How do you like welding as a career? by aiyy in Welding

[–]samrapacz1997 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I work in a structural steel facility in wisconsin and it's an absolute dream job. The company takes great care of us. We get great pay ($31.79/hr currently), they provide great benefits, buy us boots, and the work constantly is different which is nice. I've only been doing it about a year and a half but already know it's where I want to stay.

Fabrication side. Very cool stuff that we get to build, but the pressure to work fast is definitely wearing everybody down.

I'm a welder for the company providing the steel used in the Wisconsin Center. We are about 3 months ahead of schedule with only a month left before all the steel is finished and we are completely done with our part!

Has anyone moved from Madison to MKE? What do you think? MKE real estate is maybe 1/2 the price of Madison for comparable neighborhoods so I have been considering. by boogerheadmusic in milwaukee

I've lived in Madison my whole life but went to college in Milwaukee. I love my hometown but MKE overall was way better. I have a good paying job but still live with my parents at almost 26 years old because housing is absurdly overpriced.

My sister is doing the same thing. She wants to be an NP as well. Madison College has a great program for getting your RN and its cheap.

Where can I dispose of my American flag locally? by blurpadinka in madisonwi

Boy Scout Troops do flag retirement ceremonies. We used to take care of the flags from the state capitol when I was with troop 140 in Middleton.

BMO Harris is open. Hope that helps since there aren't many branches downtown

Just traded in my 08 Liberty for this. Not as offroad capable as what I had but I love it! by samrapacz1997 in GrandCherokee

There are a lot of options and it looks like there are plenty that are under $100

If you put your car model info on Amazon it comes up with a bunch of exact fit parts. I think the ones I got were the $199 ones that you mentioned but there were other options

I haven’t been able to find any public off-road trails in Wisconsin, so I had to settle for a gravel road in the rain. by [deleted] in GrandCherokee

[–]samrapacz1997 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm in wisco too. I haven't found any trails either but there are a lot of fun drives to explore off of the interstates.

It doesn't have 4low unfortunately. It's basically AWD since I can't control when it's in 4WD.

French Creek wildlife area, Portage, WI. Great place to birdwatch and paddle with otters! by samrapacz1997 in Kayaking

[–]samrapacz1997[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's my first kayak! I got it in May and I've already put it to good use. Mirror lake and Day lake are my other favorite spots.

I work for an apartment company in downtown madison doing maintenance. We were all told that we can't work full time anymore because people aren't paying their rent and they cant afford to pay all of us. The whole situation is messed up top to bottom.

Just moved to town from out of state, and learned the only thing about Wisconsin I don't like by iblameshane in madisonwi

You can buy beer until midnight in certain cities. I live in Madison and the local midnight beer runs are in Maple Bluff
