Can anybody who works at Conagra confirm if they test for weed during a preemployment drug screening? I saw a job I am interested in but don’t want to waste anyone’s time if they test for marijuana. Thanks in advance for any insight!

Local Question Got approached again by people asking for charity donations via buying candy on 72nd street parking

8 Upvotes

I went to Micheal’s recently to grab a few things and there was a group of 3 guys coming up to everyone with bins of candy asking for people to buy them to raise money for charity. I declined partially because I didn’t have cash and am not comfortable sending virtual payments to random people on a whim but also because I’d gone to another store down the block from Micheals a few months ago and was approached by someone else selling candy to raise money in a similar way and something felt iffy about it.

Am I overthinking feeling apprehensive or have other people been approached by people like this and that feeling was correct?

Local Question Does USPS ever mark y’all’s packages as delivered but it's not actually there?

0 Upvotes

Paid well over a grand for a custom ECU and wiring harness for my project car. I just got home from work and checked the tracking a few minutes ago for the very first time. My package was marked as “Delivered, Front Door/Porch” @ noon. I live in an apartment building with controlled access. Went to all the neighboring buildings in my complex to check if it was mis-delivered but I can’t see anything through the other buildings doors that would be big enough to match what I bought. Saw online that a bunch of folks from all over have had this happen. Figured I’d ask y’all to see if anything like that has happened to you guys. Gonna go to my apt office first thing in the morning then hit the post office afterwards if nothing comes of that

Local Question Looking for reviews of auto dealers.

3 Upvotes

Basically the title. Looking to trade off my vehicle and get something a little newer and better on gas. I have ideas as to makes/models, though its still a pretty wide variety that I am looking at. I've bought from Carmax and H&H Chevy before, neither really impressed me due to issues with their vehicles and poor service when issues popped up.

So they ask is about others in the area.

Any positive experiences?

Any to avoid?

Thank you in advance.

ISO/Suggestion Schrier experience?

0 Upvotes

Has anyone purchased from Schrier? Interested to hear the experience. They offer this ‘lifetime warranty’ that can be used nationwide / anywhere.. seems scammy and like there has to be so many loopholes to why they wouldn’t honor a claim if one happened. Seems too good to be true and I learned long ago that things like that usually aren’t as good as they seem.

Overall I’m looking for what others have experienced before I consider going and checking out their lot to buy.

Anyone have any experience they care to share? Good or bad or neutral?

I’m behind on my rent and I’m really needing help. I had a job offer lined up but they rescinded the offer so right now I’m scrambling to find a job. I’ve been applying to multiple jobs everyday, and I’ve had interviews but nobody is getting back to me. Even if it’s something simple as lawn mowing or house keeping I’ll do it. If anyone has any resources for rental assistance or jobs hiring PLEASE let me know.

With the chilly weekend ahead we went to turn on the boiler in an old Victorian we are working on and one of the old cast iron radiators sprung a leak. They are original to the house and I would rather find someone to repair it rather than replace it. Does anyone know who in town I can call? It has been a long evening and I appreciate this sub and everyone so much!

I volunteer in the building and it’s owned by a church and have noticed its sloping quite a bit on one corner. And the wall is away from the floor and cracks throughout the building, I afraid the building could be over a sink hole that is forming. Shelving outside of building is sinking into the ground .Should I be concerned??

I’ve been getting quotes to have my panel upgraded and to also have power to my garage for an EV charger. The problem is that I’m getting very inconsistent information on what’s needed to do the upgrade and bring my house up to code.

Does anyone have a recommendation for an electrician that could speak to all what is needed plus making it up to code?

Already tried contacting C&S but they appear to be fully booked.

Local Question Looking for local Plumber recommendations who can camera/scope my main drain...

2 Upvotes

I've gone through the post history and didn't see anything that addressed this specific topic. I have a historical home, oldest in my neighborhood built in 1881. I'm looking for personal recommendations for a plumber who would be able to camera/scope my main drain to the street to anticipate any problems.

Currently, nothing is wrong, but it would be nice to know how many feet of cast iron, ceramic, or pvc I have, and what I could anticipate.

Ideally looking for a small business with integrity. I don't want some large company who is going to try and scare me into thousands of dollars of repairs I don't need.

Jodi Osborne, the owner of an exotic animal breeding business called Critter Close-Ups went on Live with Rolling Gavel to promote the selling of a kangaroo and kinkajou. Jodi has been in the news and social media a lot lately with animal abuse allegations. There are videos online of her grabbing an exotic caracal cat by the neck for chewing on her shoes, taking a baby animal from the mom and it screaming while she says she is selling it and having a dog at her grooming business whose eye fell out. The videos can be found on Reddit and YouTube.

From previous comments online she is friends with a woman online called Tracie Perry aka Tracie Jones (see photo comment below of Facebook post of Tracie talking about Jodi). Tracie has a long arrest record for fraud of selling monkeys. She is also on TikTok famous for a video where a man tries to get back his monkeys from her and she threatens to shoot him. This goes down a long rabbit hole if you're bored today.

Link to one of the Facebook Pages that talks about all the people Tracie has scammed and the federal laws she has broken.
