The SWA subreddit is great reading right now. They have pilots and crew stuck at airports too and aren't paying for their hotels/meals. Pilots and crew with empty planes just sitting there. The crew is calling into SWA to try and get into service but having 10+ hr hold times. It's fricking...

[quote]Laplace is the cheapest and had most selection in the area. The others are only for convenience. [/quote] Thanks, I'll head out there tomorrow....

Jesus dude, do you really need that $25 right now? Are you that poor? Just wait. I returned an unopened Galaxy S22+to Best Buy to rebuy for the $800 trade in credit. The clerk kept telling me I don't want to do that b/c the $800+ wouldn't be refunded to my credit card for 5-6 business days. I to...

Same here. I think as they get older(mine are both in late 70's), it's harder to do those things like vacuum, dust, wipe down surfaces etc. They don't leave out dirty dishes, but they do have crap everywhere.

This is all such BS. I was in my early 20's in Nola in the late augts. I made $12 an hr. No benefits. 1 week unpaid vacay. I had a roommate. My car was 10 yrs old. I didn't lease a 3 series so I could give the illusion of being "rich". I didn't buy $500 handbags or $500 designer shoes. My cellphone...

I'm in medical supply purchasing and logistics and it's insane. I could have predicted this last year, but the CEO's etc were caught off guard. Major shortages in everything from needles, to gloves, Covid test kits, various tubes for blood testing etc. It's insane. Our clients are trying to over ord...

[quote]Depends on the age of the home and neighborhood. 3200 sf home here built in mid 70s—$2k annual taxes. Plus I don’t worry about crime like back in BR [/quote] Not always true. 1800 sq ft home built in the 50's. My taxes are $5800 this year. ...
