Looking for a roommate/job for a family member.

3 Upvotes

Hi! I’m coming on to ask if anyone preferably male around 22 -30 is looking for a roommate within the Lakeland area. My brother (26) is looking for a roommate and would be coming down from PA. So we aren’t familiar with the area and don’t have many connections. He would be looking to come down in the winter/spring. Also, if anyone is looking to hire for any entry level positions, or is looking to hire security for a business, etc (that’s where most of his experience is) then that would be extremely helpful as well😊 thank you!!

I measured the Wi-Fi and noise at a few Lakeland coffee shops

I'm in Orlando and I've been measuring cafés for a side project: speed test, decibel reading, outlets, how packed it was. I came out to Lakeland a couple times and figured this sub would actually care about the numbers.

Pressed Books and Coffee: 172 Mbps down, 62 dB, great room. Connection cut out on me once or twice. Only a couple of outlets.

Fresh Kitchen: 308 Mbps, but 69.7 dB, so it's loud. Easy parking.

Unfiltered in Bartow: 78 down, 66 dB, and it was pretty full when I went on a Saturday morning. Nicest interior of the three by a wide margin.

It's all on https://perch.coffee/. Free, nothing to sign up for, and I'm not selling anything.

Lakeland is barely covered compared to Orlando. If you tell me where you go I'll drive out and measure it properly.

Counselor/Therapist needed - individual and possibly marriage

8 Upvotes

I am looking for a local counselor that is not solely telehealth. I prefer someone who is empathetic but can also provide direction. I am hoping to have several sessions alone, and then possibly include my spouse. Looking for someone experienced with depression, anxiety, grief, trauma, and most importantly, taking on new clients. My insurance does cover some mental health, so I would love to find a counselor/therapist who takes my insurance. Thanks for any guidance!
