Same. That's also our go to for pre-employment fingerprinting.NTP66 wrote: ↑Wed May 25, 2022 3:03 pmGotta say, it was stupid easy for me to get the interview setup. I used IdentoGO, which has a ton of locations, and had the pick of the litter.shoeshine boy wrote: ↑Wed May 25, 2022 3:01 pmthe hard part is getting your interview. when I did mine, my original interview was something like 4 months away but I kept checking the schedule every day and within a week or two, one opened up MUCH earlier.

Those of you who travel a lot - @Orlando Penguin or @RonnieFranchise, maybe some others: I sleep in two different places during the week, and have since late February. A couple of times a week, I wake up in a panic and not know where I am for a minute or so. Scary, and I get so discombobulated that I can't fall back asleep. Does this happen to anyone else?
I usually look for the smoke detector lights, which are in different locations in my bedrooms at home and the apartment I'm renting.

That's definitely happened to me. Not frequently but when we were doing training roadshows and might be in TX, CA, NY, elsewhere in PA.... all within the space of a few months, I'd wake up and have to think about where I even was.
I wouldn't say panic necessarily but I've definitely been confused.

Have not had that issue...yet. I think because the vast majority of my trips are for a full week, it may not be as prevalent as if I was going from one city to another every couple of days. With the 3 1/2 week stretch I have coming up beginning tomorrow, my sense of 'where am I' will be tested pretty good.DigitalGypsy66 wrote: ↑Sat Jun 04, 2022 10:10 am Those of you who travel a lot - @Orlando Penguin or @RonnieFranchise, maybe some others: I sleep in two different places during the week, and have since late February.

I was in State College last weekend. Went in to get a drink and an MTO. A guy was walking around slowly, just meandering, constantly in the way. By the time I got in line and paid he wandered back out to go stand around his Tesla for another half hour or so.
I don't think that Sheetz has a seating area but I don't remember specifically. They need to come up with somewhere to put those people. Maybe a self-contained space with cushy seats, climate control, and an infotainment system. Not in the actual gas station building but nearby...

Yeah we just chilled in the car once we got food and drinks.

Gas prices are fine.
Anecdotal, but there is ZERO impact on driving behavior. I delivered a trailer I sold down to Raleigh, NC today. Driving back it was a continual conga line the entire way. I-81 was a 70mph parking lot. Rt. 30 was a train.
Cars, trucks, motorcycles, classic cars, RVs, you name it.
Prices are never coming down.

There are an extraordinary amount of people on vacation this week/next. My oldest son’s teacher played hooky the last week of school to go to Ireland. Half of my team was out of the office today on vacation. Heck, look at NTP pulling his daughter out of school a few days early so they could safely go on vacationdodint wrote: ↑Fri Jun 10, 2022 6:24 pm Gas prices are fine.

Let’s wait a few weeks to see if the traveling frenzy continues.

I’m just glad that I don’t drive much, because these gas prices are insane.

I set a new personal record with a $145.20 fill. And that was in WV where it is cheaper than here.

I agree that gas prices aren't coming down but in case they do, this was a decent year to do a major remodel and not go anywhere. Not that it's not affecting the price of that, too.

I don't think I've ever been this nervous before a trip before, feeling sick to my stomach worrying about things with only a few days to go. Part of my worry was about possible bad weather impacting flights, so I risked it and looked at the forecast just now - clear, sunny, and warm. Hope it stays that way and we have no travel issues, because it's going to be bad enough spending 14 hours in total at the airport and in the air.

Any tips for San Diego dinning and beer? One place that's certainly on the list is Pacific Beach for a visit to Oscars Mexican Seafood, but beyond that I'm open for suggestions.

We had a really good Italian meal in San Diego, but for the life of me I can't recall the name of the restaurant that we went to.

Neat... Little Italy is a neighborhood that I've read about and would like to go visit one day as I didn't go there last time.
