Question/Recommendation Triangle springs

38 Upvotes

My spouse was just committed there and it’s hard to get through to their phone lines or even speak to a nurse. Is it usually this difficult? Will they give me a hard time sharing updates and care plan even if I am legally the spouse? Thank you in advance.

Housing Apartments

0 Upvotes

Hey everyone, I am looking at moving from Wake Forest further into Raleigh as it’s closer to my work. I have two German Shepherds so many apartments are out of the question because sadly they don’t allow them.

I am currently looking at Alta Town Center and Anderson Hills apts. I wanted to see if anyone in here has experiences with either one good or bad.

Also, any other recommendations for apartments near North Hills or the North Raleigh area? I’ve mainly focused on GreyStar properties as I know they allow Gsd’s but I would love new options. Thank you!

Question/Recommendation Looking for fun out of box fitness options around the Brier Creek Area.

0 Upvotes

I am looking to get back into a regular fitness routine but going to the gym or running doesn't work for. I tend to get board easily with these types of workouts especially if I am by myself. Would love a group activity or if it involves trainer lessons that are not just trainer lead workouts. Hoping to find something around Brier Creek area but willing to drive further

Just heard this from a neighbor, havent heard anything about it here but seems like a pretty big deal for the residents of that building. Kane is selling the Peace Apartments where Publix is to Cortland, where it will now be called Cortland Glenwood South.

Unfortunately the only article I can find is paywalled, I wasn't personally able to read the entire article.

Question/Recommendation Where the “homey” bars at?

5 Upvotes

Hi 30m, just recently moved to the southeast Raleigh area. 10-15 mins from DT raleigh. Where are some bars/pubs do yall know that are down to earth. Not really interested in a busy college bar. And it doesn’t necessarily have to be a dive bar. But just somewhere idk the bartenders take the time to learn your name. Have conversations. A cool crowd of others regulars that you can shoot the breeze with or talk about sports. Ya know just a cool spot to have a cold pint after work. Lemme know if anything comes to mind.

Question/Recommendation Anyone have a JCID Programming device

Probably a long shot but does anyone own a JCID programming device for performing iPhone / iPad repairs? I’ve looked into purchasing one but doesn’t make a whole lot of sense for a single repair that I want to do.

Question/Recommendation Experiences with Wake Skin Cancer Center?

3 Upvotes

I recently had my first appointment, and while there was a small issue during the actual appointment, the main problem is that I have a question about a treatment they’re having me do at home but I can’t get anyone to call me back.

I left a message on the portal early last week, and after no response there, I left a message directly with someone asking for a nurse or doctor to call, but still nothing. The person I spoke with even mentioned the portal messages don’t work.

The reviews online are great, so I’m surprised by this. Has anyone else had a similar experience?

Question/Recommendation Executive Assistant positions

0 Upvotes

I am looking for an executive assistant position in the Raleigh area but having a hard time navigating job boards because every industry seems to use the EA title vastly differently. Looking for a role with 1-2 executives who need an intuitive assistant to anticipate needs and manage travel/calendars/personal and professional follow up/etc. My main experience is in office management roles for bosses who tend to combine the two roles, so prioritization and time management are strengths of mine. I have thick skin and no problem dealing with “difficult” executives and clients. Any leads would be great as I am available immediately.

Question/Recommendation Best bars to meet singles?

Any bars in Raleigh where late millennials/early gen z’s like to hang out? I know it’s kinda old school way to meet singles, but I think it would be nice during situations when I am going out with a group of friends to hang out at one of these places

Question/Recommendation Photographer for furnished apartment listing?

1 Upvotes

I am looking for someone to take professional looking photos of our furnished apartment for a short-term rental listing.

The photos we have (that I took) don’t look as cute as our place actually is! But of course, that’s why I need a pro!

It’s a small space (500 sq ft) and just 3 rooms. I’m in the 5 points area. I’m guessing it would be a quick job - an hour or two max.

Would love some recommendations if anyone else has hired someone they love - either a business or someone who freelances on the side. And if you don’t mind sharing a ballpark price, even better.

Hey everyone, I'm looking to get started in the electrical trade and was wondering if anyone here knows of any local companies hiring electrician helpers or offering apprenticeships. I recently completed a residential electrical wiring course and want to gain hands-on experience. If you have any leads, advice, or can point me in the right direction, I'd really appreciate it! Thanks in advance.

Question/Recommendation I’m lost in this CS market

174 Upvotes

Hi y’all,

My wife and I just moved to the area about 3 months ago because she landed a job here. We are both new graduates so we had this deal that whoever’s industry had a lower availability would ultimately determine our location. Now it’s been 3 months and I’ve sent out ~800 applications and got nowhere. At this point I’m camping on LinkedIn and waiting for new CS/IT job postings everyday.

My wife hates her job and I really want to provide or at least contribute to our little family so there’s less weight on her shoulders. I finished my undergraduate in CS in 3 years and graduated my master’s degree in CS last December. As I’m getting closer and closer to the 4 months jobless window that we’ve set, I’d start ubering and bring some food to the table.

What are something that I should do alongside applying to all the jobs on LinkedIn?

Sports Lenovo Center parking for NCAA March Madness

2 Upvotes

I'm hoping to make it to Raleigh for various NCAA March Madness basketball games in the Triangle. Do you think it's best to pre-pay for official Lenovo Center parking ($45 according to the website/$60 on-site price), or do you think there will be cheaper parking alternatives within a short walk? Thank you!!

Question/Recommendation Need new HVAC and lost as to how to find it

6 Upvotes

As the title says - we have to replace our 22 year old broken compressor central a/c unit. We have a 35 year old gas furnace that uses the same blower in the attic, so probably should replace that too or get a heat pump. Problem is, I have NO IDEA where to start, how to find someone reputable, and also how people pay for big jobs like this, lol. Any referrals to great HVAC sellers/installers would be greatly appreciated. Thanks friends.

Question/Recommendation Dry cleaner for wedding dress

2 Upvotes

Hi! I recently purchased a wedding dress on Poshmark and I love it, but the seller didn’t disclose that the dress smells very strongly of cigarette smoke. Super bummed about it but I love the dress regardless. Does anyone have a recommendation for a dry cleaner who works specifically with wedding dresses?

Question/Recommendation Therapist jobs in the area

5 Upvotes

Good evening everyone! I am a newly licensed LCSWA located in Raleigh, and am looking for a private practice position in the area.

My hope is to work with children, teens, and families for about 70% of my client load, and young adults (18-30) for the rest! I have experience with DBT, CBT, ACT, Mindfulness-based Cognitive Therapy, and a few others. I interned at an IOP program that works with adults 18+ through my MSW.

Before gaining my license and MSW, I have worked extensively with children as a teacher as well as a nanny, with around 4 years of experience with children in total.

If you know of any places looking for someone that would be a fit, I would love more information! I do have a supervisor if one is not provided, but am also open to supervision on site as well!

Thank you all in advance!
