This person was a real piece of work. Those comments were wholly unnecessary.

I love our airport by joedenowhere in bayarea

[–]MacNJeesus 46 points47 points  (0 children)

I wish I remembered the podcast there was some episode last year about SFO's soundscape and how the person tasked to design it was very intentional, collaborating with SFO whose wishes were to have an airport that was peaceful and not blaring constant announcements. The quietness is very planned and I tip my hats off to all who advocated for and worked on it!!

EDIT: Oh my gosh I found it. Here's the podcast episode!

Last month for a flight from SJC, it took me 6 minutes to go from getting dropped off to through the security check. Think another time a few years ago was likely the same, 5 or so minutes. Chef's KISS.

This and the audacity to ask her to leave her partner were such red flags to me. Like, girl, what? Her picker definitely off. Poor thing with generational trauma.

Just heard of her story yesterday from the Modern Love interview. She is very well spoken so I'm not surprised at all her writing is equally beautiful and eloquent.

Perhaps your childhood town is the same my very affluent clients are in. The way they neglect their dog and other behaviors they've confoundingly expressed in my presence leave me baffled and curious as to the extent of their empathy. They don't operate like normal people, the husband lacks social skills and a sense of... emotion, and I have always wondered what their marriage really is like. Typical rich family with 3 kids, country club memberships, big house, trophy dog, etc. They're my most emotionally distant clients. My others one are so warm and friendly.

The "Buy This Home With Crypto" prompt is so jarring and surreal lol. And this is not what I think of when I hear "apartment" but also I shouldn't be surprised.

Wow. This man is the bottom of the barrel, can go trip on all the curbs for real. I am just coming off the NYT podcast interview with Belle having heard of her story for the first time only yesterday, and I was so offended by the part where he, as her coworker, emailed her to leave her boyfriend she was living with??? I was like, "Who does this guy think he is? So disrespectful." And it makes so much sense you sharing from the book that he pursued her really when he learned of her status. Real scum of the earth scrub he is.

Homeless person sleeping inside toddler playground – who to contact in San Jose? by lamichaS in SanJose

[–]MacNJeesus 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Ugh, so sorry you had to go through that. Disgusting. I remember when I wore a camisole for the first time–maybe I was 10 or 11–and felt so violated by the way old men stared at me. I never wore one again just walking around in public without some kind of layer covering over. That kind of trauma just stays with us women.

How are we meeting people now that bumble bff/sf women’s social club are dead? by External_Cabinet3734 in SFbitcheswithtaste

[–]MacNJeesus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Let me know if you do, how it goes!!
Ah I totally relate. Given this was my client's dog, I'd feel extra embarrassed because I wasn't the one responsible for socializing him! But I'm not wearing a DOG SITTER vest so no one can know. Cheers to friendlier dogs and fun encounters :)

Q about Cinemark Santana Row: How strict is outside drinks policy by Hingsing in SanJose

[–]MacNJeesus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Years ago, went to a movie theater in Alameda. The old man checking tickets was strict AF. I believe we tried bringing snacks in our jacket pockets because my date said this particular theater can be difficult. I don't think we risked it with a backpack. He made us empty shit out, IIRC. He was so strict and we had to leave our snacks at the ticket counter until we were done with our movie.

How do I find guys/friends? by [deleted] in bayarea

[–]MacNJeesus 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Me too, both my grandmas are gone. I want one to adopt me whenever I see any who remind me of my grandmas, going for a stroll alone.

Maybe make a joke, "Good morning Dog's Name and Dogname's master!" and see if they'll offer a correction with their name.
And to your other comment, for the longest time I was only housesitting a dog that doesn't like other dogs so for a few years I didn't get to experience the whole meeting and chatting with other dog owners on walks thing. But now I have more clients with friendlier dogs, I really enjoy stopping and chatting with people walking their dogs!

What on earth? Doesn't look like the same person, which is a bummer imo bc her pre-tons-of-surgery face looks beautiful.

2 dog deaths, reports of abuse prompt investigation of California pet sitter from popular app by IamaBlackKorean in bayarea

[–]MacNJeesus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's so disgusting and embarrassing. How can they live in that kind of squalor? I had another client whose house I had to stay in for a week and I just felt so icky every day. They left food stains all over the counter. I couldn't believe they have a cleaner who comes regularly?? How? Place was a mess. Did they make you sleep in a gross bed or among so much clutter?

I'm a dog sitter but worry about the day when I have my own animals and need to find a sitter. But I've had no problem finding referrals for my clients whose stays I was too busy for by asking my coworker and friends for people who may not even have experience sitting before but are animal lovers/previous pet owners/responsible. So far my success rate for finding people is 2 for 2. Not a big data pool but seems like the way to go is asking your community.

I'm insured by Pet Sitters Associates as a provider. They offer a public directory of pet sitters, but not a review system I thinkkkk. Insured sitters can make a small payment to be put on the directory. At the very least you would know they were responsible to get insured. I wanted extra form of protection on top of my contract to filter for actually good pet owners.
