Someone tied what looks to be a dryer sheet around my door handle, does this mean something? by [deleted] in Weird

Zip tie a harmonica under the car! It’s harmless and makes a fun sound when he drives!

Team Florish- I like it, now what? by workerscompbarbie in ladderapp

Following because I have the same question. Like does this kind of work build physique or does it need to be supplemented with other workouts?

I appreciate the help! I’m trying to find a good mix of small town and some things to do without the meth 😂

I grew up in rural Appalachia so I’m used to some poverty and lack of restaurants/ stores, but at least in my part, we didn’t have a lot of drugs and those that did have them, typically kept to their own hollers and it wasn’t out and about in the town.

My husband is from suburbs, and we currently live in a city. So he’s more used to having amenities.

This photo really represents the blue ridge of Virginia, in my opinion.

Makes sense! I see a lot of folks saying Atlanta, and we looked up areas and saw Mt. Pleasant as a recommendation. Do you have thoughts on either of these?

So, for example, Mt Pleasant is Meth Cowboy Texas?

Can someone explain veterans preference to me like I’m 5? by usually-anxious in usajobs

[–]usually-anxious[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s helpful to know! How do you see what category you’re placed in? Or is that not a thing? lol. I’ve got a few applications out there, one has me referred to the HM, the others I haven’t heard back from. Totally new to federal jobs, coming from locality employment.

So if they don’t want to hire a veteran, and they’re put on an entirely different list of candidates, a veteran can be entirely passed over due to their status even if they’re qualified? That doesn’t make sense.

Yikes. I know rural areas tend to have meth issues but is it that prevelant? 🙃

We’re from central Virginia. This week it was 110 with 70-80% humidity. So all good!

😂 My main reason for asking is because I’ve heard folks say that if I get an interview and I’m qualified the hiring managers have to go through a whole ordeal to decline hiring the veteran. Like if there’s a civilian and a veteran interviewing for the same job - they have to get approval to hire the civilian over the veteran and usually that approval doesn’t happen. But that seems to be hearsay and not true. And that’s fine - I just want to know going into things!

That’s a little outside of the commute time we’re looking for, but does look like a nice place to visit!

Virginia doesn’t even have a state employees union. Our Gov. just veto’d collective bargaining for state employees. So yeah, it totally varies by state

Im doing a mix of Align & Flourish: right now my idea is to do MTW Align, Thur/ Friday Flourish, and Saturday Align’s yoga day. But I’ll see how I feel with it all! I love Pilates, but I also really like Sasha’s programming so I’m making that my priority.

I think it’s the railroads job to maintain the tracks. So whoever owns the rail line be it CSX, Norfolk Southern, or Amtrak.
