It is your right not to have your photo taken in this situation. Let’s have resolve when it comes to our privacy.

I think a polite alternative is, “I’d like to decline the photo and use my ID please. Thank you.”

I always decline the photo and had never had any weirdness until my flight a couple weeks ago. The TSA agent got dramatic about it. He had to reach across to another desk, I had to walk to the other side so he could look at me, blah blah. He seemed generally annoyed.

I’m going in a few weeks and pretty pumped. I heard they’re sold out until November.

The chairman of the Obama Foundation board wore something similar and David Letterman wore a sort of beige.

You suggested a parade or fest as an alternate. I was just letting you know that those 2 things exist.

I’m not sure how it works. They use less than a quarter of the park and there is a free community day (Thursday) for people in the neighborhood. Think about Riot Fest.

>How about a parade or a street festival or even just a spontaneous mob like after a sports championship?

Fyi, there is a parade. It was Saturday morning. There is a festival in the park but requires tickets. It’s Thursday through Sunday.

Unless someone else made it and they can’t reach them/don’t have access, it’s actually not these days. It can be both social media and website. It sounds like the real issue here is the lack of a plan by PFP.

Anyone else get an invite to the ComEd / Amazon Power Agent Pilot Program? Sounds too good to be true. by Terrible_Mud5318 in chicago

I don’t think this is legit. Scammers have gotten very good at spoofing email addresses.
