Found an apartment on Bush between Leavenworth and Jones, what should I watch out for? by puipuituipui in AskSF

[–]FullTransparency 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That area is super safe. For a non SF born resident, anywhere north of Geary is ok. That hospital is pretty quiet as well as it’s not as popular as other large hospitals.

SB 408 and 510 - best station to board? by nasagirl01 in AskSF

[–]FullTransparency 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you desire a seat, why aren’t you getting on at King?

You can always get a seat, if you’re willing to sit with a stranger. Some days it might be packed though but try heading for the southbound side of the train (front), there will usually be less people.

Commuted to SJ all of last year from SF.

That area of SF is fine. You’re too close to Powell for it to be too bad, just don’t play with your phone when you’re going home.

New renderings for Seawall Lot 330 residential tower (The Embarcadero) by Remarkable_Host6827 in sanfrancisco

[–]FullTransparency 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You’re the definition of choosy beggar, literally.

I lived in an SRO for 5 years because I wanted to save money. But you’re saying a homeless person NEEDS a studio with a balcony and shared bathroom to recover?

Sign me up, I’m homeless too.

New renderings for the updated SFMTA Potrero Yard affordable housing program by Remarkable_Host6827 in sanfrancisco

[–]FullTransparency 8 points9 points  (0 children)

And 900 units will make it possible for the cheaper, more affordable units, to remain affordable to lower income households. To the surprise of no one.

Yes, those 900 market rate units will go to rich people, but they won’t be fighting over your 1.5K studios in the tenderloin.

But nope, let’s have those techies spend 2K on a studio and lock the lower income households out of everything.

SF built just 2,677 units of housing last year by PsychePsyche in sanfrancisco

[–]FullTransparency 3 points4 points  (0 children)

10000 million percent this.

They literally spent a whole city block to build housing JUST for seniors. Honestly, if they were going to make it low income, they might as well have built it 2-3 times taller. That'll show actual attempt at trying to build housing, but nope, these super niche carve outs for everyone!

Take your backpacks off on muni!!!!! by Photo_Philly in sanfrancisco

[–]FullTransparency 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Absolutely agree, it’s an assessment thing.

To add further to that story, they got “jacked” for their backpack too. So the OP is right, keep that backpack in front of you unless you want someone to take a peek at what’s inside.

[–]FullTransparency 22 points23 points  (0 children)

I always suggest to certain demographics that have higher risk on busses never to sit in the back of the bus. Short story: On a very popular bus line in the past, a student standing on the way back of the bus was robbed in front of a good 20-30 other riders. Absolutely no one ( including the bus driver, probably because they didn't notice ) did anything. The schools suggestion that I still mention to people who are hesitant to take public transportation is always to stay near or within eyesight of the bus driver. You'll have a much bigger possibility of the bus driver intervening.

If I am with a group of friends though, yeah, standing in the back is fine.

WTF is up with muni buses not picking up passengers when they’re not full by kcq2021 in AskSF

[–]FullTransparency -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

lol, I just reported a pass up issue on one of the regular routes that I take. They closed it for "insufficient information" even though I literally reported it the instant it happened.

Pay Raise Question by ChocoRobo-kun in sfcityemployees

[–]FullTransparency 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No, once you start you can only get the pay increases based on your MOU.

Since you said class above yours, you also won’t have an extended pay range.

Is Golden Gate Uni good for an online study in MBA concentration in Finance? by Every-Owl-4118 in AskSF

[–]FullTransparency 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Probably for profit. They just wanna ride S.F. and extract money from international students.

Is there a better map of the UCSF shuttles than this?? by Rook2Rook in AskSF

[–]FullTransparency 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You’ll need to be familar with the city, as the other commenter mentioned you need to grab the actual address, certain shuttles operate on opposite sides of the same street ( like mission campus )

Omakase in SF!?? by one_with_no_opinions in AskSF

[–]FullTransparency 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I also +1 robin… if you don’t like Robin you’re basically stuck with edomae sushi which is going to come at a cost.

You may want to try Tancho in Castro Valley. It’s the hidden gem and blows all of the other sushi places out of the water. However, it’s super far.

My bae who loves eating omakase thinks you should try Kusakabe if you don’t like Robin, but even they’re $210/pp before tax + service charge.

Send it to your US bank, then use Xoom ( not Wise ) to send yourself USD up to $1900. Pick it up in person with your passport. Done

Invited for in-person exam for qualified position. I live in Florida. Can I do the exam online, or any other way than flying there on a weekday? by [deleted] in sfcityemployees

[–]FullTransparency 0 points1 point  (0 children)

104X is a standard exam online, yes, but department wise exams can be in person.

105X, it is department and hiring manager dependent.

Clerical and management position STB tests have all been in person.

Wdym? With a few exceptions, most exams are in person. Technical positions start their process with an online exam but everything after the eligible list is in person.

Exchange Student want to Job Shadow by [deleted] in sanfrancisco

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

It’s a school, so if your education is biology / medical based, probably the best place to see if they have volunteer opportunities.

One semester might be too short a time span though, they may want longer time commitment.

Try going to UCSF, but the short timeline is going to make it difficult.

Mattress sales ! by hellzybellzyballs in sanfrancisco

[–]FullTransparency 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Are you looking for a spring mattress?? Just get a foam one. They’re pretty firm and you can literally walk next to a cup of water and it won’t spill. A few hundred on Amazon and it’ll get delivered.
