Bumping this just to say patio/cover companies suck. After giving up for a few months in trying to find a reliable patio company that can quote the job and simply follow-up, I gave it one more shot. I reached out to another firm and at first it was awesome.
I gave them drawings of what to build, and they came out to look and drew up a quote within a day. They then provided two references which were solid. I sent them an email to send me their final quote to address a few open items. Ghosted.
This now makes something like 7 firms that just simply have blown us off, even though they say they want the work, can do the work, and I didn't even negotiate them down on price at all. And instead of just saying they are too busy, they just never got back to us. And no, our requirements are not unusual or unreasonable and we aren't dickheads. It's just a bunch of terribly run companies. Amazing.
So, we are back looking at boats. If I can't get a patio/cover built, I might as well have some other recreational activity to do this summer.
Have you tried Cutters Landscaping? I haven't used them but I know the owner and have been impressed with some of the builds he's shown me that they've done.

Can anyone point me in the direction of someone good/reasonably priced to review an 8 page employment agreement. Looking for a review on behalf of the employee (me) and in the PE/real estate industry.

I'm thinking hard about doing some passive, apartment and/or mobile home syndication investment. Total return in the apartment syndication industry I think is benchmarked at 12-15% annually, but with mobile homes it can be up to 30% which is pretty insane for being silent partner and not having to do any of the work or go out to Kansas/Iowa/Nebraska.
You might be surprised how competitive the mobile home space has gotten. Certainly more meat left on the bone out there than conventional MF but the sector has tightened up quite a bit in the last 5-10 years. I'd make sure you're investing with an operator with experience in the space... it seems simple enough (and it's not rocket science) but there really is a lot of shit that comes up operating a park than you can't imagine going in.
Sidenote- Contrary to what my username may suggest, my experience isn't actually from living in one.

Seek therapy. If BMDs wanted to donate to save jobs in the athletic department I'm sure CDC would have taken the money. Blame the fat cats, not him.
This... I thought the buyout was funded entirely by BMD donations for that specific purpose?

Surly is probably one of the few corners of the internet where this guy is going to get props/support. Don't change.

Wasn’t going to gloat but I’m up 250% since that post.
Happy to put it on a tee for you... very nice.
My buddy played on an independent baseball team in California named after / sponsored by Dogecoin so I had some familiarity. Should've pulled the trigger when I started seeing it pop up this morning.

I'm betting once this is over people and wsb types lose faith in the traditional market and move to crypto harder. I also am hoping that Doge coin will get meme'd to the moon, so I went heavy on it today.
Where'd you get in? Hit .05 a little bit ago, back down in the mid .04s now.

Has anybody checked in on @Nicole44?

I keep saying to cordon off a portion of Zilker and get some fema trailers or the like and have them be in one area where they can be efficiently helped.
Fuck. That.

In the APD Booking thread, why do many of the homeless people have such irregularly shaped heads/faces?

519 days from the day he joined the site to his last post. His total post count at 6099, so 11.75 per day. Vanished.
He's gotta be here somewhere... feel like we could make an educated guess by narrowing it down to posters who joined within ~30 days of The Pegg-ening that have shown ~same activity level.

If y'all could make one suggestion to the CTRMA board about transit in the area....what would it be?
More dipshits on scooters

Fuck. Hard one to stomach.
My condolences to those of you who sound like you might have known the victim. Can't imagine what that family is going through.

Shit- "Multiple loud explosions just sounded at the doc’s office. APD announced it would be sending a robot in, seconds later a loud blast and what sounded like multiple shots. Silence since. Scene now"

Piecing it together, looks like it could be holzman?
From the bios, she's the only one who has a husband that's listed as another doctor so that could make some sense.

Not a great week for us, my dudes.
I still long for the day we take down the Tesla. I only own ~6% of the pool so I will make the most of my 1.8 days per month.
