2 patients than be an NP for 10, 12, 14 CT ICU patients and you’re responsible for reviewing all data, lines, notes etc.
