I know HRBT traffic is a pain. Not to mention the construction/accidents on top of that. Are y’all excited about the planned outcome? How much shorter (time wise) would your commute be after completion?

Was assuming WHRO would post this one but they didn't. heh. So I will. :)

NEWPORT NEWS, Va. (WAVY) – A CODI Alert has been issued for 17-year-old Daziya Veney on behalf of the Newport News Police Department, according to Virginia State Police.

According to NNPD officials, Veney is described as a black female who is approximately 5 feet 4 inches tall and weighs 120 pounds.

She was last seen at 9:30 p.m. Wednesday evening in the area of 400 Turlington Road wearing a black hoodie, a black head scarf and black and white pajama pants.

Vaney is considered endangered, with officials calling her disappearance a credible threat to her safety.

So I know Jlab just laid off a ton of people. I’m confused as to why they would go about doing that and then turn around and post so many jobs? The jobs are all over different departments of the lab, new engineers to directors… IT to acquisitions..?

Also a bit confused as to why there are so many different posting for construction engineers, construction managers, engineering project managers etc. Most of them are staff engineer III with slightly different reqs and roles. Even the supervisory roles are still level III, so again I’m confused why anyone would be a supervisor in the same ‘pay grade’. Are there really multiple different groups? Or is it a fishing expedition? Again seems super odd they would lay off people for budget cuts but then need to hire such a staff like this for capital improvements/costly construction.

Probably obvious but I can’t make rhyme or reason and would really appreciate some clarity. Ty!!

Just moved up here to work at the shipyard and wanting to get into mma as a 24 yea old male. Are there any gyms in the area?

Hi everyone! My husband and I are new to the area and we’re looking for a bar that does trivia on Thursday, Friday, or Saturday nights. We really like Tradition Brewing but they do trivia Wednesday nights. We’re willing to try up to the Williamsburg area as well! Thanks in advance for your help 🥰

Yorktown not NN, but I thought it was close enough and might well be of interest. Something to be cautious about, at least. Basically, someone listed a PS5 on FB marketplace and four armed men showed up to steal it. Ugh.

Hey! I’m looking for a studio or 1BR loft-style apartment in the Norfolk, Chesapeake, Newport News, or Portsmouth area. My budget is around $1,800–$1,900, and I’m aiming to move sometime between October and December. I’m active duty military and planning to rent, not buy.

If anyone has recommendations (apartment complexes, private landlords, or areas), I’d really appreciate it!. Also open to newer buildings or any hidden gems that might not be listed everywhere online

Looking for recommendations for a yard care service in the Newport News area. Most of the places I’ve checked seem more focused on basic mowing, but I’m also trying to get a little trimming and cleanup done around the yard. Nothing major, just having trouble finding someone for a smaller job.

Hi all, pretty much just the title. Do you guys have any recommendations for reasonably priced apartments in Newport News? Don't know much about the city other than the generic "some parts are nice and others are not" you see in every city.
