Trying to meet more people that are into this type of music and where you go to see shows and what not. And listen to.

Mid-Tap Closed?

Has anyone heard what’s going on with Mid-Tap in Arlington Marketplace? Tried going there a couple of times but has been closed. Even on a Saturday night! Just curious if anyone knew what was going on.

Anyone else having problems with USPS lately?

Ordered a few items off of Etsy and apparently got the wrong tracking item numbers. Talked with a USPS support agent who was very annoyed at her local team about mislabeled packages.

Or it could just be DeJoy fuckery I guess.

Home charter rule ballot measure

Thoughts on the home charter rule ballot measure? I'm undecided as of now. It seems to intentionally be written in a confusing way, so I think I could be missing something. It has a bunch of changes packed into it, some seemingly good, some seemingly not so good.

I'm moving to BR in a couple of months

Is there any areas I should avoid to rent a place?

And what are the best neighborhoods to live?

Gun ranges

Not sure if anyone would know and I’ve already called range USA and FRC but I’m looking to try out some handguns at the range before buying. Anyone know if there’s any ranges around town that have Canik MC9L (it’s fairly new) or Canik Elite SC available to rent? The other places I’ve called only have the full size caniks (TP9 and rival lines)

Thanks for any advice.

Little Wars Faire! Sat 10AM

Little Wars, one of our friendly local game shops in Baton Rouge, is having its 2nd annual fall fair, Saturday morning 10 AM. They're on Jefferson near Corporate

The one last year was dope. Performances, dancers, vendors, food, panels, etc.

Should be fun.

Tips on getting into fine dining serving or bartending?

I’m a young bartender gaining experience near lsu, also serving in a restaurant. I think I am very capable of the formality given at upscale restaurants, like Ruth’s Chris, Ruffino’s, etc.

I am asking for advice on how to get into these types of places? If anyone works at such places, which places are hiring, differences between an every day restaurant vs. An upscale one?

I am mainly wanting to switch over for more consistent money. At my current job, we make most money on game days, but on regular days, I end up making the same wage I was making at the grocery store job I left for the restaurant.

I am also very professional and prideful in my work no matter what environment I am in, so I am just trying to continuously upgrade my environment, which is currently customer service. Thanks for the help!

Places to visit within an hour of BR?

My parents are in town (mid-70s) and will have my baby. Any cute, stroller friendly towns in the area that are good to walk around in/have lunch?

Process technology program

I am considering getting a ptec degree/certificate from brcc. To give everyone a background. I have an Associate Degree (General Studies) from brcc and a Bachelors of Science in Criminal Justice from Southern University. I was considering law enforcement but i no longer want to pursue that. I want to know if it’s possible to just get the ptec certificate which is 12 credit hours from brcc and get a job as an operator or if I need to get the full associates degree. I really don’t feel like going back to school for 2 years to complete the full degree. Any advice? I am considering working in the plant but I have no idea how to get in or what steps I need to take to get in.

Overalls?

For the Koreaphiles among us

The Han River ramyeon — enjoyed by many K-pop idols and stars, including aespa's Karina, as well as locals and tourists from around the world — will be exported to the United States.
 
Han River ramyeon refers to instant noodles sold at the Han River parks along the Seoul waterway that use a one-stop instant noodle cooker.
 
Bumil Industrial, the maker of the Hauscook instant noodle cooker, signed a $5 million export deal with the U.S.-based distribution company BeautyMaster on Tuesday to export its machines.

Pork Belly? Where can I buy full "slabs"?

Trying to make some chashu for ramen, but can't seem to find it. Whole foods had, but it was sliced. No luck at Walmart, Oak Point, Winn Dixie either...

Any crafters/crocheters in/near baton rouge?

Anyone know of any groups or individuals that would be open to hangout and craft or crochet? I’m in my younger twenties but am open to friends of any and all ages! I crochet and make jewelry. Would love to have a friend to spend time crafting with, you can have separate hobbies of course!

🎊 CONGRATULATIONS BATON ROUGE!!! 🎉

You are officially and literally the absolute worst traffic flow-fkup per capita in North America.

SOURCE: a guy that big rigs across every ultra-mega metro zone east and west of the Mississippi on a regular basis and has the displeasure of his terminal being 15 minutes from the 10/12 shit-split.

Pelicans on TV?

Anyone able to pick up the Over The Air channel for watching Pelicans games? Apparently it's channel 9.3 WAFB but me nor anybody I know have been able to pick it up. We've all tried scanning for new channels multiple times and we have varying levels of antennas.

Just another evening in downtown.

On Maximillian Street last night. About 6h later the black Kia across the street was broken into in an unsuccessful attempt to hit wire it.

El Rancho

Does anyone know if the El Rancho on Florida is closing or if it’s just undergoing remodel? We drove by last night and it looked to be closing, but I can’t find anything about it. I know it was in need of a remodel, though.
