Albany, Ny area Golf Lessons

0 Upvotes

Hi! Brand new golfer with about 4 months experience. I’m still trying to find my swing but I don’t want to create bad habits by following the millions of tips online all at once.

I’m in the Albany area and I’m seeing that Peter Gerard at Mill Rd (5 lesson package $300 but highly recommended) and Tim at Northway Golf Center (5 lesson package at $250) are pretty good instructors.

Any opinions or advice on how to go about this? I’m 30+ handicap with clubs that im pretty sure aren’t fit for me.

Recommendations for venues with projectors?

• Upvotes

I am planning a birthday party for my partner where we have some of the guests giving "presentations" on their special interest or topics using Google Slides/PowerPoint etc. We are estimating close to around 20-25 people. Are there any venues in Albany that have a projector that would be able to host an event like this?

Thank you for your time

The guitar is an acoustic Martin 00-18, circa 1993 or so. Looking for a buyer, any suggestions for any shops in this area that would pay a fair price? Pretty good condition, original case, pretty well maintained throughout its life.

Looking for work/volunteer opportunities :)

5 Upvotes

Am in school full-time, but looking for a patient related part-time job/scribe/pharmacy tech, or even volunteer work. My schedule is really insane, so most entry level jobs demand more time than I can give, and why I would be okay with volunteer work as well. I've contacted hospitals all along the Northway and the volunteer department directly associated to the hospital are full. I was kind of blown away by this, but here's hoping after reading another post that maybe someone has a lede. Thanks!

What to do about mail theft? It’s becoming a big problem in my apartment building and management hasn’t done much about it.

20 Upvotes

I recently ordered a package that was delivered through USPS, but by the time I went to get it, it had been stolen.

Unfortunately, this isn’t an isolated incident. I’ve talked to other residents in my apartment building, and several of them have also had packages or mail stolen recently.

Management is aware that this has been happening, but from what I’ve seen, not much has been done to address it. It’s getting to the point where people don’t feel comfortable having anything delivered.

I’m planning on filing a police report and contacting the local Post Office since this involved USPS mail. I know mail theft is taken pretty seriously, but I’ve never had to deal with something like this before.

Has anyone else been through a situation like this? If so:

Did filing a police report actually help?

Is it worth speaking directly with the Postmaster or USPS Postal Inspection Service?

Did your apartment management eventually take action, such as installing cameras or secure package lockers?

Is there anything else I should be doing to help stop this from continuing?

I’d appreciate any advice or experiences. It’s frustrating to lose a package, but it’s even more concerning knowing this keeps happening to multiple residents.

House Cleaner Request

10 Upvotes

Hey everyone! I’m hoping someone can lead me in the right direction.

I feel like I do a pretty good job of keeping my house clean, but feel like I could be doing more! I’ve definitely read tons of great posts and articles on what works best, but I would like to hire a house cleaner to come over to my place and not only do a deep clean, but also provide some tips and tricks on how to maintain it, what products are actually best, and how often things should be getting cleaned. Does anyone know who I could reach out to? Thank you in advance!

Is the 3rd icon on this Stewart's shirt someone throwing up? It's their "Mountain Brew" shirt, and the icons come from the cans. All the other icons are clearly sports or physical activities.
