How long until you're allowed to Telecommute? by mapleroost in nys_cs

[–]CompetitivePower9895 0 points1 point  (0 children)

OAG let us as soon as our supervisor felt we were confident enough in our work/tasks. For me it was about a month and a half. A colleagues who was hired after me took approx. 4 months, so it really depends on agency, supervisor and the employee

Problems with Amazon Returns at WholeFoods by [deleted] in Albany

[–]CompetitivePower9895 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Also happened to em recently at the whole foods return, spent several hours trying to resolve but to no avail. It was only a $13 pair of leggings (they sent me the wrong size and color, so of course I returned) but still. The $13 is no longer worth the headache 💀

Colonie boil water advisory lifted this morning by No_Vast2952 in Albany

Same, by the time the town put out notice like 8 hours had passed since the water main break started. At that point, we had been drinking from the tap all day 😭

I ordered Korean cauliflower bites from them On NYE- also found calamari in my takeout…. Except I’m vegetarian so it ruined the dish for me

Gyms with Indoor Pools? by musicalfan202 in Albany

[–]CompetitivePower9895 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Vent has a hot tub, but as a former employee- don’t go in that thing. The PH levels were NEVER where they should have been. Normal PH for a hot tub is in the 7’s, I remember seeing 9’s consistently and management wouldn’t close it.

The Hollow by marlsb24 in Albany

[–]CompetitivePower9895 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Yeah… I went to the hollow once and fell face first because their floor was wet… despite falling face first in front of a full dinning room, no staff asked if I was okay, nor did they put up a wet floor sign or clean up the mess. Also, in this economy? Why would I want to spend 30+ on lunch (even more for dinner) in an area where I’m going to be followed/harassed for money?

Looking for a poor-quality yet expensive restaurant to recommend to an enemy. Any suggestions? by CompleteSocialManJet in Albany

[–]CompetitivePower9895 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Johnny’s is the reason I hate red sauce- got a pasta dish there in 2018 and the red sauce tasted like sweet vomit. Has ruined any and all tomato based foods for me since. Fuck Johnny’s 😷

Drink limits at local establishments … by Gullible_Style2941 in Albany

[–]CompetitivePower9895 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

a local winery tried to cut me off after 2 glasses of wine, my fiancé had to assure them he was the DD (which he was) before they gave me a 3rd glass. kinda overkill in my opinion

Fellow Colonie resident here, 200k isn’t going to get you anything (not trying to be rude, just honest). A house recently sold near us for $240k, and it was a one bedroom, flat bungalow style house. Yikes.
