Back story…I’m 40 with an Art degree (not a wise choice in hindsight), been in logistics and warehousing most of my life, but I need more money and a career in which my hard work will be rewarded. Hard work has just gotten me more work, but no reward.
I’ve been a my current employer 3 years...
Wanted to see if some of you fine folks had a similar experiences.
The wife and I purchased a ‘fancy’ washer and dryer from Best Buy online about 2 years ago. We also purchased a 5 year Best Buy/Geek Squad warranty. The washer has been very problematic and has had several warranty repairs...
Happy Monday everyone.
I will try to keep this short: my pregnant wife was laid off due to the virus. My wife made significantly more than I do, so even with her collecting unemployment, our budget has changed a lot.
Her plan was to take maternity leave plus extra time off when we have our...
Wife is going on a work trip to Nashville. I decided to go last minute. I want to see the sights (and eat some good food). Where should I go? I’ll be there tomorrow through Wednesday.

I remember this story. I’m sure the government will keep an eye on him for a long while. He was let out early for “good behavior”....
The background: 3 years ago I left an Company A to seek more money and advancement, which did not pan out. I did this 2 more times within those 3 years. I was decently paid, however I was very unhappy with the positions. I ultimately wished to be back with Company A. After some time, my old...
Long story short, I’m looking to possibly trade/sell my 2017 Focus ST DD. It’s a base car with no frills. I need something with an auto and something with a bit more room (wife has never been comfortable driving a manual..plus we the “let’s have babies soon” talk weekly.
Is there anything out...
I will try to keep this short: my wife got a great job offer last month and we will likely move one state over. She is in traveling sales, so it will be better for her overall. We have thought of moving before, so now is the time. We would be moving at the end of March.
I also work in sales...
Been with my new employer 7 weeks now. The new job excitement quickly wore off. The job description was spot on, but the inefficiency of operations and having to fix others mistakes is wearing on me already.
I'm honestly filled with regret. I'm pushing forward, because the pay is decent and...
Figured I'd trying posting here.
Talked a dealer in Columbia, SC down to 23,200 out the door price on a brand new ST1. That price includes the general incentives. He won't haggle anymore. I told him I'd take a day and think about it.
Good price?
I've always had a short temper, but luckily I never had it like my dad. He always had a very short fuse (never abusive or anything, just hot headed in a split second). Otherwise, he was a kind hearted joke maker.
Every other day, I find myself getting frustrated over small issues here and...
Hello SVTPers! I will try to keep this as short as possible.
My girlfriend and I may be moving to San Francisco, CA. Her company has offered her a promotion which will take her from Columbia, SC all the way to San Francisco, CA. We have discussed our relationship and don't want to do the...
I bumped into someone in the company truck. I had a heavy load in the back and didn't account for it increasing my stopping distance. I braked hard but had just momentum left to bump the guy in front of me. Luckily he was ok.
The trooper was very polite, but did find me at fault. He issued me...
As the title states, how did you know she was the one you wanted to marry? Any specific things that made you go out to get a ring and pop the big question?
Question also applies to the ladies on the board. ;)
Hey guys and gals,
I picked up some factory alloys for my Cherokee. Got a good deal on them, however the lips of the wheels were spray painted black. I'd like to remove this spray paint as the rest of the wheel is in good condition.
So far I've tried acetone (in a test area) which works...
I say unisex because I'm no peeping Tom, lol. It was out in the warehouse at work. I just opened the door and there she was. No one ever knocks since its a noisy environment. She obviously didn't lock the door. Girl is a temp that just started a couple days ago. I only saw a leg before she...
Another misfire thread! I've searched and found some helpful info, but I wanted to throw a question out there.
My daily driven 140K mile '97 Cobra (stock minus an O/R x-pipe and mufflers), just started with a misfire today. I drove it all day yesterday without issue. I started it this...
Hi guys and gals,
My girlfriend and I are looking to take a trip here for our anniversary. Anyone ever been? Have any places to stay that you'd recommend?
Thanks!
UPDATE: I put in for the position. They also been interviewing external candidates for the position. I'm hoping for an interview next week. Thanks for the honest opinions everyone.
There is a supervisor position opening up at work. I was told by my direct lead that I should apply (she...
Hey guys and gals,
I was browsing some parts websites and found some Dorman or Moog front control arms (can't remember the brand off the top of my head). They've got new ball joints and rubber bushings.
Anyone ever use these arms?
Going to an afteroon (2:30) wedding this weekend.
Going to a Catholic church in the middle of August South Carolina heat. Went to a July wedding last year in my suit, and roasted my behind off.
Would you wear: A suit, or slacks/shirt/tie?
Just wanted some opinions from SVTP. Thanks...
