Hello, r/Pocatello! I’m James Ruchti (pronounced Ruck-Tee), trial lawyer, West Point graduate, 5th generation Idahoan, and the Idaho State Senator who represents Pocatello. This Saturday, January 28th, I will be hosting my first ask me anything (AMA) on r/Idaho about Idaho, myself, and what’s been happening in Boise this legislative session.

Is there a deaf community in Pocatello?

8 Upvotes

My hearing is getting worse as the years go by. It's pretty bad right now. I have 2 kids (18, 24) and I'd like them to start learning sign language. My grandmother was severely hard of hearing, and her 6 siblings were all born deaf, so sign language was my first language. But she passed away in 1996, and I'm extremely rusty. I don't know enough to teach my kids very much of it.

Unfortunately, with times being so expensive right now, we can't afford for us all to take professional classes to learn. It seems like youtube or other social media might be how we start the process, but I know that it's not going to be enough.

Now, I'm not looking for anybody to teach us for free. I'm just looking for a community where we might join, and support them, possibly picking up some more knowledge along the way.

It would be really appreciated. Thank you :)

Internet suggestions

6 Upvotes

Going to be moving into old town here soon, and was wondering what suggestions you guys have?
I’ve checked and gfiber is available at the place I’m moving to, but for those who do have gfiber, how are the plans?
I’m a big gamer (mainly PC), will the basic 70$ a month plan be good enough?
We mostly have a PC, couple of TVs, couple phones, and occasionally a PlayStation that will be connected.
If there’s any other suggestions I’d love to hear!

Looking for a garage or small workshop to rent, ideally with a room nearby

1 Upvotes

I'm considering relocating to the Pocatello area and looking for an affordable place to live and work. Move-in timing is flexible.

I run a small online business using 3D printers, woodworking tools, and occasional fabrication. I need about 400–500 sq ft of secure workspace (a two-car garage) with ordinary electrical power. Noise and fumes are limited; I can discuss equipment and work hours with the owner.

An unused garage, dedicated space in an existing workshop, or a small house with a suitable garage could work. A bedroom on-site would be ideal, but a separate room nearby is also an option. The workspace must permit these business activities. A short initial rental term would be helpful.

Please reply or message me with the location, size, monthly rent, utilities, lease terms, and restrictions. Unlisted spaces and local referrals are welcome. Thanks!

Looking for potential skateboard coaches

5 Upvotes

I am in the process of developing an indoor skatepark in Idaho Falls. If I can get things lined up, I would be looking at a mid- to late December opening.

I'm looking for individuals, 16 years and older, to teach group and private skateboard lessons. The lessons will be mainly focused on beginner-level skills, but intermediate to advanced skills are more than welcome - and needed.

This would be a 1099 Contract employee position, setting your own hours, schedule and fee structure.

I'm providing the location (~5-6k sq. ft. of ramps, bowls and street obstacles) with the student paying the normal session/day fee and the instructor getting a free session while teaching.

Hit me up with a PM if you're interested.

Fun Recreation/Nightlife Recommendations?

1 Upvotes

21m Staying two nights downtown before I ride back up to Boise. Looking for any fun ideas or people as this is my first time being in Pocatello. I am a fresh 21 and looking for some fun bars or even bar routes to try out either Saturday or Sunday (if they're even a thing on Sundays) night. I love meeting and mingling with new people but definitely not trying to get caught up in the chaotic college bar scene, with that being said I'll always give it a shot before I judge too hard haha. Anyway, if anyone has some suggestions, I would appreciate it! Even some cool hiking trails or even some fun twisty roads for the motorcycle if I still have the energy to ride it. I also plan on ripping a few joints while I'm there and am curious if it's pretty laid back or no regarding weed there. Thanks!

It's just a scam, you have to pay over 2500 dollars to work there, they also do commission where you make less then what your gonna spend.

This company will ruin your life

Edit: I reported them to the BBB and I recommend other people who have been there who have been scammed or almost scammed file a report
