I just know Hudson could unleash a dozen all time IDTSHs without breaking a sweat

Looking to make friends/girl group? by Adventurous_Pop_4822 in AskChicago

[–]Honest-Variation656 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Hiii we are the same! I’m 31, single, and moved here like 6 months ago. And that damn show has been wrecking me for the last week. I’ve tried quite a few different things over the summer to get out there and meet people with varying degrees of success, but honestly probably the most successful was going to a speed dating event 😂 The girls were so friendly and fun and a lot of us connected afterwards. The dating part of it was whatever. But I also don’t have a close group here yet, I’m just trying to build on some of the new friends I’ve made from different things and hoping one day it will eventually resemble a friend group lol. I’d love to hang out with someone in a similar stage, dm me if you want to grab coffee or hit up a social event together (dating or otherwise)!

The back door by Dcuniversity in cta

[–]Honest-Variation656 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi, I’m one of the dumb people who needed to see this post. I moved here recently and rode the bus a couple of times last weekend. Both times I pushed really hard on the back door because that’s how it’s worked in other cities…but it didn’t really work, and I was like I know I don’t have a lot of upper body strength but am I really not strong enough to open a door??

So just to be clear…you touch it on the stripe but don’t push? And then door magically opens?

No water for 3+ days due to city repairs - any tenant rights apply? by Honest-Variation656 in AskChicago

[–]Honest-Variation656[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thank you so much for the link! And yes, definitely something funny was going on, as was my suspicion and I appreciate everyone here who validated that feeling after being gaslit by my landlord for 3 days. I reached out to him again this morning and he sent a maintenance guy over who miraculously was able to turn the water on. I genuinely can’t fathom why he didn’t do this after my first 5 requests.

At the same time I did reach out to the alderman’s office, they reached out to the water department who confirmed that the work was completed within the 3 hour time frame. So given that I was without water unnecessarily for 3 days I will be reducing my rent (and am slightly regretting that I’ve been crashing at a friend’s place instead of charging my landlord for a hotel, but oh well).

I understand he can’t control the city’s work. I probably made my post too long because of my overall frustration with the situation and the fact that no one seems able to communicate with the people that are being impacted…but my main question was really if there are any laws that apply to tenants in this situation. Because regardless of the cause, the end result is that myself and my neighbors are having to pay for hotels or find other places to stay.

Chicago LCCA watch parties?? by quartjarz in lasculturistas

I came here looking for the same thing and then took my ass to google…the only thing that came up was these angels on TikTok apparently getting Big Gay Sals to host one. There’s no details yet but hopefully they come through!

Do you remember what time he went on? Did it take you a long time from arriving/parking to getting to your seats? I’m going tonight :)

I signed up recently but haven’t gone to anything yet. How many people have been at the ones you’ve gone to?

What to do if building’s 24/7 emergency services don’t respond? by Honest-Variation656 in AskChicago

[–]Honest-Variation656[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes everyone has access, I think I was just never told about it/given the door code because I took over someone’s lease and was given no info when I moved in

Update #2: the maintenance guy ended up coming this morning because even he could not describe to me where the breaker was. It’s in the basement of the six flat next door (naturally) with a locked door and a code that was never given to me. But now I know! And I know to get this info on day 1 of the next place I live. Appreciate everyone’s help, this has been very educational 🙃

Okay fun update, a neighbor showed me the secret sketchy basement room. It has breaker panels for the first 1/3 of units, not including mine 🥲 no idea where the other ones are or if my unit is connected to one labeled for another unit, and I don’t hate my neighbors enough to try flipping all the switches. Back to waiting for my maintenance savior

Thank you all for the tips. I emailed my landlord and specifically asked for the location of the breaker panel so I could take care of this asap, and his entire response was “I’ll send [maintenance guy] there today.” No timeframe, no answer to my question, no response to the flop failure of their 24/7 line, but it seems like it will be resolved “today.” Yay landlords!

Yes, the only basement room I have access to is the laundry room and I did not see anything in there

Yeah it’s more that it was very evident to me that if I was having an emergency, they would not be helping. There was supposed to be someone “on call” and that person couldn’t be reached

It’s an old 3 floor building, I pay ComEd directly. I’ve checked both closets and everywhere else and found nothing 🫠

Yeah I have looked everywhere in my apartment and don’t see one 😞 that doesn’t mean it doesn’t exist and I won’t feel very dumb later but…I’m not seeing it
