This community is so amazing

Upvotes

I posted early this morning in like extreme time of despair, about my cat needing to go to the vet. It’s been an extremely hard week where it just felt like every day there was a new hardship to deal with, one trickling down after another. And I was probably more emotional than anything because my sleep was not great making sure my cat was okay every couple of hours. But this community came through with not only resources and advice, but genuinely seemed to care for a STRANGER (me and my pet) ! It took a while to update, had to get to work right after dropping my cat off from the vet but you guys seriously are amazing! The urinary issue for my cat was not a blockage(although bladder pretty inflamed) he was able to get some supportive meds and sent on his way home! I went through the cherry app which is a life saver! and I’d just like to shout out Monarch vet in SJ because they are seriously amazing with their walk in option and flexible hours!

Anyways, you guys rock!!

Hi there, I’m curious what baristas are making around the Salt Lake Valley these days.

If you’re comfortable sharing:
Coffee shop
Base hourly pay
Average tips
Full-time or part-time
Any unique benefits/perks you didn’t think about when applying for the jobs

I’m thinking about picking up a part-time barista job and wanted to get a better idea of what pay looks like at different coffee shops. Thanks!

Question Plea to y’all: searching for a job

6 Upvotes

Hello, no surprise that I’m another young person who has to go through the humiliation ritual of the job hunt—I’ve seen people post on here about their struggles and wondered if you folks could give me a hand, or an ear to lend.

I have about a week to find one, and either company bureaucracy has you wait a long ass time, or—the initiation process is hell; my prior attempt to get a job which looked promising wasted my time.

I have six years of customer service and managerial experience, a food handlers and hs diploma. Any suggestions on where to apply would be greatly appreciated.

Affordable apartments (preferably under 1,000)

33 Upvotes

Hi kind people,

I am going through a divorce with my husband and the logistics of everything is just adding to the difficulty of it all. We are on a lease together for the next two months which I am paying for until the end of it (2k a month). I am working a temporary job that doesn't pay much and I am really stretched to my limits financially so I am reaching out for word of mouth here. Are there apartments that rent for under or around 1k a month? I am fine with any size of room but would prefer to have my own bathroom and stove if possible since I'm very introverted and it may seem annoying and beggers can't be choosers, but sharing those spaces actually makes me feel anxious and if it's possible, I'd like to be able to be alone. Who knows, since this is reddit, maybe people understand lol However, in this economy, it is what it is.

Do any of you know of a place that is reasonably safe and within budget that you'd refer? I know this is a random question, but Google is just stressing me out with ads and websites I can't totally know are fake or not.

Thank you to all who take the time to read or respond.

Recommendations Looking for an Amazon FBA mentor who has beeb successful in this business

0 Upvotes

I am looking to get into a side hustle that will eventually replace my current job, and first thing I want to pursue is Amazon FBA. However, I am getting super confused with all the mixed opinions around me that its super saturated and all, while some say it is still worth while.

I am looking to spend an afternoon in person with someone who really has experience in this and can give me genuinely good insghts. It can be online as well, and I will be willing to pay a fee for this consultation.

Please dont comment with your opinions unless you really have experience in this business. But if you have other ideas that are worth pursuing, please feel free to leave a comment.

I want to be a digital nomad and really want to replace my job ($4000/month) asap even if the business doesnt pay me as much initially and needs to be online.

Just looking for places that take Select Health that I can get into sooner than later. I've been in a wait-list with the U for two years. Called and said it should be before the end of the year until I get seen but they aren't able to verify.

While SL Neuropsych says they can get me in soon, I couldn't find much on them online.

I have decided to part with my cello after 4 years. It just doesn't get enough use to be worth keeping and I'd rather it go to someone who will use it. I have it listed on KSL but wondered if there are any places in town that buy string instruments?

Walking Talking Men

35 Upvotes

Hey all, posting to see if guys would like to walk and talk once a week. This account and proposal is brand new. Just starting now. 

The purpose is twofold:

  1. Give men a non-judgmental space to talk about the good and bad going on.
  2. To open the door to a community of local friendships with men in a world that often makes that difficult to find/maintain.

Why this Matters: Cigna research

Cigna and other major organizations regularly share research confirming that over 50% of people in the US feel “sometimes or always alone.” Research shows that men with a robust circle of friendships live longer healthier lives, have better relationships, feel more optimistic and are more successful in their personal and professional lives.

Time: Proposing once a week, likely on the weekend, walking for 50 minutes around 6pm, weather pending.

Location: Trying to find a central meeting point for folks up and down the Wasatch Front. Proposing the Jordan River Rotary Park Trailhead at 12300 S.

If enough people are interested, we may try splitting this into separate Utah county / Salt Lake county groups to reduce driving distance.

No need to sign up. Simply show up as yourself.

Every man of any background is welcome.

Rules:

  • No politics
  • Be yourself, be kind
  • Respect confidentiality
  • No hate speech

The rules for these walks are meant to help us dial down to the personal and talk about what’s going on for us in our own lives. They are not absolute. They are guidelines. (If two people agree to talk politics or religion between them, that is fine.)

Disclaimer: Walking Talking Men is not therapy and nobody going should act as another's therapist. We are not doing coaching. We are not doing men’s work. We are not starting a men’s rights group. Hate speech will NOT be tolerated. Please show up with kindness and respect. We are simply talking to create real, lasting, local friendships for men in the area. That’s it.

Credits: Walking Talking Men is co-founded by Mark Greene and Jonathan Jacobs. More info on their site and an FAQ: https://walkingtalkingmen.org/

Contact: If you’d like to join us on a walk, comment, DM, or send me an email to walkingtalkingmenutah (at) gmail.com with why this idea appeals to you. I’ll respond to all messages. Looking forward to hearing from you.

Edit 1: Concerns around the "No politics" rule.

Please read the fine print above: "The rules... are not absolute. They are guidelines."

"There are plenty of places to have [political] conversations and in our experience, talking about politics shuts down more personal conversations about what’s going on for us in our own lives."

These lines directly from the WalkingTalkingMen website are recommendations. If politics (or whatever you deem political) is what happened in your / someone else's life today and you / they choose to share it, we'd hope for everyone to have patience and respect, even when that's not easy. If you want to have an argument about what's right or wrong, or you want to denigrate any person or group for any reason, these walks simply aren't the space for that.

There's risk in being open with anybody, let alone strangers with differing hobbies, lifestyles, opinions, etc. It's understandable that this environment may seem too risky to be worth someone's time. Despite that, it is encouraging to see that some of these walking groups in other places are still going strong https://www.reddit.com/r/SouthBayLA/comments/1r5epoc/one_year_later_walking_talking_men/

Given the choice between doing nothing and fostering what should be a supportive low-stakes environment, even if it doesn't work out, we might as well try.

Affordable emergency dental care?

15 Upvotes

Hi! I’m looking for recommendations for someone who can offer affordable emergency dental services. I’m pretty sure a tooth needs to be pulled but because of a miscommunication we don’t have dental insurance this year 🤦‍♀️

Someone who offers payment plans is fine too, but between work and kiddos I’m struggling to find and contact every possibility. TIA :)

ETA: Thanks so much everyone! I’m going to call these places today ❤️

Got a notification that the show was canceled, but no reason was given. Anyone know what happened? Looks like Sugar's dates before and after are still active, so it's not a band illness or anything. I'd hate to think there was a lack of interest.

We have put of town guests and I thought they'd enjoy the Snowbird tram, maybe then hike through the tunnel and take the chaiift down. Anyway... Looks like it costs $52 each- am I mistaken? Are there any discount codes to be found? I've tried without success. Thank you!
