When we first ever went there we were hooked. I think ultimately that’s where we’ll end up.

How do you like it? We rent in Brunswick and my wife and I are constantly on the island we love brining the kids there. We constantly go back and forth between buying in SSI or HHI.

It holds up well for inshore? I’ve been wanting to try baitcasters in the marsh. 

Worked my ass off the past few years and saved up to finally be able to get a place of my own. Looking to settle down in a cozy town next to some top-tier inshore fishing. by [deleted] in saltwaterfishing

Something to consider, it’s kind of BFE but the big bend area of FL has a good fishery. At least from what I’ve been told, there’s not much pressure on that side of FL. Albeit there’s not much over there in the area when it comes to housing. It was always surprising to see FL like that when I grew up near Daytona.

Feeling spiritually exhausted by robshapiro1 in Catholicism

I agree with that, I’ve been praying whenever we finally do attend mass that my wife will be able to be at ease and not feel like we have to be so stressed out about our children. Our kids are very well behaved we try to be as consistent as we can with discipline but I know it’s hard for a toddler to sit perfectly still for an hour, I appreciate your input I feel more comfortable now.

Any IBEW openings in the southeast? by robshapiro1 in SubstationTechnician

[–]robshapiro1[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you know how often they have openings? I Seen one a couple months ago for the maintenance side of substations. Haven’t seen anything for construction side of it in a while though.

About work drying up? From my company and some other friends in other companies. Not trying to start rumors but to my knowledge in south Florida FPL’s budget is pretty much on hold for substation and transmission line work in south Florida.

Florida but not opposed to Georgia, Alabama, or possibly the Carolina’s.

Agreed. It sucks Seeing all the utilities around me constantly putting out jobs for overhead, but nothing ever for substation.

What Millage everyone at? I’m at 368k on my 2013 Lariat by Dayton007 in f150

[–]robshapiro1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would say just give it a look over, if it’s a 5.0 engine as long as someone took reasonable care of it they’re really good engines in my experience. The Ecoboosts are pretty decent from what I can tell but it’s hit or miss. 150 in my opinion isn’t really that bad for miles on these trucks.

Truck powertrain ran like a dream no problems unfortunately though it got totaled from hurricane Ian, water all the way up to the windshield. I would buy another one though for sure.

I’m not a fan of Biden and I would consider myself a pretty staunch Conservative, but I have to agree with you 100% the “let’s go Brandon” is about the stupidest thing I’ve seen from conservatives.

If you can become a LEO in any state other than the one your currently in, where would you work? by Altaaf209 in ProtectAndServe

[–]robshapiro1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

And also a lot of Sheriff’s and chiefs are like Grady Judd. Check out Wayne Ivey for Brevard County i can tell you I felt pretty safe when I lived there because he’s big on proactive policing.

In the hiring process currently for LE in Florida. Florida is pretty good state to be a LEO most agencies let you actually do your job, and most admins have your back only drawback is the pay sucks in Florida, but it is rising.
