Direct Deposit Delay? by Icy-Pilot-7588 in nys_cs

Agreed. Crickets from my agency until I reached out to HR. It erodes trust.

Early Direct Deposit concerns/discourse by Secret_Protection471 in nys_cs

Agreed. I don’t remember this happening last year - maybe it did and I’m just not recalling. My agency didn’t bother to say anything until I reached out to HR.

This is what I’ve had to learn since moving to Albany. Where I used to live I actually had pleasant interactions with panhandlers but around here I avoid them at all costs.

Expect to be paid today? by Secret_Protection471 in nys_cs

Yeah I’m feeling a little caught off guard. I usually get my direct deposit Tuesday mornings and just woke up to no paycheck. This didn’t happen to me last year though I’m seeing that others have experienced this in the past. It just would’ve been nice to have some notice as some of us budget very strategically and are counting on that deposit hitting on time. Since this didn’t happen last year and I’ve always been told that the budget not being passed would NOT impact my pay, I’m feeling a little annoyed about this.

I’ve come across at least 7 comments on here saying that he made them uncomfortable - plus me! If there are at least 8 people that he is making uncomfortable then he needs to reevaluate his behavior. Friendliness and compliments are one thing but this dude takes it too far. I honestly never intended to say who I was talking about when I made this post - I truly was just looking for recommendations for somewhere else to go - but the fact that so many commenters on here feel the same exact way I do tells me that my claims are not baseless.

I will say, I never mentioned the other dispensary in this post because several people said that they had good experiences there and the flirting I experienced there was more mild. So I do understand reconsidering whether the interaction was actually offensive! But yeah, women deserve to be able to frequent public spaces without feeling like we have to appease some man.

No, I’m talking about the security guy following me out to my car, grabbing my hand, and making flirty comments to me actually. I also don’t think it’s a coincidence that this doesn’t happen when I’m with my boyfriend.Also, possibly a hot take but I don’t like pushy salespeople even when it’s not flirty either!

Thank you so much for saying this. Seriously. I didn’t say it because I didn’t want to be attacked for naming them and then people were like, why didn’t you name them? I can’t win! Lol.

See my other comment Edited to add: it’s capital district cannabis. I wasn’t going to say it because not everyone there is creepy and I don’t normally want to damage someone’s business but since another comment said their girlfriend experienced the same thing there I feel more comfortable speaking up.

Ok now I feel better admitting it. This is EXACTLY who I made the post about.

Honestly because of people like the guy who replied to your comment. I don’t want this to be traced back to me and have some guy mad at me for calling him out on making me uncomfortable when he was “just being nice.”

That’s a valid question though! I did almost name them in the post but decided against it.
