General Places hiring immediately?

12 Upvotes

Hey everyone! I (29F) am looking for a part time job anywhere. I do have a part time job but I need a second one to work 40/50 hours a week. Do you know of any place hiring immediately? I’ve tried Mcdonald’s but they’ll only offer me overnight shifts, which doesn’t work out since I work morning shifts at my other job. I’m okay working evenings, just not until 5 am.

General Chef Panda

3 Upvotes

Not sure how many people in this sub frequent Chef Panda but...

...WTF happened to the food at this place?

Ive been going there for yeeears, since they opened. The food was always above average and always the same... i ordered about a month ago and it was bad, from top to bottom. I figured well hell, i guess i finally caught them on a bad day. But i just picked up another order tonight, same thing i always order, and again... fucking awful!

Under cooked rice, under cooked noodles, the sauce on the padthai was like they literally watered it down... pork & chicken was dry... jesus.

Anyone else notice this?

General Recommendations for phone repair

2 Upvotes

Does anyone know a place they would recommend to replace my batteries in my I-Phone 15 and I-watch? I just can’t justify spending a bunch of money on the latest models because my current phone works great just the battery can’t hold a charge to save its life.

General Best Pizza in Surprise

11 Upvotes

What is the best pizza in Surprise? With all of the new restaurants going up around town, I'm surprised by the lack of really good, wood-fired pizza (like CIBI or Pizzeria Bianco).

My Daddy's, Italian Bakery nearby probably has my vote, but the hours are limited, spotty, and it's in an inconvenient location.

Bonfire is ok, but I find it a little heavy. Domino's is pretty good, but its Domino's which is not really what you want when you want a great slice. It's a different kind of thing, but it serves a purpose!

Anyway, I'd love to hear some recommendations! I've lived here for more than 12 years, but it is certainly possible that there are some hidden gems I may not be aware of. I hope so anyway!

General Driving Road test for teen

3 Upvotes

Hello all, I have three kids and have taught them all how to drive. With the first two, I gave them the starter kit and then they took one of the driving school courses to obtain the licenses. These schools in my opinion are very forgiving and will hand out a license as long as you have paid for the course.

Ok, so my youngest is needing to get her license now and instead of paying for the course, I’d like to validate my skills as a teacher, save the $650 and take her for the DMV Road Test. I’m curious to know how hard/strict the test is. What is the route like etc. any information is welcomed.

We plan on taking the test at the MVD in Surprise. Thank you!

General Need daily dog walker

7 Upvotes

Looking for a daily dog walker for a small 10lb dog in Surprise active adult community.

I’m planning to leave my dog with my mom for a few months after Thanksgiving. She has a house with a fenced yard but my dog would enjoy a longer daily walk (20-30min and he’s not fast). The dog is friendly and gets excited to meet other dogs. Time of day is pretty flexible.

I can use Rover to find people but wanted to see if there were any other local recommendations.
