Hyde Park neighbors, what's your go-to grocery store?

Just moved to South Hyde Park, after living in Waldo for several years. I hadn't realized how spoiled I was for being just 4 or 5 blocks away from Aldi. I could step out to grab a gallon of milk or loaf of bread and be back in the kitchen in 10min or less.

Today I made the rookie mistake of trying to do a quick run at Costco for just bread and milk. Of course it took me over half an hour, and I bought more stuff than planned.

The Aldi on Troost is a little ways out. I wish it was easier to drive straight west for Sunfresh. What's the Aldi at Prospect like? The Whole Foods at 51st is another option.

KU med center: has anyone lost an offer due to driving record?

I have been offered a position and I have jumped through so many hoops for this place trying to get through this brutal onboarding process! They first couldn’t verify my education but didn’t specify what education so I had my trade school transcript sent when it was my high school they were wanting. Found that out last week when all school offices were closed for the holiday. Then they brought up my DMV record and asked for details. I provided them and had to wait for a response from another department on whether or not they would need more info. They did but the person I was talking to thought DMV report would be enough. Did not find out until after holiday weekend that they need more info. I did get all the other stuff verified to this point.

I want this job so very much, so I’m trying to take this in stride. But I’m so anxious. I had an accident in April of this year after I failed to stop at a light. I know this is a really bad one, but it gets worse: in August of this year, I backed into a car that was parked behind my driveway.

I had to order a police report for the first accident. There is not a police report for the other one since no one was cited and it was private property, but since an officer came it is on my DMV record. I did provide the record to them but I don’t have anything else to give. It sounded like there’s a very real possibility that I am not going to get this job due to this record. I sent everything over this afternoon but did not learn anything by end of day. I was supposed to start this Thursday, but it seems like at the very least, that will be pushed back. I’m just feeling really down about it. I had a clean record for 5+ years, and then this year has been a bad one. This also seems odd since the position does not require travel or driving at all. Unless they are decided whether or not I am attentive enough to be a good employee based on this?

Has anyone else experienced this process? Or can anyone offer any insight.

Please be nice to me I’m just trying to quiet my mind as I wait 😭

Looking for a shop that does intake valve blasting

Any recommendations on a professional shop that offers walnut blasting around KC? I searched the sub but the last post was awhile ago, just curious if there’s any more highly recommended options lately. Thanks!

Any local banks that require YubiKey/Security Keys to login online?

Since SMS Text verification is easily hackable, I was looking to increase security of my money by selecting a bank that would require YubiKey or any other physical key to login online (without allowing for SMS Text verification backup). Do any banks in Kansas City offer that?

Free dog food downtown

Just set out this box of six cans and a few bags of dog food by the dumpster behind Normandy apartments at 11th and Washington. It’s all “expired” 10-2024. If anyone needs help feeding their pups.

97.5 fm show changes

Just noticed today that long time radio guy Kevin Keitzman is back on the air 10–noon weekdays. What happened to Ray Stevens? Keitzman burned a lot of bridges years ago which is why he was forced off the air.

2nd job ideas in the northland?

Hey all, I’m looking for ideas for 2nd jobs. Ideally part time in the evening 5-10pm ish.

I have a full time day job and my wife is on maternity leave only getting 60% of her pay. So I figured I’d do something for extra cash. And when she’s back to work, I’ll probably stick with it to help pay bills and fast pay some debt.

I figured I’d deliver pizzas as I did that in my late teens and it’s easy. But my car has a lot of miles on it already and I commute over a hour each day. Figured it’d be a good idea to see if anyone has some unicorn job that I can drop into.

I’m open to most things. I’m handy, have experience with CS, and can do physical work.

Thank you

MCI Short Term Parking

I'm not picking someone up. I'm not dropping someone off. I need to go into the entrance of the airport to speak to the clear representatives as part of my TSA PreCheck application. Is there somewhere I can park that's not going to cost? Or am I stuck paying for parking or having a spouse drop me off and go driving until I'm ready.

Recommend me a good oil change place…

Preferably not a Jiffy Lube or some place way out in the burbs. Bonus points for anywhere between the north east or the crossroads.

I don't know if there's an award for "Best Kansas City Pro Athlete of 2024," but if there is, Temwa Chawinga needs to be at the top of that list.

Above Mahomes, above Bobby Baseball, above anyone else. Who else and what else needs to be on a "KC Best of 2024" list?

If you've never meditated before, that's perfectly fine. Tips and guidance will be offered prior to our silent meditation. This time and space is dedicated to being a protective refuge from all that may be on your mind. We'll have reflective post-meditation discussion regarding our experiences during our meditation. Tea and snacks will be freely offered. Feel free to bring a yoga mat/ meditation pillow (limited amount offered). Use the metal ramp entrance on South side of building. See you there!
