Question Probably moving to Spokane

5 Upvotes

Hello! I'm likely moving to Spokane from Tulsa in the next few months. I grew up in Cle Elum, but I've been away from Washington for almost 20 years now. However, I've never been to Spokane.

So... I don't know what I don't know. What do you think I should know? What would you warn me about? Recommend?

I'm looking at the Bellwood Park Apartments. The manager has been amazing so far. Does anyone know anything about them?

Thank you for your time, and I look forward to hearing back!

Rants & Raves Your hiring? I call bullshit

80 Upvotes

I have applied to over 40 different places. Got 1 interview. And every single time it's a rejection letter. I have experience in the places I'm applying. I know what I'm doing. Yet every fucking time is a rejection email. EVEN MCDONALD'S SENT ME A REJECTION EMAIL. WHAT THE FUCK. I just want a job man I just want income. So if anyone needs someone with freight and cashier experience please let me know I'm so desperate Edit: i will add i am disabled so there are some jobs i just physically cant do. thanks to the people so far who have dm'ed me with leads.

She also said Rumeysa Ozturk was taken because she was planning a terrorist attack, and it didn't bother her at all that she was taken by unidentified people.

Good for the patience of the civics teacher.

Spokane stood up today against a tiny fraction of people whose outsized ignorance is destroying our country.

Help Seeking Serenity (and Maybe a Decent Landlord) in Spokane...

Upvotes

Round Two: A little under two months ago, I reached out to this community seeking guidance on a potential relocation to Spokane. The insights and advice I received were invaluable and, as it turns out, remarkably accurate. So, here I am again, hat in hand, hoping for a second dose of your collective wisdom. I'm a 44-year-old single woman, originally from Seattle, who has spent the last seven years living north of Spokane. While the peace and quiet had its initial appeal, the need for a bit more "city" in my life has become undeniable. I've spent time familiarizing myself with different areas and have viewed properties in the South Hill, Logan, and Browne's Addition. Out of roughly eight places I've seen, only two felt like genuine possibilities. One on N. Hogan St. is currently pending application approval, and the other is on W. Nora Ave. I've made a firm decision to avoid large apartment buildings, prioritizing my sanity above all else. The thought of shared walls and the potential for constant noise is simply not conducive to my well-being. While I've reached out regarding some duplex and fourplex units, I'm also exploring apartments, though each potential winner seems to come with a litany of concerning tenant reviews. The Serrano, in particular, stands out for all the wrong reasons. While I understand that crime exists everywhere and I'm capable of looking after myself, I'm not prepared to wage war against bed bugs, cockroaches, or rodents. That's a battle I'd rather not sign up for. This week, I have viewings scheduled at SoDo Commons (reluctantly, given it's a larger building) and Quadrangle Apartments. If anyone has firsthand experience or knows someone who does, I would be grateful for any insights you can share. Beyond these specific locations, I'm reaching out to the apartment renters of Spokane directly. If you reside in a building or complex that you find clean, well-managed by professionals, and generally meets the basic expectations of a decent living environment, please consider directing me to your area. This search is proving to be more exhausting than anticipated, and reliable recommendations would be immensely helpful. Thank you all for your time and any assistance you can offer. Wishing you all the best...

Question Wifi at Riverfront Park?

1 Upvotes

I've been told that there's supposed to be a network called "wifi in the park", but I've been around pretty much every area in the park and haven't seen such a network, or any password-free network associated with Riverfront Park, just networks that reach into the park from around it. I went to the information both near the promenade and they said it exists, but... Yeah. Anyone got info on this?

Nearly filled the park, and lined both sides of Division for more than a block. There's a very small group of counterprotestors and a few obnoxious drivers. One guy drove down the wrong side of Division and almost caused an accident right when we got here. Luckily he got pulled over.

Politics Thank you Spokane, from a social worker

132 Upvotes

As a social worker that is trying help and serve people that are actively being negatively impacted by the administration today, I want to say thank you. It meant the world to me to see how many people are on our side in our city. I didn’t know there were that many of you. It brought tears to my eyes. So from the bottom of my heart, I say, thank you. For showing up for those that are most vulnerable, for showing up for the health care workers that are scrambling trying to help while resources are actively being taken away and for showing up for future generations. Especially the peace keepers, thank you.❤️

Good morning Spokane. Looking for recommendations for a licensed electrician who wants a small job. I need to install an electric vehicle charger in my garage.

Anyone have a good recommendation?

Yes, I could Google but I'm pretty sure at least half of the reviews online are bought and paid for.

Thanks!

It’s a small, black, vacant house that has been vandalized over and over and over. We’ll drive by and see a repair, like new windows, and within days, all the windows are broken.
