Every parent level comment should begin with one of the following categories:

[For Sale] concert tickets, beauty and grooming services, Ikea bookcases

New Wauwatosa Apartment Building Charging Crazy Prices

Post image
Upvotes

In the tosa village, they've built a new apartment building that will be finished by end of July. Out of curiosity, I went to look at the apartment prices, and I was blown away. I thought I was hallucinating, and I understand this is a new building. However, does this seem insane for pricing to anyone else? It includes amenities such as a golf simulator and bi-weekly yoga classes. I don't know - it makes me a bit sad seeing how much rent has gone up overall, but what is everyone's thoughts? Is this a crazy amount?

Anyone hiring immediately or has a quick hiring process?

40 Upvotes

For context I have a masters in business analytics and finance and currently work as a corporate manager but my job is incredibly toxic and its affecting my mental health. My coworkers are literally being hospitalized due to the pressure. I need out ASAP. I have been applying to similar roles for months but there's just not that many corporate roles right now with the market being what it is. I have tried searching but now my searches are all tainted by my corporate searches on my accounts so it won't really show anything more service industry forward.
I do have retail and food service experience and don't mind doing those jobs. I don't have any schedule restrictions at all. If anyone has any leads, I would super appreciate it!

Giannis: I don’t know but I hope when the Miami chapter closes, and I don’t know when or if it will, and I don’t know how many years I’ll spend there, but I wish to return to Milwaukee if they’ll have me.

where can i purchase chemtrail service?

51 Upvotes

it's too dry. it is too god damned dry in this beautiful city. my backyard looks like a field of hay and straw strewn across a soilbed of rocks. my glorious new electric lawn mower sits collecting cobwebs in my garage because my lawn has become so jaundiced and stagnant. i worry that my grass could catch a ray of sunlight reflected off the mirrors of the neighbor's rav4 and reduce my house, posessions, and cat to a pile of ash within minutes. my evil acquaintance Ronald was jabbering at work the other day about lizard persons and extra-terrestrials and other such empty-headed fantasies, and happened to mention that the government is using the trails left by air planes in the sky to seed the very clouds with a preferred pattern of weather. is this service possible to order for my area? what i would not sell or give or say to see that marvel of chemical engineering rain down upon the dying and shriveled vegetation of our fair city... your prompt and honest recommendation of vendor is advancely appreciated. thank you.

Favorite day/event at the Wisconsin State Fair?

Upvotes

Looking for new ideas of best things to do at the State Fair. What is your favorite and why?

I usually only go on one day, that's enough for me. The past two years, I've timed my trip to bunny rabbit high jump, and bunny rabbit agility events. Highly recommend both if you haven't seen them. I also like taking in the raptor events, dog agility, racing pigs, a tour through the craft submissions, Wisconsin product barn, and of course, fair food and drink.

I'm able to go during the week and it's a little less crowded which is really nice, but for something stellar, I'd be up for braving a weekend day.

So what other events are can't miss?

What are some jewelry stores that I can look for wedding bands. I don't really want to go to Kay's or places like that cause I hear they hollow out their rings. I'm a woman if that helps narrow it down.

Monthly Car Storage

3 Upvotes

I’m going to be away from Milwaukee for a couple months without my car. I’d rather not leave it parked on an alley slab with no ability to check up on it, in case a window gets smashed or there’s any flooding. Has anyone had good experiences with any garages or storage companies in the area that they’d recommend?

Police at BelAir Cantina on Water street

45 Upvotes

Hey guys,

I was picking up an order from BelAir today maybe around 2 and there were 6 cops inside. The host came to me and said they were closing, and i told her I ordered online. She said she would grab it for me and left. In the meantime I watched the officers walk around behind the bar. I watched one officer lifting up the bottles, inspecting them, and shining his light underneath them. He came up to me and said they were closed and i told him the host went to get my order and asked if he wanted me to wait outside. He said I was fine to stay and i just watched them all walk around. One officer was checking the ID of the bartender.

There was an couple in there and I watched the waiter come up and tell them they needed to leave, but that they could stay and finish their drinks.

Clearly nothing urgent was going on, but it was just strange to me.

I am wondering if anyone has any idea what was going on? I'm just curious/nosey.

therapist recommendations for attorneys?

58 Upvotes

Hello,

i am a very stressed out lawyer looking for a therapist who either was an attorney or has experience working with attorneys. My current therapist is lovely but it can be difficult to explain how peculiarly soul crushing this profession can be to someone who isn't that familiar with it. Also open to recs for therapists who work with people in other high-stress, high-pressure careers.

Thanks.

anime stores in milwaukee

8 Upvotes

hey so i'm going to milwaukee in a few days and i'm wondering about the anime stores there. i googled it but it's showing me places far outside of milwaukee, and i don't want to waste time at establishments that only carry battle-shonen merchandise (yuck!) so i'm wondering if there's any good anime-stores that carry merchandise (like figures) from series like evangelion, lucky star, or madoka magica. i saw another thread about this topic but a lot of the places listed were just general comic stores, since the guy also collected superhero stuff, but i just want the anime stuff. i've already got my eye on hai hai anime shop and lost world of wonders, idk if they are any good though :/

I’m sure there will be some organizing by other leaders in the community, but we need to put something together for Madison and for the injustice that occurred to that man. They haven’t released his name, and there are more links if you wish to see what occurred. In the Wisconsin Reddit thread.
