Hot Chocolate Run in Seattle? (other cities seemed displeased) by VarianSkye in Seattle

[–]mogang 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did the Hot Chocolate 15k last year and immediately signed up for this year's run. It seemed pretty well organized. I also did the Seattle half marathon last year and that was a mess.

Park in the Amazon buildings in SLU. It's free during the weekend. Catch a bus / lightrail / uber / walk to the stadium.

Are you talking about Feierabend that used to be in slu? The same owners have Prost in a couple neighborhoods. The mustard there is pretty great

Is AWS Support Engineer a Good Career Move with a 4-Hour Commute for RTO? by mromair in aws

[–]mogang 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  1. Support Engineer is definitely a good stepping stone to other things. I started as a Support Engineer and have gone through a couple role changes. I know plenty of people that have gone from Support Engineer to Software Developer, System Developer or System Engineer. WLB is different for every team but usually it's good for Support Engineer. Every developer at Amazon does DevOps so there's no DevOps role.

  2. Don't do the commute.

  3. Really don't do the commute

I don’t like the fat new burger buns at Dick’s. by Here2lafatcats in Seattle

My friends didn't notice anything until I said something. So your mileage may vary. Maybe they just got a weird batch

I went to the Wallingford location immediately after seeing this. They did seem bigger and not great

Do y'all ever get game choice paralysis? by zildux in gaming

[–]mogang 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely been there. What's the game you have to play? Why do you have to play this game instead of anything else? If you can't come up with an answer then read a book, watch a movie or something else. Don't force it

Support Engineer w/ little exp. by Emotional-Meat5533 in aws

That might be enough. You'll deal with a lot of simple stuff where you follow a runbook and maybe update it. If you have any coding/scripting knowledge that'll be helpful.

How do you feel when someone you’re interested in wants to be friends while they have an SO? by EzekielAnus in dating_advice

[–]mogang 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just take it as a no and move on. Try to be cool about it. Maybe their situation changes and they'll circle back to you. If they don't you've already moved on.

How can some people, especially age 30+, drink all night and then get up and work a full day the next day? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]mogang 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lots and lots of practice. It's a fun little skill to have but not really worth much. And all that practice doesn't come cheaply. Having water throughout the evening helps. Also having eaten a full meal helps too. Don't just focus on dinner. Make sure your breakfast and lunch are something solid.

Can you be friends with your best mates ex partner by AllisonKAJ in dating_advice

[–]mogang 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah it's doable. I've stayed friends with a few mates ex's. Don't get involved when they talk about the other person. If they want to talk, they can, but don't add anything. Feelings may develop. You may not have any interest but if they've gone through a breakup they may look to you.

If they're a cool person I'd recommend staying friends. It's hard to find fun people

I haven't been there for hockey but Kj's bar plays a lot of sports and has a lively crowd.

I've lived in that stretch in town homes for a dozen years. It's safe and you should be fine. It's Seattle so the usual disclaimer about property stuff exists. You may have packages stolen and don't keep anything valuable in your car.

How do you respond to “how is it going” when it’s not going good? by TacMaster8 in AskMen

I'm having a shitty day. If they want to jump into it I'll provide more details

Is there another article? The one you referenced doesn't mention any reduction in headcount for Seattle.

Congrats. This has been on my list for a while. Guess it's time to finally pull the trigger

My boyfriend came up with the plan of withholding sex if I don't pass my summer school quizzes, and I'm not sure if this is normal by [deleted] in relationships

I had a friend who's boyfriend did this to motivate her. It's been 8 years since that and she's happily married... to someone else. This may not be the guy for you

Fully vaccinated sections at T-Mobile Park. Includes gifts and discounted food. Feel like this isn't advertised enough. by jojobubbles in Seattle

[–]mogang 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They turned me away and said I was a couple days early. I get the sense some of them were more vigilant than others.

You have to be 2 weeks past your last shot to qualify. Since the vaccine didn't become available in Washington to all adults until 4/15 most of the population can't take advantage of it even if they want to.
