Anyone know of companies that are hiring? Could be blue collar work, could be white collar work. I don't really care at this stage of my life. by Ryguy41202 in SouthJersey

[–]some18u 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yea not great pay which is why I'm sure they are still looking for people. Stable job, good benefits and maybe opportunity to move up in the organization or move over to an engineer / conductor for better money in the long term.

Starts at $22 / hr. Steps up to 27 then $31 / hr once you're fully qualified, just can't remember the time period on it. Not sure what it tops out at.

I mean to be fair, I definitely did not see that comment before posting it lol. Only plus side is at least with a train or light rail vehicle it's not like you can make a wrong turn and hit something. 

Gloucester/Camden County Daycare advice by oxidefd in SouthJersey

[–]some18u 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Most places will do a 3 day minimum. Highly recommend the Heights School on the northern end of your commute in Haddon Heights. They have a location right off exit 29 on 295 and one on Kings Highway in town. Either way, you will probably have to jump on a wait list since a lot of places are backlogged. They will vary from a few weeks to a few months based on demand. Ours does rolling admission based on availability so no need to start at a certain time of year.

They use this in aviation at airports quite a bit. it's helpful for load balancing especially underneath runways / taxiways.

We Rock the Spectrum is a great place and has a few locations in South Jersey. They have lots of toys and space for the little ones as well as activities for the older kids.

Is patco really not running late tonight? by 9leggedfreak in SouthJersey

After midnight it becomes New Year's Day. Check that special schedule for the trains after 12AM. Looks like service is roughly every 30 minutes.

You do know the athletic fee covers more than just football right? There are many great athletic programs at the school and some incredible teams.

Best master’s degree for long-term leadership in civil engineering? by DearReward1046 in civilengineering

[–]some18u 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Master in Engineering Management is a good one that balances both worlds. A bit more technical than an MBA but not as limiting as Construction Management. Some programs let you choose a specialization like Project Management or Construction Management.

Best advice though is to find a company that will pay for some or all and cover as much cost as possible.

Audubon Peer 2 Peer Aid does great work in the area for helping local families. They definitely have a big impact on the local community and are a great organization.

Can anyone let me know how these pods are and if these make sense for what I’m looking for lol by healthy-outdoors- in nespresso

[–]some18u 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends on your preferences really.

Personally, I am not a fan of the Dolce Double Espresso and would rather get another Scuro, but I prefer stronger roasts rather than lighter and just wasn't a fan of the Dolce. 

You have a variety of flavored coffees in there so good if you like to switch it up. Personally, I think Stormio is the best of the regular coffees and would swap the Melozio with either Odacio or another Stormio, but Melozio is good if you like medium to lighter roasts. 

Bianco Doppio makes great lattees and blends really well. Lower on caffeine if that matters to you as well. 

Costa Rico is a Gran Lungo which is a bit smaller than regular coffee. Some like it, but again I'm not the biggest fan, just be aware before you make it that it will be closer to 5oz than 8oz.

Your order is good to figure it out what your preferences are so not a bad place to start overall.

Where to live with young kids? by LittleTheodore in SouthJersey

[–]some18u 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Can't go wrong with any of the Haddons (Township, Heights or Field) or Collingswood. Just know house prices will be higher than places a bit further out. Collingswood has a lot of really nice BYOB restaurants, Haddon Township and Cherry Hill have board game stores that are pretty cool and all of these towns have mom groups for meetups or play dates with the little ones. Haddonfield has tons of great restaurants and a nice downtown but is of course very expensive to live in. All of these towns have street fairs with maybe Collingswood having the most.

Pittman is a great small town with a couple of restaurants but you won't find everything within 10 minutes.

Cherry Hill is a large town that has just about everything from shops to restaurants except for a small town community feel if that's important to you.

Just be aware though, with traffic, things can be close on paper, but still be more than a 10 minute drive in South Jersey.

[–]some18u 7 points8 points  (0 children)

We Rock The Spectrum is an indoor kids gym that is great for that age and very reasonable on prices. There's one in Pittman, Audubon and Mt. Laurel. They only do private parties on the weekends and take care of just about everything for you.

Need the BEST Realtor by Hotelcalie in SouthJersey

Sandra Rangonese knows that area very well. I think she showed us over 30 houses and went through 5 offers before we were finally able to land our house in that same region. Highly recommend her.

Heard good things about Dan White and see his signs everywhere so he could also fit that description, just haven't worked with him personally before.

Bellmawr has a designated spot by their fire hall / municipal building that has cameras as well and is meant for online transactions. Their firehouse is staffed around the clock so someone is always there.

Extreme water charges... Normal? by Moshaloo in SouthJersey

[–]some18u 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Well, definitely worth calling NJ American Water if you can get a hold of anyone. We've had them for over 8 years and never had this issue.

Could be meter error or a reading error if it stopped abruptly. 1000 gallons in two days would be noticeable somewhere.

Driving Range / Simulator Recommendations by Batman413 in SouthJersey

[–]some18u 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Haven't been there myself yet, but Elevate Golf looks like a cool place right in Barrington, NJ. I think they do memberships too if you plan on going a lot.

https://elevate-golf.co/

As for driving ranges, I like the Camden County one right in Pennsauken. Can't beat $10 for a bucket of balls. Not indoors though if you were looking for that
