What are some union friendly business I can support?

Right now I’m staying away from I’m using products distributed by BigFoot, which I would be happy to rescind if management stops their shit. But what are some good union friendly places that deserve my business right now?

Any recommendations for local Tax Pro experienced with filing for degen gamblers?

Every year I go to H&R and try someone different. They always claim to know what they're doing but obviously have no experience handling large gambling filings and never seem confident with what they're doing, which makes me nervous. Talking a few hundred w2g's. Eugene isn't Vegas so just looking for someone who has actual experience and not just the knowledge.

Knee Surgeon Recs

Hi everyone, so I went to Slocum and got confirmed by Dr. Hoellrich that I need a MPFL Reconstruction and a TTO surgery. First off, I was wondering if anyone recommends Dr. Hoellrich for these kinds of procedures. Secondly, I am wanting a second opinion on the TTO portion to ensure I don’t need a trochleoplasty. However, I can’t find any doctors in Oregon that really specialize in them. Has anyone here gotten one and if so where?

Bigfoot Update?

I overheard someone at my work saying Teamsters is paying employees $1k every 3 days to be on the picket lines. Now, I don’t think this is true. This came from the mouth of someone who owns a business and I’m sure would side with the Bigfoot bigwigs than union. Has anyone heard anything about this? Where did she get that from? I also haven’t heard any update about the strike. Did Bigfoot just successfully bust a union? I don’t mean to sound uneducated, just wanting to get more info.

Did you see a car accident this weekend?

Hi fellow Oregon folks, I hope this is okay to ask! If anyone in this sub happened to witness a vehicle collision last Saturday 2/1 at around 6 PM near/in the Whiteaker, could you please DM me what you saw? I am unfortunately in need of witness statements, only for insurance - not the police. Will trade info for cute cat pictures.

Community Cleanup

A few days ago there was a nice post from someone who had cleaned up some dangerous waste on the sidewalk. I want to help, though it would feel more effective as an organized effort.

Is there any organization, formal or informal, to volunteer with to help clean up? Would you be interested in participating in one?

Favorite place for pasties/meat pies?

Sometimes there's nothing so delicious as meats wrapped in pastry. I want a decent sized meat and veggie, warm you to your bones hand pie and I don't want to make it myself. Does Eugene still have a place to get pasties? Will also accept recommendations for empanadas, samosas, pot pies, and anything else that seems relevant.

Where's the snow??

Transplants to Eugene were spreading fear doom about snow and ice last week and debating that people who have lived here for decades were wrong. When it's above 40 degrees in the forecast any snow is going to melt. AND it never snows 2 years in a row because we are in a VALLEY. I'm just trying to ease minds who are unfamiliar with the area that may buy into misinformation about our weather patterns. Last year's storm is highly unusual and rare for the area. It's good to be prepared but people shouldn't overthink this. There's way more important things to worry about ✌️ I love my fellow Eugenians and Springers

Spine Doctors: Keiper, NeuroSpine, PacificSports

I‘ve had chronic pain since the age of 12 when I had a complicated surgery done to remove a bone tumor on my C-1, they then rebuilt my neck with 2 rods, a metal cage, fusion, and took bone from my hip and rib to graft around the metal. Recent MRIs and changes in pain show Tarlov cysts in the cervical region, foraminal narrowing, stenosis, etc. Lots of things with numbness and nerve issues and additional mobility issues.

For something so complex, who would you go to? What are your experiences?

Thank you.

Anyone else's household chronically aick this winter??

Are we the only ones debilitated by this URI's? It keeps cycling in our home. I know having kids brings in much illness from time to time but this seems excessive. It's not pertussis or c19 and chest x-rays are clear but it takes 6 weeks + to clear out. My 15yo brought it home from H.S. in the first half of DECEMBER and we're still sick. :(
