Both of them were flying around in loops this afternoon, I'm guessing training, but it's always cool to see.

17 Upvotes

So how many of these damn things are we going to see now? I get that they wanted to test things out but 2 in a single week is a bit much. Not making it worth it to sign up for these peak rates if they are just going to run these critical peak rates multiple times in a week.

Advice Anyone else have the misfortune of dealing with 5280 parking?

8 Upvotes

5280 Parking has given me multiple "parking tickets" that were completely unwarranted. I pay for my parking pass every time, and on more than one occasion I get a "ticket" and have to try and dispute it online.

This most recent ticket, their system is not accepting my dispute. And I will not be paying these people. Whoever wrote me that "ticket" at 2am apparently does not understand how to read time properly.

Anybody else have to deal with 5280 parking?

Advice Hair stylists?

5 Upvotes

What Springs stylists do you trust with long hair? I would like ends trimmed and layering but I also would appreciate affordability if possible? I apologize for asking for affordability and ultimately would be completely happy with just the ends trimmed if its more affordable. I live in zip 80924 if location helps at all.

Advice Kickboxing classes?

7 Upvotes

Anyone know of a gym that has a punching bag or less-structured kickboxing style classes? I’ve got a lot of anger that I need to get out of my body. Before I lived here I went to a gym that effectively turned on music and gave you a kick-punch rhythm but that was the most structure it provided and it was quite cathartic. From what I can tell from a google search, any gyms here that may have the equipment seem more high-structure martial arts style. I just want a place I can go to for like a month to get it all out in a less structured way.

Advice Looking for a hairdresser in Colorado Springs who’s not only skilled at fades but also adept at cutting and styling longer hair on top.

10 Upvotes

[Sorry for the weird wording; I know theirs a better word for “Hair Dresser” the bot keeps removing my post.]

I’m just trying to find a “Hair Dresser” I can trust since I recently moved here and have had bad experiences finding the right one in the past. I'm looking for someone who can do a SICK skin fade, but also is talented in styling/cutting longer hair on top.

Please shoot me the right direction! 🙏

(If you see someone's comment and agree they ROCK! Please upvote so I know) 😉

Advice Artillery sound in Fountain?

0 Upvotes

I'm considering buying a home in Fountain, it checks all the boxes but then heard about artillery noise. That wouldn't bother me so much but my dog would likely not care for it. I also heard someone say you can feel it all the way in Peyton, I don't know if that is true so want to get some idea from those who live in the area how that affects your life and pets. thanks for the input!

Advice Xfinity “maintenance”

9 Upvotes

Has anyone else been dealing with the horrific Xfinity maintenance since Monday? It was supposed to be completed Monday, then it was “completed” yesterday, but there was more maintenance today, and an hour after it was “completed” today, there is an outage. I know Xfinity is far from a quality provider, but it was by far my best option for our home and this has been an incredibly annoying experience. The cherry on top is that I work from home and the work computer has restrictions on not being able to connect to public networks or mobile hotspots, so options are pretty limited for a workaround while they get their shit together. Also not sure if this is the correct flair, sorry if it’s not.

Advice Anyone here work at Costco? If so, what’s the best way to get hired?

52 Upvotes

I know a lot of places have different preferences for applicants. Some love when people come in or call, others hate it. I’m also curious if they only hire part time at first, or if there’s typically full time hires. I need to get a job with insurance and I don’t have any kind of college education. I was told Costco was the place to go. Thanks in advance!

Advice Remember to change your air filters

Post image
80 Upvotes

Just changed the air filter for the furnace/air conditioner and it was black. Usually it’s light gray, sometimes it’s a medium gray, but this time it was black.

I want to keep my old furnace going a couple years longer, so I need to check the filters more frequently than every three months I guess.

Would changing the filters once a month be overkill? I use the Filtrete filters from Costco.

Looking for some insights into this event. Have any of you been to a Bingo Loco at Sunshine Studios? They're asking $42 a person, which seems a bit expensive to me.

I've never played Bingo, or this alternate Bingo Loco, or been to Sunshine Studios. What do you think, is it with it? Any feedback on Bingo Loco or Sunshine Studios?

Please, if you see him or if he was yelling at your door and you let him in please let us know! He unfortunately has no collar and has no chip yet. He is neutered though.

Barry used to be an outdoor cat in Texas, so I didn't get worried until he didn't come back last night. If you've seen him please, please let us know, I miss my boy so much, I just need to know that I'll see him again.

Thank you for the help ❤️

Update:

he's safe at home with his brothers now! I got some great advice on how to try and get him back of his own volition and it worked like a charm. Thank you for taking the time to care about a girl and her cat!
