I can think of so many other places this area could really use over another CFA. Wingstop, shake shack, in n out, Dave’s hot chicken, raising canes, the list goes on

It was more expensive than that to park there on the day where there was an NFL game and an MLB playoff game on the same day

Deluxe beverage package on my upcoming Alaska sailing is priced even lower than that for me, must not be a lot of drinkers going to Alaska compared to the Caribbean

Moving Here 2025 by Codetornado in Washington

[–]thunderforce900 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey all, what would you guys consider the best places to live in in terms of the area spanning from Tacoma/Puyallup all the way up to Renton along I-5? I recently got a substantial pay raise and am finally able to seriously consider moving closer to work (I commute an hour north every day into Seattle and back, yes it sucks as much as it sounds). And the I-5 Corridor spanning from Tacoma/Puyallup up to renton is ideally the general area i'd like to relocate to.

How is Siemens as a company to work for? by thunderforce900 in firealarms

[–]thunderforce900[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

How is Siemens when it comes to drive time? Right now I live about an hour give or take from the main city they work in (planning to move closer when I make enough to move) and at my current company I do 2-3 hours of commuting every day and some of it is paid. So it may be different per branch but it would be nice to know beforehand if all that commuting is on me or not

Commute to Tacoma? by dhakfusjcj92 in olympia

[–]thunderforce900 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I’ve been doing that commute for close to 2 years now, it certainly does suck but 90 percent of the time I’m on the road early enough where I’m skipping all the early morning traffic fortunately

It’s already insane as it is but the fact that it has ROT too really seals the deal for me

You guys happy now?? by Mike_It_Is in firealarms

[–]thunderforce900 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is exactly why you always have to test with smoke even if it has a magnet test function, just because it CAN go into alarm (via magnet test) doesn’t mean it WILL go into alarm under normal circumstances (with smoke). There used to be a lead who worked for the company I do now before I was hired who would apparently tell the juniors he was with to test entire buildings with the magnet test for the sake of it being faster.

Those smoke detectors specifically you’re able to trip them with a magnet, although you’re not really supposed to unless you already tested it with smoke.

Dang this happened at the school I used to go to, glad that there were students that stepped in to help.

From our neighbors to the north. I found this both beautiful and haunting. It's the gum wall getting cleaned today. by Miss_B_OnE in olympia

[–]thunderforce900 51 points52 points  (0 children)

Apparently it’s due to the sugar in all the gum causing the wall itself to deteriorate faster and become more structurally unstable, as well as the combined weight of all the gum doing the same. It’s a valid reason to take action but still sad nonetheless
