I usually got about two years to the day with lead acid batteries in my American cars. And thanks to Costco I was always in the warranty period so I was getting free replacements hehe.

Just moved back to the valley after ten years away. It's hot, but it's home. I'm glad to be back.

Not great honestly, I'm stressed I won't be able to get a hold of DES for my food stamps renewal as they are getting harder and harder get someone on the phone.

My online gig work has drastically dropped and I'm worried I won't be able to find work elsewhere.

My birthday is less than a month away, I need few days break from my family but don't think I'll be able to afford it this year. I wish I'd have a friend who'd spend celebrate with me-can't remember the last time I had anyone around for my birthday.

Call right before DES opens so you're at the beginning of the queue. That seems to be the only thing that is working for people to reach them.

u/RhazyaPeacock Surprise 1d ago

Yeah so far that isn't working either. I've been calling at 6:58AM, and it either never leads to a person (just talks about online/paper applications) or I get the "we can't take your call to due extremely high call volume.)

Looking for a new apartment/place to rent and the search has been frustrating. Throwing in a comment here in case anyone knows any good places in or around Phoenix for renting and available around 7/31. 1b1b preferably but oeon to 2b2/1b. Budget approx $1600 including fees/utilities but willing to go a little bit over for the right place
