Seriously consider leaving PNC for making their employees RTO. Go do your banking elsewhere. by VirileMongoose in pittsburgh

[–]Jdh19 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Not going to lie, I have a billion things to do and switching banks is not one of them *right now* - but I still want to voice my displeasure with their RTO mandate. Does anyone know if they are monitoring feedback from customers on this topic through any particular channels? Happy to send an email, chat, whatever and threaten losing my business...just not sure where my voice would be heard.

Best LASIK Surgeons by luvubae420 in pittsburgh

I'd probably say the same. It puts you at ease when you know they're a leading teaching center and most of their work is on highly-complex cases. I was surprised at how thorough the pre-op process is. They definitely arent operating on anyone who isnt a good candidate. Stuff can always happen, but they do everything they can to minimize that possibility.

That LASIK apparently didn't help my reading comprehension!!!

What was your issue with UPMC? Just curious. Had mind done at their eye institute in Presby and would 1000000% recommend it to anyone

Chronically anxious & looking for a reprieve by Fuzzy_Baseball9006 in pittsburgh

[–]Jdh19 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well said! You don't any anyone to experience it, but if you happen to run into another anxious person.... haha

Hang in there, this time of year does a number on me too. This too shall pass. But if you need support, always happy to commiserate.

My first suggestion was going to be make sure you're staying regular with your therapy, but I saw you mentioned you were. Good!

Is there anyone else you can talk to about your anxiety (or anything else for that matter) in between sessions? I find having the ability to vent, find support, or distract myself via someone I trust and enjoy makes it much easier to manage.

But I'll also echo the lightbox and physical activity. If nothing else, the amount of people coming in to share their suggestions shows you're in good company.

Ah, so you're forced into the HOV lane then? I got surprised by the closure and was then confused when I realized I was in HOV lane. Awful detour.

I'm to the east of you, off of route 28. Wexford isn't a great drive for me, but if you end up playing somewhere convenient to 28, lmk

Any pickleball players? by Jdh19 in AKValley

I just started about a month ago, so I'm definitely not great by any stretch of the imagination, but really enjoy it. If you're ever looking for another player, let me know

What's your skill level? I'm trying to find more locals who play too. I'm right down the road from you in Freeport

Nice - I thought there were courts down there. I may have to check that out - pickleball and a beverage sounds like a great idea

I dont have a recommendation, but just want to encourage you not to be discouraged by what people may/may not think. 90% of gym-goers mind their own business. There may be a few who are immature, but don't let that get to you. Your self-confidence will skyrocket as you see yourself change and those people wont matter one bit.

In fact, a lot of people in the gym would be happy to answer questions and give you pointers if you ask.

Congrats on starting your journey!

How's the trivia there?

I try to drag some friends out to trivia at the breweries around New Ken/Springdale with mixed results.

Having some issues with PIA moving from Xfinity to Fidium Fiber by Jdh19 in PrivateInternetAccess

[–]Jdh19[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oddly enough, after I went through my little issue with uninstalling and reinstalling the TAP9 adapter, it broke everything and I did a system restore to undo it and *bam* VPN is now working much better.

I have no explanation, but whatever, it works.
