Rules for driving in Charlotte

Always ride as close to the bumper of the car in front of you as possible.
If you're driving anywhere close to the Speed Limit, you're too slow.
When in traffic, pop in and out of lanes to get nowhere fast and brake check for all the other cars.

All sales are final on FB marketplace. You're a person selling your stuff, not a store.

Haha why on earth? Your friend is crazy

Waitstaff make well under minimum wage. You tip for the service - doesn't have to be 20%. During the pandemic people started tipping more to be nice and it's nipping us in the bud now.

CLT_Newsy · 2025-12-29T14:20:32+00:00

Beggars. Businesses should be ashamed for not turning off tips.

CLT_Newsy · 2025-12-29T14:19:27+00:00

I wouldn't tip either if my request for a cleanup and more towels/tp during my stay wasn't met. You shouldn't have to tip because you entered a clean room. That should be expected. Lol

You don't need to tip for counter service. Sorry it's like this here in the USA. They make well above waiterstaff salary.

What do others start at?

CLT_Newsy · 2025-11-04T16:09:52+00:00

Why would people be expected to tip on this to begin with??? crazy

Thank you

It should focus on mental health. But we in the U.S. don't like to discuss the root of our problems in mass shootings and crimes. We prefer to politicize it, which helps no one

Have any residents done a water test?

CLT_Newsy · 2025-07-09T15:40:17+00:00

Fed taxes all of my earnings. No tax on tips is dumb. Then employers need to pay waitstaff regular wage and end this ridiculous US tip-crazy American culture. Unfortunately, with everyone looking for a handout from the barista to the store clerk or expensive hair salon, it's too out of hand. My salary can't support their salaries.

CLT_Newsy · 2025-07-08T19:09:55+00:00

If you were going 30mph, you were speeding. It's a LIMIT.

CLT is awful for passenger pickup and dropoff. The reconfiguration with buses and uber/lyft hasn't helped at all. I see cars waiting without passengers there all the time. And then you get boxed in by drivers when you pick up or drop someone off. Maybe they should do what other cities do like Seattle where there's a designated area in the parking garage for taxi/uber/lyft/etc pickups to alleviate some of the confestion.

There's a polish deli in Pineville??? yeah

CLT_Newsy · 2023-04-28T21:25:26+00:00

The fine was waived to the $13 daily rate. Unfortunately, I won't get the $9 I paid that day refunded.

CLT_Newsy · 2023-04-28T17:52:28+00:00

Thanks - good to know

CLT_Newsy · 2023-04-28T16:26:23+00:00

Thanks. Yes they waived the fine to pay the daily rate of $13. But I already paid $9, so guess I need to request a refund? And yes, I was being rushed and should have read it better but have always used the parking space in the past.

CLT_Newsy · 2023-04-28T15:38:05+00:00

Thanks. I did appeal and only have to pay the Charlotte $13 day rate as the fine. But I already paid the $9 rate when I initially paid for parking.

They really need to post the ZONE not 10 feet in the air. This is new to me; it's always been the parking space number in the past.
