I just interviewed with Mr. Moon at the Moon School of Music on Main street in Fairfax. I applied off of the job posting on Indeed and he contacted me for an interview about a month after I initially applied.

This was the worst interview I have had in my career thus far. He asked me questions and not only laughed at my answers, but mocked me and continued to give me "advice" on how I should have responded. I sat there trying not to cry as he told me that he felt that he couldn't feel my heart? What the hell? That is weird and random.

I was applying to be a receptionist at a Music school. He asked me why I wanted to work there. I gave the scripted answer of that I was interested in learning about music and connecting with people. To this, he told me I was lying and asked for a different answer. I gave one, I don't even remember what I said because I was taken aback. He then went on this 5 minute rant about how I was untrustworthy now and he could never trust me.

Why are you berating me after I told you that I wanted to learn more about music and connect with people?

Looking for a JIL church here in Fairfax. I hope I meet a Filipino there.

Hi all, I am trying to figure out why my car tax is increasing every year for a 2011 Toyota non ev vehicle. Did I miss a notice or something? Is there a new policy? see below, I did move from one fairfax zip code to another midway in 2022

I just received absentee ballot today.

I live by myself, as I remember clearly, when I received absentee ballot in 2020, I was not able to mail in absentee ballot, since it required signature from another person (maybe witness), and I did not want to bother neighbor for signature. It always ended up I voted in person, even though I did not like it.

Fairfax county absentee ballot: It seems that it does not require signature from another person (witness) any more, is it correct? When did they make the change? Just want to make sure that witness is indeed not needed anymore, and make sure that my absentee ballot is valid.

Thanks.

I am 30F looking for someone to move into one of the bedrooms of my townhouse for a monthly fee when my current roommate moves out. I live close to George Mason University and am right across from the Fair Oaks Mall. My townhouse has a driveway in the front (I park my car in the garage) with additional street parking and a small garden patio in the back. There's utilities such as kitchen appliances (refrigerator, dishwasher, oven, microwave), clothing washer and dryer, wifi, TV, AC and gas. You would get your own room and hallway bathroom as well as availability to storage spaces in kitchen and use of all three floors for lounging. The starting cost would be $1,100 a month, not counting safety deposit fee.

I have a cat so no other pets will be permitted. Please be advised if you have allergies. No smoking permitted inside the house either. Since I live here as my main residence, standards of cleanliness will be in place to be sure my home is kept in good shape and all parties have a healthy environment.

I am a rather quiet individual and like to have a calm and quiet house. I don't have many people over or make much noise. I would prefer someone of the same mindset if possible. Please feel free to reach out if you are interested and would like to further talk about accommodations.

Looking for daycare recommendations for a 3 month old in Vienna and surroundings. If you know prices, even better. TIA

Alright so my friend (female) travelled across country to Fairfax, VA, GMU to do her masters. And last Sunday a guy groped her and forcefully made out with her (apparently a guy in her friend circle). She said she's mentally disturbed and stuff on those lines. I really would beat up that guy (I want to) but i live in another country. So the fuck do i do in this situation? Can't let that guy slide

Do you have any idea how much a muay thai instructor makes? Do you also know how much per student they are paying for an instructor? Or any of you guys know a gym that teach muay thai or boxing around fairfax?

I’ve been meaning to post this but got busy. I drove all the way from TX & dropped my daughter off a few weeks ago to attend grad school and she is living in Fairfax. I was only in Fairfax for a week and spent it running around getting daughter’s new resident stuff done: apt move in, groceries, car inspection/registration, new license, library card, riding the metro, eating, chatting with strangers, shopping, has the cutest little colonial downtown area, etc. The city of Fairfax is gorgeous! And it cools off at night and in the mornings! Y’all might take it for granted but, I was so impressed that when I got back home, and recovered, I told my husband that it was too bad VA taxes military retirements because I could see myself living there! Then I spent some time on realtor.com and reality hit…there’s a BIG difference between TX home prices & Fairfax home prices! Oh well! I’ll just visit!!!

Keep in mind that this is more than just a story about 16 wealthy Johns paying for sex. Most prostitution in the NoVa area is tied to sex trafficking, some of which involves children. Wouldn't you want to know if your kid's doctor was involved in this kind of crim

If you can't afford to live here just move, no one is forcing you to stay here!

