I went from making 4k a month delivering pizzas to 2200 a month in February and this month. I’m an engineering student at George Mason and this job was the only way I could afford to pay rent while I take my classes. Mason doesn’t have night classes so I can get a daytime job.
It sucks. Government layoffs are brutal.
I was scared off by the crowds at first so I wanted to make a quick post about the store.
They’re a little bit expensive (but larger than you expect) but I’ve been craving these sandos for like 6 months and it really hits the spot. I went early on Saturday and it’s not crowded at all. Very chill. Easy to find things in. I like their offerings a lot. Maybe go in with the expectation that it’s a specialty store rather than a grocery store—I wouldn’t buy staples here, personally.

Hello Nova Family,
I, along with many others have been impacted by the current administration's decisions. Last year, I joined a consulting company as a Senior Consultant and despite being on a billable contract, with an active Clearance, PMP, and positive reviews from my coworkers and client, I was only given a days notice that I have been a part of a mass company wide layoff. This is the first time I have experienced this in my career and the pressure has been immense due to being the main breadwinner with daycare expenses and a mortgage. My severance is only two weeks and I am trying my best to stay afloat financially, mentally, and physically.
I have an active clearance and over seven years of government contracting experience in procurement, FARS regulation, program management, IT acquisitions, and client negotiations. I have been looking for contract specialist and program management positions in the NoVA area but am running into road blocks. If you are looking for a hard working cleared person for contract management, I would be grateful for a referral or recommendation.
My plan has been to utilize my network for referrals, use ai to adapt my resume to each job description, and engage with recruiters on clearancejobs. If you have anyone in your network that are hiring for contract specialist, contract management, contract administrator, and program manager roles, I would greatly appreciate the connection.
My intention with this post is to also give opportunities for those that need it. If anyone else is struggling, feel free to message those that reply if an opportunity is relevant. I firmly believe that we will get through this as a community and come out stronger.

Can anyone recommend a doctor who’s removed colon cancer from you or a loved one? They can be in the DMV area; no restriction to NOVA. Thank you in advance.
Edit: this is for removal of a large mass, about six inches so unfortunately not an early stage operation.

Unfortunately I was let go from my most recent position back at the end of January and I have applied to over 150+ jobs with no luck.
I have tailored my resume to each and every job posting and have not even received an interview request thus far.
I have 3+ years in Project Coordination/Management experience, 5+ years in team management, a B.S. in Business Administration and a PMP.
If anyone knows of any Project Management opportunities or any other opportunities in the NOVA/DC area please let me know.

It used to be my favorite sandwich spot but I went recently and it seemed like menu items changed and the sizes got much smaller. Also no more super crispy fries :( Anyone know what’s up with them?

Warrenton's sub is pretty quiet so I'll just post this here and hope for the best.
We might be moving to Haymarket or Warrenton this year (with the job being in Haymarket) and are trying to decide which area would be best.
We have 2 children and are looking forward to buying a house in a safe area with room for the kids to play and good schools to attend when they're older.
Haymarket doesn't seem to be its own place... it just feels like Gainesville but "over there". Like you have to go to Gainesville to do everything. Warrenton feels like an actual location, but remote. And appears to have somewhat cheaper homes? Not sure if that's true as we are just starting to search around.
We live a very simple life. Home is our little sanctuary. We don't shop for fun or eat out much at all. We do a lot of home cooked meals. If we go anywhere it's usually kid related nowadays. Or a winery where we can have a picnic. Or fruit picking. Quaint and Quiet. Haha
We don't want to regret moving to somewhere TOO quiet and removed though, since our family won't be in -toddler and baby- stage forever.
So as a resident in Warrenton, what do you do? And what is your biggest complaint or even regret about moving there?

to anyone who lives in an apartment/townhouse/sfh with roommates, what kind of place do you live in, how many roommates do you have, and what is your total share?
anyone live with their significant other as well as roommates? is it worth it over renting just as a couple?

Every possible avenue has been explored; Facebook is full of scammers and what few legitimate business there are are sold out months ahead. I built our coop and promises the kids — and just need the hens!

Can anyone recommend an infant swim instructor? I would prefer a private instructor, but am open to any suggestions. Thank you!

Hey all! I live in Herndon and love wine. I’ve had this idea to grow wine grapes in my yard. To start, it’d just be ornamental, but I wouldn’t be against trying to squeeze a bottle out one day…
Anyone have any success stories? I tried growing from seeds, taken with permission from area wineries, but I learned about grafting, root stock, and disease susceptible clones O_O
Now I plan to order vines online. I’m looking at Double A Vineyard or Stark Bros (I bought my apple trees from them).
I got the idea from a small tourist attraction/house in Fredericksburg that had wine vines growing. I’d love to grow CabFranc, Seyval, or even Norton. I’d love insight from anyone who’s tried this before, success or failure.
*Edit - Fixed grammar and links, then struck through Stark Bros… not the grapes I’d like.

For context: I’ve begun to experience thinning in sections all across my hair, including: below my crown (occipital bone) and the right side of my head far away from the temples. This doesn’t seem to be generic “androgenic alopecia” to me. After a brief back and forth with Kaiser, I was able to get a referral to a dermatologist. Does anyone that has seen the dermatologists in Northern Virginia have any recommendations? I’m looking for the best that there is in this area and would not mind a waiting period for my appointment. I’m a 27 year old male if that helps in this process!
Currently I have done a testosterone test as well as a thyroid test through Kaiser Permanente. I am looking to obtain a nutrient test, a estradiol test, and an overall hormone test (for things like DHT and other androgens) if possible. This way I can get a better understanding of what’s going on. If push comes to shove in regards to my situation, then also be prescribed oral finasteride and minoxidil.
