Another e30 coming to Dallas

[z31maniac]

Congrats! Dont think of it as "growing up", think of it as the best times of your life are just beginning. You just need to up the responsibility and make the best out of whatever comes your way. Good luck!

Cash > school.

Mind if we ask what you'll be doing?

For the first 18 months I'll be in an operations development program in a distribution center. Its broken down into 3 cycles, 1st is basically being an employee..nothing special, 2nd is basically an assistant supervisor to the DC, the 3rd is I'll have most of a supervisors role.

And that means.....

I live in Frisco (North Dallas). PM me if you need any advice. I work in the 635/Tollway area. The tollway in the early AM has been a lot of fun for the S52 :)
There are a lot of good areas to live that is close to fun and a lot of good looking women here also :)

And that means.....

haha, logistics/operations

I've been looking on DPD's website and can't find anything on CCW's. Do any you guys know off the top of your head some rules for CCW? Here we make an appointment with the sheriff and he approves you. I need to know if having my Ohio CCW will transfer to Texas or if I need to make an appointment with Chuck Norris haha.

I don't think that's really fair to say. Jordan isn't the kindest guy on the internet, but he's pretty damn nice in person. He'll go way out of his way to help almost anyone.

Haha...I know its hard to sense sarcasm online. I've met him in person before at Teaguer's shop. He's pretty cool in person.

haha..well I've heard that he's a pretty good guy off the forums but all I have to go by is forums. I guess when I get down there maybe I'll meet him.

That's what I was thinking but wasn't sure.

Congrats on having a job before graduating. I just started a new job last month and had two headhunters call me the 2nd week I was there.

I was pissed because one of them was for a job I had applied for awhile back that would have probably been $10k more a year.

I think you'll really like Dallas compared to Ohio. Theres alot of bmw guys here.

Wrong location

[houstonh]

Dallas is:
Cheap to live, expensive to party
flat as shit
Hot in the summer and cold in the winter.

...but the women make it all worth it :)

So just a small update. I recieved the locations of where I'll be working, for security reasons I won't be putting a specific location up.

There are 2 DC's. 1 in Grand Prairie and the other is in Roanoke. I'll be flying down next saturday to check out apartments.

Anyone fimiliar with the areas and maybe could shine some light on locations to live? its pretty darn close to DFW so I'm guessing traffic is going to be really shitty every day. I wanted to get a place in the middle but that would seriously put me RIGHT near DFW.

Grapevine, Euless, Southlake, Westlake, Colleyville, & Coppell are pretty good places to live. North Ft Worth is also pretty nice too.

South Dallas & Oak Cliff general area is where you want to avoid. Arlington & Grand Prairie is an okay place to live, but not all that great.

[Mastrcruse]

Grapevine, Euless, Southlake, Colleyville, are pretty good places to live. North Ft Worth is also pretty nice too.

The above cities that you listed seem to fit the location I'm looking for pretty well. Anyone of those stand out as being a better place to live then the others? I'd like to stay around 600 a month for an 1 bdrm apartment..hopefully that is possible.

[Bimmerista]

Southlake is the "higher" class of all of the cities listed. But I don't there are any apartments or condos in all of Southlake, just homes. Colleyville & Euless are neighboring cities that may be the best bet.
