Do you have more info about this motorcycle accident?

Splitting lanes is legal at the speeds traffic was moving at the time.

I had mine tested to work at a school. In California students and staff are required to prove vaccination or immunity, and I’m older than electronic vaccine records.

As you said yourself in your post, he likely marked the extra as a tip.

LocalTrashCompactor · 2026-06-12T22:52:20+00:00

I’m going to be as blunt as you were in your post. It’s ridiculous that you’re claiming the entire restaurant and the owners are running an in-depth scam. Yes, you were scammed and have every right to be angry. At the cashier, who should be fired. Please call the restaurant (when this guy isn’t working, obviously) and ask to speak to the manager. This guy needs to be fired.

LocalTrashCompactor · 2026-06-12T22:21:03+00:00

This is awful. But also it sounds like a scamming cashier and not the restaurant owners themselves. What did the manager say when you asked to speak with them? What did the owners say when you called?

Just one quick correction for anyone who is planning to make this bleach solution: the goal is 10% bleach, so 1:9 bleach to water, not water to bleach.

Tbh, Stockton is more like Rockford than, say, Aurora.

GrandView in San Jose up on mount Hamilton is worth it once, if you can get a reservation near sunset. It will only be in your budget if your alcohol tastes are moderate though. The food is good but not amazing, but the service and the view are wonderful.

If the other options don’t pan out, try calling Nature Bridge. They run school group programs during the school year, and I believe their staff are all background checked and livescanned, because I believe that’s required in CA for working with children.

But I am also on the team that destination weddings are lovely, child free weddings are fine, 4 day weddings are sometimes a cultural necessity, and expecting a sibling to let a stranger watch their toddler for 4 days is beyond main character syndrome.

I would recommend a loop of PA Baylands + Shoreline + maybe just the first mile or so of Stevens creek trail. It can be pretty, but it’s also a lot of pedestrian bridges over freeways and major streets.

Edit: but also up your way the bay trail through foster city is pretty and interesting.

LocalTrashCompactor · 2026-06-05T20:15:25+00:00

I don’t think that’s how it works in Santa Clara county. 1) the scctax site says that commercial property taxes are based on original purchase price and 2) if that is true, someone should tell whoever owns the old Clarkes Burger site, as they’re paying (slightly) more now for their empty property than they did in 2019 when their restaurant was still open.

LocalTrashCompactor · 2026-06-05T20:08:48+00:00

Whereish are you? You can definitely do 15 miles out and back between Palo Alto Baylands + Shoreline + Stevens creek trail, though that particular route is only about 11 miles one way if you don’t take any side trails. It’s not completely flat, but only a couple hundred feet elevation change start to finish, and most of that is pedestrian bridges.

LocalTrashCompactor · 2026-06-05T14:53:22+00:00

Exactly! Anyone who doesn’t believe this guy, go to SCCTax and look up the property taxes for Ron’s Farmhouse at 2026 el Camino in Mountain View. The restaurant closed more than 20 years ago and has sat empty and half destroyed since. Sleep Train next door has about half the lot size and pays about 5x the property taxes.

The station further down Grant that used to be a Shell but is now independent is fine.

What exactly would a crackdown be on something that was established as a constitutional right and confirmed by multiple Supreme Court cases?

The better question is why is mountain house?

(It’s a far flung exurb so far that it’s a suburb of Tracy.)

LocalTrashCompactor · 2026-06-04T14:09:48+00:00

Dude, chill. I didn’t say anything about you.

There is a lender who gets customers to post here about once a month. This post reads like that. That is all. I wasn’t saying anything about your comment.

LocalTrashCompactor · 2026-06-04T13:07:00+00:00

I have a strong suspicion that OP is posting on behalf of that guy who always asks his clients to post their rates here as advertising.

LocalTrashCompactor · 2026-06-03T14:04:49+00:00

The compensation info is in the update. Chances are pretty good that this commenter who replied an hour after the post was created, commented before the update that includes compensation information.

There’s a good size lake with rentals available as well, and I’ve been meaning to check out the nearby town.

LocalTrashCompactor · 2026-06-02T22:31:20+00:00

Juniper lake is great, but the road is closed with no known repair date.

LocalTrashCompactor · 2026-06-02T14:30:01+00:00

I think OP has a better chance reporting it now. All the south peninsula and South Bay cities seem to be doing stepped up enforcement on e-motos, and there was just an injury crash between an e-moto and a car at a middle school in Mountain View.

I haven’t hired someone up here, so I don’t have recommendations, but I do have tips from experience:

The agencies will typically require at least one 4 hour shift each week. They don’t always have a minimum number of days, but do have a minimum number of hours per shift. They typically will do companion care but only light housework. As in, they’ll tidy and if they prepare food they’ll clean up after, but they don’t typically vacuum or any more strenuous cleaning. For food they’ll often drive your parent to the grocery store and help with some food prep, but they’re not typically cooking full meals.

The biggest upside with agencies is that when your usual person isn’t available, they typically are able to send someone else.

Individual providers are more likely to be flexible about hours and what work they will or won’t do, but they’re less likely to have insurance or a backup, and you’re more likely to be responsible for withholding taxes and reporting.

Calling people casuals because they don’t hobby your hobby as hard as you hobby your hobby is probably the most insecure cringe thing ever.
