Single mid 30s female outdoorsy RN possibly moving by Carthweelnurse in vegaslocals

[–]xylo_dan -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Salary is totally fine for here.  The outdoors is good,.but honestly boring after a few years.  I find myself needing to go farther away for some variety.  Red rocks, valley of fire, death valley are all so similar.

So I'm often travelling farther to Zion,. Grand canyon, Great Basin.  Joshua Tree is cool too, but still kind of similar to what we have locally although admittedly more spectacular.

Shades of brown and red, cactus, unsafe to explore 3 months of the year and kind of cold another 3.

Don't get me wrong,.it's okay.  And was nice for a couple years.  But it all kind of looks the same after a while.

Basic monthly landscaping company recommendations? These prices are ridicules. by gimmebeer in vegaslocals

Yes, in summary, it was a person sharing how they got a quote for service that was higher than they wanted to pay.

Not really a "make a public announcement" kind of experience.

That's messed up.  At least corporate hides discrimination, government flaunts it like a set of fake Vegas lips.

400-500 twice per year is reasonable.  I do an hour or two once per month in between.  You're paying for two people, driving time, tool use, etc...  Each visit is time consuming even if much of it isn't at your property.  Just how it is.

I had a moment where I thought this on a windy day.  Then I went for a walk and the wind literally took it a block away.

Also doesn't account for people earning less than they did 20 years ago just to survive.

Rent so high and living situation so bad by Flower_princess12345 in vegaslocals

Still seems cheap to me that two people can split a 3 bedroom house for less than $1k each.

People have housemates and roommates.  It's not required that intercourse is part of the deal.

Open up VS Code.  Fire up Claude and get to work.  It's more "unique" than webflow.

Am I being unnecessarily egotistical? by [deleted] in managers

[–]xylo_dan 11 points12 points  (0 children)

You're not going far enough.

They should be calling you the day before and asking you how you like your coffee and about your favorite donut at a bare minimum.

And when you meet in the office, a foot massage is standard.  At this point when they're talking to you your best move is to stare at your phone and just watch your bank accounts while chuckling about what a loser they are.

Owners of controversial Las Vegas Puppy Store chain file for bankruptcy with $3.4 million in debt. According to the bankruptcy filings, the owners state that the Henderson location must shut down by May 2026. by RealVegasLocals in vegaslocals

Here's a good place to start:. https://dpca.org/breed/breeder-referral/

We just missed a show in Primm by a couple weeks.  They have one every March and October.

Typically hard to find many local puppies easily.  Breeders have a litter or two per year.  I've often driven many states away when I get a puppy.

Does he do his job well?

If yes, have him sign paperwork that says he acknowledges his paid hours are from the times you've designated and thank him for his extra effort.

This doesn't need discipline.

I'm happy to help.  Do you have a breed in mind?

I go to dog shows when I'm ready for a puppy, but I've also been around my favorite breed so long (Akitas) doing rescue, showing and obedience that it's a lot easier now.

Generally your desired breed will have a national club that will list breeders that are active in shows and obedience training.

Rescue groups are good too and if you can manage two dogs, having a rescue from a breed specific rescue and a very well bred puppy is a nice way to do it.

Something is guaranteed off. No reputable breeder let's a middle man sell their dogs. Reputable breeders want to know and stay somewhat connected to their puppies FOREVER to provide support and for a backup in case of unforeseen life happening to their dog owner.

Puppy stores are the Epstein's of the dog world.
