Main thing I'll remember about TinyEvel is how he called us all fat when he left town.

My Lease home was $3,450 per month. To buy said house was well over $500,000 for a house that you could buy in KC for $200,000 MAX. Not a brand new home, either. Eastlake backs up to Chula Vista (or didn't you know that?) I suppose we COULD have lived in National City - but the stink of the Ocean ruled that out.. We were once refused service at the Burger King (Eastlake) directly in front of the Costco because we didn't speak Spanish. Honest to God - the female employee turned her back and walked into the back room. Great Times!! Thanks but no thanks....I'd prefer to leave the rest out (out of politeness). Look, if it's your thing then good on you! I'm truly happy for you. Just wasn't for me. |

Crazy, I'm whiter than Baron Trump and have never been refused service because of not speaking Spanish. Perhaps she had diarrhea from eating Burger King and was running to the bathroom

I know when I truly want to judge an area, I always go to a fast food restaurant and base my experience on that..
Wow... Not to derail the thread but you seem like a complete dipshit who is probably amazed when you and your shitty attitude don't get good service ...LOL!!! People like you are why it sucks to work in the service industry

I was born and raised in Kansas City. I lived there for 40 years. I moved to San Diego with my family 20 years ago and I love it here. I do miss the BBQ, going to the Chiefs and Royals games, and the low cost of living. I would move back to Kansas City in a heart beat if it wasn't for the jungle heat summers there.

I live in Mexico USA and have never been refused services. Even in an all Spanish speaking establishment and I don't speak Spanish. You were probably being a dick about something, dick.

I never minded KC's weather much when I lived there (even while traveling to LA a few times per year), but the weather there seems a bit ridiculous to me now.

So, just checking for understanding, you got shit canned and could't find another job in K.C.? Not that it matters, wishing you the best of luck.

I always knew it was hot and humid in the summer, with often crazy ice storms and rain in the Spring. But after living in Los Angeles for my first year and heading back to KC, I couldn't believe it. Earlier this year, we were in town in early March for six days. The first couple of days were cold and windy. The next couple were hot and extremely humid, with swirling hot and cold winds. From chilly to sweating in a matter of hours. On our return, it was 75 and extremely windy and humid. We were stuck in the KCI airport for four hours due to tornadoes and rain in the area. Despite being 75, the HEAT was on at KCI and everyone, from airport restaurant employees to people waiting for flight were absolutely dripping in sweat. I was told that the city controls the thermostat at KCI. Neato. |

With all due respect, and I probably shouldn't speak for TinyE, I don't doubt that there are very few job opportunities in his field in KC that pay comeasurate with his experience.

No, but I don't live in the valley, so it usually doesn't get above 100.... a lot of days in the high 80s/low 90s, but last year there were only 20 days over 95 and only 4 of those were 100+.
And even when it gets into the 90s, it still cools down into the low 70s or even high 60s at night (low 50s the past few nights)... as opposed to KC, where you might not catch one night to open the windows for a month at a time. I went to a spring training game and it was 95... obviously still pretty warm, but we sat in the shade the entire game and it was fine. Went back to KC a few weeks ago and it's already starting to feel sticky to me, heh. Speaking of, Phoenix is starting to get up there.... 115+ early next week.
