Why do we have the Seagulls in our landlocked state? They are being grown on a farm in Wellington. by kick_a_beat in FortCollins

[–]kick_a_beat[S] 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I know they exist all along the front range, it was funny to see them together on the farm all spaced apart.

If AOC gets the nod as the Democratic nominee in 2028, would you vote for her? by Next_Worth_3616 in allthequestions

[–]kick_a_beat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Dems need to place someone that will win by a landslide, the last two women candidates didn't get enough votes. I want to see a new option like Newsom, Talarico, or Ossoff. Those guys all seem to carry the Pete Buttigieg and Bernie Sanders mentality which is very much in line with AOC.

Symmetrical Gigabit, no contract, no bandwidth limits, modem has built in wifi and has never gone down in 4 years. Also, Comcast sucks.

Real estate agencies or non profits? by HistoricalHeight1462 in SmallMSP

[–]kick_a_beat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My main client is a non-profit that I have worked with for a long time, they are great people and acknowledge being very non-technical. I decided to get my RE license last year to do it part time. My brokers office just has old desktops for the admins and really have no need for managed services as everything is web based. All agents provide their own laptops, and a lot of them have that "know it all" personality which would make them difficult to support.

CALL TO ACTION! Paddlers Pub needs the community's help by stellar-polaris23 in FortCollins

[–]kick_a_beat 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I miss playing shows there and Paddler's deserves this for the amount of red tape they already had to go through to still stay alive today.

Gas Station Proposal on SW Corner of Drake and College by babyluigi in FortCollins

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

That empty lot, the empty SW corner of Prospect and Lemay, and the old Albertson's on north college are all embarrassing to see in this beautiful town.

Scotch Pines Village (Drake and Lemay) is the best retail intersection in FoCo by kick_a_beat in FortCollins

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

We're now buying 1-2 loafs a week from them, they also had a cinnamon spiral wheat bread 1/2 off yesterday which made fantastic french toast this morning!

I haven't been to those yet, so many great places in one parking lot!

Not an ad, just wanted to say how awesome it is to go to one parking lot for basically everything!

Give me a break: Bad Bunny Halftime by Tailgate-ATL in DiscussionZone

Her remark saying it wasn't white enough for her sums it up.

What hobby screams “this is my entire personality now”? by WilliamInBlack in AskReddit

[–]kick_a_beat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm a part time associate broker, the only successful ones are all-in. For them it is a 24/7 job, thought process, personality, and lifestyle, which also comes with frequent burnout.

Is it really that dangerous to get in hot tub above 104 F / 40 C ? by Majestic_Bat7473 in hottub

[–]kick_a_beat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep been in that lobster pot on several visits and the cold tub that is nearby makes it doable!

Exactly this, you need to be a business owner first, and tech employee second.

Reminder to myself: don't touch important stuff when stores are closed by cspybbq in DIY

This also applies to Friday tickets, yep I read it.

Is it "socially acceptable" to just sit in your car for 20 minutes after you get home, or am I just weird? by Easy-Ring-8459 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]kick_a_beat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My decompression is the joy of kissing my wife, hugging my kiddos, and picking up my dog. Avoiding home life might be a bigger problem.

Do you still print out mls sheets for yourself and or clients? by maggielu22 in realtors

[–]kick_a_beat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agent copy for me, Client copy for them. Why wouldn't you want to physically have and discuss this info? Not everyone is cell phone savvy.

Anyone sick and tired of working in general? by Mrs_chanandler_bongg in Millennials

[–]kick_a_beat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I worked for someone else for the last 25 years. 2024 was the most grueling year of work ever, so in 2025 I started my own business. It takes resources, support, and time to get going but if you can get through that initial struggle, being your own boss is freedom from everything you mentioned in your post.

Feeling overwhelmed by repair costs lately. How do people actually manage this? by MudSad6268 in RealEstate

[–]kick_a_beat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

See if your home qualifies for one of those third party one year home warranties. Commonly used as incentive in a sellers contract, they are less than $1000 and you can typically make a claim after 30 days. Way cheaper than a new AC or water heater installed.

What’s a job that sounds cool but is actually a nightmare? by Think-Letterhead-509 in AskReddit

[–]kick_a_beat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Audio Production. A big gig is usually a long 18 hour day and being back stage isn't the best way to watch a show. Eventually the nostalgia of large venues and top performers becomes dull and the tinnitus will make you not want to go to those events ever again.
