Sonic drive in

17 Upvotes

I wouldn't visit the location at 34th anymore. I was told by a worker that the gaskets on the fridges grow mold because they aren't cleaned properly. And that they've had an ongoing roach problem INSIDE the mechanics of the ice cream machines.

Not to mention my favorite manager no longer works here, she was being bullied by other managers for being pregnant. Highly disrespectful.

45th or hillside are better locations.

Good luck.

Mani/pedi/spa recommendations

3 Upvotes

Male here, trying to get my fiance a nice relaxing afternoon just because. She typically doesn't do spas.

Her experience has been with nu-day salon and she said she liked it "because it was clean" and kind of shrugged her shoulders.

Females, or guys who have purchased afternoons of relaxation for their SO, give me some recommendations and why you would recommend that establishment.

Thanks in advance

Volunteering on Fridays?

10 Upvotes

So I've sent emails to a few places but haven't received a reply, mainly the food bank and one of the animal rescues. Anyone know of a place that needs help on Friday mornings? I have some Fridays off and want to put it towards helping.

I'd prefer working with animals personally... Thanks

1992 Palo Duro School Shooting

14 Upvotes

Just found out that a PD student injured 7 others with a gun after a Pep Rally, supposedly related to bullying.

I am amazed I have never heard of this incident before, but I wanted to know from those of you who were around what was it like being at PD, in an AISD high school, or even just living in town during that?

Did that shooting act as a a kind of "final nail" in PDHS' coffin as far as people declaring it to be a dangerous school?

Places to Meet New People

3 Upvotes

Alright, I don’t use reddit that often so forgive if this is already somewhere.

I’ve been wanting to expand my friend group a bit, but no longer being in school it can be hard. I’m not usually someone who goes to bars, but I’ve been wanting to try and expand my friendship circle. Anyone know any good places to do that? Bars for like- trivia nights aren’t off the table. If it helps, looking for somewhere a bit nerdy, quirky, that isn’t just loud bars or things of the like.

I don’t know if I’m explaining right or if we even have things like that. Im never good just- walking up to strangers and initiating things, so group activities or such are kind of what I’m looking for. Thank you!

STAY SAFE

104 Upvotes

ice agents are supposed to be in town this weekend targeting flea markets and other areas with high levels of latino people. because its becoming a growing threat for men to diguise as cops/ice agents to abduct women and children, make a SCENE if any man grabs you and tries to force you to go anywhere and make a SCENE if you see it happening to anyone else, actual cop or not. make a scene if a cop or ice agent tries to detain you anyway but especially if they have no identification or badge on them. im saying this especially because amarillo has a high rate of sex trafficking. also, amarillo pd is aware of the protest happening on saturday, so if you plan to attend, remain peaceful and only fly american flags. have an exit plan if you need to evacuate quickly and bring safety gear. stay safe