My mother told me that Governor Youngkin was on Jesse Waters last night discussing multiple recent child abductions in Fairfax County. (We have very opposite political views but we both love my children) She said one child was walking either to/from the school bus stop. Does anyone have links to information about these events? Can anyone shed light on this for me please? I don’t want this to turn in to a political post please. I just want relevant facts. Thank you so much Edit: Just to clarify, I don’t personally believe anything that comes from Jesse Waters or Fox News in general which is why I wanted any cold hard facts that I could objectively cite. Second edit: This is the incident that they were referring to. It happened in Prince William County.

Fairfax County, Virginia’s Democrats and Republicans do not agree on much, but they are joining hands across the political chasm to oppose the meals tax.

Fairfax County’s referenda to implement a meals tax, a fee imposed on the purchase of all prepared, ready-to-eat food and beverages, have failed on the ballots in 1992 (58% opposing) and 2016 (56% opposing). Beginning in 2020, the Virginia General Assembly, in all of its wisdom, allowed localities to pass such a tax without putting a referendum on the ballot directly to the voters.

Waria Salhi, a partner with Mezeh Mediterranean Grill, said, “I think it’s crazy at this time when inflation is already high, and people are barely making ends meet, and now you hit them with this tax?”

About 100 local restaurant owners join Salhi in his view and have created a group called Stop the Food Tax.

This burdensome tax is in addition to the Board of Supervisors’s decision to increase the average homeowner’s taxes this year by 6%. According to a press release from Supervisor Pat Herrity, who is the only board member to vote against considering the meals tax, these recent burdens fall on top of a 56% homeowner’s tax increase over the last 10 years.

And can we honestly say that our local government services have improved with the skyrocketing tax burden? Absolutely not.

Fairfax County’s public schools, which account for more than half of the tax burden, have declined significantly. Test scores have plummeted, chronic absenteeism and dropout rates are astronomically high, and six high schools are on the verge of losing accreditation.

Meanwhile, violent crime in Fairfax County increased 8.7% in 2023, the seventh most significant increase in the country.

Both the decline in school performance and the increase in violent crime coincide with the Fairfax County Board of Supervisors’s “Trust Policy,” passed in January 2021, to make Fairfax County a sanctuary for illegal immigrants.

While our property taxes are covering the costs of the county’s sanctuary policy and Fairfax families are struggling with inflation, Jeff McKay, chairman of the Board of Supervisors, has voted to increase the salaries for himself and his other part-time elected colleagues substantially. In 2024, McKay’s salary increased by 45%, to $145,000. At the same time, the other members of the board voted to increase their part-time annual salaries from $95,000 to $130,000. Fairfax County’s taxpayers are also paying for McKay’s car, gas, tolls, and oil changes.

If it seems like children have taken over the local budget, that’s because they have. Who else but a child would think it’s OK to drown residents in tax burdens and give yourself a 45% raise and a free car?

Many Fairfax voters are rightfully shocked about the county’s proposed meals tax, but we should have been appalled a long time ago.

I am looking for a barbershop/salon that does perms for men. I have flat, Asian hair and don’t know which places are good. Any recommendations?

It's well know that Fairfax County will not enforce beggars at street corners under the claim that doing so violates the beggars' civil rights, but did you know that Virginia State Code contradicts the County's claims?

After almost hitting a beggar crossing lanes to grab a dollar from a stopped car at the intersection of Braddock and 28 and getting a “meh” response from FCPD when I called it in, I did some research and found that Virginia allows counties to make begging illegal AND that doing so on a VDOT controlled road is subject to the equivalent of a traffic violation throughout the State per § 46.2-931.

Now, here's the part that Fairfax County knows but chooses to ignore - most every major roadway in Fairfax (basically everything but the residential streets) is controlled by VDOT. That means that my call to FCPD presented a legitimate violation of State law that was ignored. Granted, law enforcement has the discretion to do so, but there is no denying that the County's decision to willfully ignore law diminishes quality of life for the resident and poses a hazard on that State's roads.

I'll be citing the code on any future incidents that I call in for the record although I realize there won't be any change.

For reference, here's the code: https://law.lis.virginia.gov/vacode/title46.2/chapter8/section46.2-931/
