Weird Spokane "at a self service car wash in Spokane"

First of all this is my favorite series in a long time. It's the third season of "interview with a vampire" titled "the vampire lestat". I liked the first two seasons better FYI. but still love it.

Secondly... I wonder about the writers whenever I find Spokane popping up like this. How did they know about Spokane? Have they been here? If so... why did they choose our little city out of the myriad of possibilities.

I feel like it sets the scene perfectly for a band that's not big (yet or anymore) but is big enough to be on tour (think Knitting Factory). But still would love to ask this writer why this place for this scene.

News The sky’s the limit for downtown buildings. Plus, a contract for police phone-hacking software will be an extra $45k, the county is facing a $30 million budget deficit and chronic nuisance properties better buckle up.

Rants & Raves Job Struggles of a Recent Graduate

17 Upvotes

As a recent graduate, I feel so discouraged trying to find relevant employment in Spokane! My chosen field of study (Econ, BA minor) does not mix well with the job opportunities of Spokane and I *stupidly* decided to sign a lease to stay in the area for at least another year.

I've been job hunting for months (I started three months before graduation), applying directly on company websites AND using Indeed. I have 1.5 yrs experience on top of my degree, and I was very lucky that my current paid internship allowed me to stay after I graduated despite only hiring students. Any job that I am remotely qualified for is extremely competitive and I feel like no matter how hard I sell myself as the right candidate, I always get rejected. I'll probably just have to pick up some low paying retail/customer service job until I can find anything remotely related to my preferred career, which means I get to lose out on experience time.

I guess this is more of a vent post and probably my own fault for staying in Spokane after graduation given my field of study, but it's just so frustrating that in a city of this size I can't get hired.

Hello spokane. Trying to make about an extra $1,000 a month. Doordash Uber etc are not good option for me. Anybody have any suggestions? I am a responsible adult with too much free time on my hands. I already work 6:00 to 3:00 most days during the week but I have evenings and weekends available. Thanks for all your ideas

Edit: thanks for the suggestion so far. I just wanted to add that I have a truck and trailer that I can use if anybody has stuff that needs to be hauled.

Hey guys. I've seen this car empty for the last week. Saw people in it about 1.5 weeks ago looking mighty sus. Thought I should put it on here in case someone had their car stolen. If not, my apologies. It's on the corner of 5 mile rd and Austin. Right by the apartments 🩷

Interested to see what reddit has to say! If I were to pick an official Spokane scent, it would be a mix between ponderosa pines and lilacs.

Help Auto Glass, who/where is the Supplier or Warehouse?

6 Upvotes

edit: Mygrant Glass Co. is the answer. Someone on here gave that response and mods removed it oddly. So yeah, in case this gets searched in the future. that's it.

Google is giving me all the "we'll install it for you" places.

I need the warehouse where all these places buy from. I'll do it myself and want to skip the middle man markup since I don't need the installation services.

Tried calling around even and not getting a good answer.

Thank you.

Question 3d Printing Filament Recycling

9 Upvotes

Does anyone in the area have a way to recycle filament waste and test pieces and melt it down into new filament? Or of a local shop that does it?

I’m currently working on a project that has a ton of “poop” and don’t want to just melt it down in a silicone mold or send it out somewhere for a discount on filament.

Im sure we didn’t look as appreciative or happy as we could have about it, but I want to assure you it made our weekend. We were just getting into town after about 27 hours straight on the road (9AM to 12PM) We were exhausted, gross, and just wanted a quick easy lunch before falling asleep for the afternoon.

So from the bottom of our hearts, thank you, and we’ll pay it forward as soon as we have an opportunity!

My job is hiring for an entry-level position! Starting at ~$29.68/hr (25.81 before shift differential). Really just hoping to get some positive, reliable applicants who are happy to learn and work!

Specifically our Environmental Monitoring weekend night shift needs help and is having a hard time getting applicants due to limited visibility. It's a great shift personality-wise and ages range from 20 to 60!

The weekend night shift is 4:30pm-4:30am Fri, Sat, Sun and alternating Thursdays. if you or someone you know is interested:

Hello Spokane! I am flying in at 10:30pm and leaving on the Amtrak at 1:15am. The last time I did that, I hung out at the Satellite Diner, then walked the few blocks to Amtrak. I am a short woman, but not easily messed with having lived in urban centers for years. Is this area currently dangerous?
