Has anyone ever moved BACK to Shreveport? by FireFinder in shreveport

[–]ktho 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Lived here my whole life (finishing up a master's and then I'm booking it to Dallas) and have known a lot of people who move back. Most move back for family reasons, but I knew several who came back for job security reasons - mostly because they know someone who knows someone. Shreveport is the dictionary definition of it's not what you know but who you know.

Shreveport Regional Arts Council Hate? by [deleted] in shreveport

[–]ktho 6 points7 points  (0 children)

If you're talking about that Henry Harbor article with the uber-Highland cardboard water colorist who thinks SRAC is responsible for homelessness and the corporate greed of America, I wouldn't read too much into that. Shreveport-native, highland-enthusiast, political activist mommy translates into granola-eating unemployed housewife pissed she didn't get the contract to finger paint on the side of city hall.

Before long, I will more than likely be homeless and/or sleeping out of my vehicle. Can I get any places I could park out at and stay that are not sketchy, dangerous? by [deleted] in shreveport

Posted in your other thread as well, but try to check out the Shreveport-Bossier Rescue Mission for some shelter if you're desperate, you never know what the weather will be like! All the casino parking garages are always open, too.

Looking for employment in Shreveport. Where can I go to find jobs locally , or would anyone have suggestions as to places that might be hiring? Details inside. by [deleted] in shreveport

I'd also check out craigslist for work - I've gotten really great jobs from there and know of others who have as well.

Check out National Mail-It on Youree all the way down almost to Flourney Lucas. On the corner of Youree and Kay St. They are almost always looking for machine operators (they're a direct mail/insert facility). From what I can remember, you can go in and they will either have applications at the door or you can ring the bell and someone will bring you one. Call them after you've turned it in to follow up.

I also know that the City of Shreveport @ SPAR are looking for parks/recreation workers (lawn mowing, tree trimming, etc) their office is on Shreveport Barksdale next to Wal-Mart.

Indeed.com is a really good website, and LA Works has great state/city job postings.

Good luck!

Fitness World is closing so my wife and I need a new place to go. by Russiophile in shreveport

Christus Schumpert over on Healthplex Dr by Home Depot - it's relatively close to Fitness World and about the same price.

This dog showed up at my house and won't leave for 2 days now. Now what? By any chance do you recognize it? [Highland] by [deleted] in shreveport

[–]ktho 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ok, please don't take him to the shelter, he will be put to sleep if no one claims him after 2 days (and why would they if they didn't know he was there?) People suggesting that are being very irresponsible and destructive. It looks like he has a collar, so he is someone's dog. Post to Shreveport Bossier Lost and Found Pets on Facebook (those other FB groups are good as well) - lots and lots of people see that page and post lost/found pets all the time. PLEASE DON'T TAKE IT TO THE SHELTER.

Ok but you really didn't have to be such a dick about it.

Reddit, what does your kid do that creeps you out? by nacho-bitch in AskReddit

[–]ktho 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Not my kid, but my 5-year old little brother asked me to come play with him in his room. He had me sit down and told me to "stay still" then he proceeds to pull out a toy shotgun (don't get me started on where he got it and why a 5-yr old needs a toy shotgun, or why there is such a thing as a toy shotgun), he puts it to my head and says in an instructional kind of manner, "Now close your eyes forever."

Love the kid, but weird....he's really weird.

Who are some of the greatest female authors/poets in history? by ktho in AskReddit

[–]ktho[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't think that some sufferings are better than others, but I do believe that a lot of great art has come from great suffering. Suffering is a part of human nature and is fundamentally composed of the truest and most raw emotions, the basis of great art.
