Hello, sonic 528 worker 3 years, need some help

This place needs to be reported bad, enough that paying the inspector isn't an option, the supervisor does not care about any safety of her workers, comes in drunk on occasions and refuses to pay workers for sick leave and other expenses owed. I'm owed about $1500, enough to get me a little start in life right now. I know for a fact she pays the inspectors as I have seen mold all around the building, including black mold in some places. The workers here are miserable and don't get what they deserve, the managers dont even get a living wage rather $2 below. Please help out any way possible.

My neighborhood is on lockdown

I was driving home from work about 1130pm and pulled onto my street where I live and counted 11 Rio rancho police cars about 4 houses away. A car in front of us stopped and talk to the cops so we waited behind for about 12 minutes. They finally drove away so we were able to get home... I just went outside after a large bang and about 30 to 40 patrol vehicles plus undercover and a drone above.

Edit: heard what I assume a flash bang? Loud explosion 3rd one of the night. I'm pretty sure I also heard the houses behind the subject house to evacuate.

What's going on at southern?

I just went on southern by Joe's Pasta House and there were people lining the street on the northern side with some police presence. Anything special going on? Just curious.

Angela and her shopping cart encampment

Angela was over by Papa John’s Pizza today. I walked over to have a talk with her and toss her some funds. She told me that people have been taking pictures of her, taking out ads with her picture, and also reporting her to the news/police. She says that she has been experiencing a lot of harassment recently.

Do not tread on the vulnerable. Try not to suck at life.

Save your trees! Knock the snow off the branches

Wet heavy snow on those branches that haven’t dropped leaves can cause broken branches and split trunks.

Registering security system?

I've lived in my house 11 years with a monitored security system the whole time. A few days ago I got a bill for $25 to register the alarm with like 3 free false alarms. I've never had a false alarm and I have never gotten a bill for this until now. What gives?

Who owns the golf course?

I know that the building caught on fire - heard some talk that it was for insurance money or something.

So is it just abandoned? Does the city own it? Still private? Anybody know?

Fragile egos driving with their hazards

If you're driving 5 to 10 miles an hour under the speed limit in your high horsepower Camaro and someone is just trying to get around you you don't have to drive like a dumbass. You must have a serious compensation problem if you have to flaunt your fragile ego that aggressively. You spent so much time with your hazards on I'm thinking your POS Camaro is actually broken and you're not trying to make a point. Why is it so hard to just keep moving and go the effing speed limit in the first place? Then every car that tries to pass you is automatically trying to race? No you're just dumb! Some ladies actually enjoy smaller equipment you don't have to take it out on the rest of the world just because you need a magnifying glass.

Market Street progress aerial photos

A few months ago, I took pics from my drone of the Market Street grocery store under construction at The Village, near the intersection of Wellspring and Unser, across from the big Presbyterian Hospital. Here are some shots from yesterday. They're moving right along! These shots show the building itself, the south parking lot, and the front lot including the gas station still under construction.

Must try/best food in Rio/North ABQ

Ive loved here most of my life but tend to go with the familiar, so hit me with your favorite food spots! If you would like to share your favorite dish(es) as well that is most welcome 🙂

I'm not opposed to quick services places as well and it doesn't not necessarily have to be local. More often than not I'll probably get delivery because my car overheats 😅

Looking to off-load cards to local groups.

As an avid (and totally not addicted) card opening fan of Pokémon. I often find myself with tons and tons of extra cards. I've been donating to a school that a family member works at but still have additional cards and do not want to overwhelm them.

Does anyone know of any youth groups, special needs groups, Pokémon leagues, or others that would take donations of cards? I am not looking to sell them as they are just basic cards, and I would love for them to go towards youth who play or enjoy minor collecting etc. Just need a larger outlet to donate to.

Either Rio Rancho, ABQ, Los Ranchos, Corrales, and Bernalillo are the areas I would be easiest for me to get to for donating.

EDIT: Duke City Games agreed to take this batch! I'll definitely be reaching out to the speech academy again once my next pile of cards forms. Thank you IMMENSELY to everyone!

Sparklight issues

Since the end of September my sparklight internet connection has been going out sporadically, usually it is a few times throughout the day. I can say I’ve lost connection about 20x since the start of Oct. I’m in the enchanted hills neighborhood.

Is anybody else experiencing this?

Trying to rule out possibilities before buying new equipment. Thanks.
