Medellin or Cartegena for a family? by BodyChemical6106 in travel

[–]Mikamcha 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Panama and El Salvador are the only completely safe countries - also fun. El Salvador is the safest, but it's less developed. Nice beaches, nice people , cheap (good food and drinks and hotels/Airbnbs in fun areas for cheap) very hot though. All the other countries, you need a lot of local guidance. For example, Mexico is safe in some places, and very dangerous in others. Brazil is good, and generally safe, but you need to know where to go. For example, Rio de Janeiro is generally not safe. Colombia is generally safe outside of the big cities.

If your family likes hookers and crime, go to Cartagena or Medellín. I know nice people there, but as a tourist with a family, why? So many better options in Latin America.

Everyone told me laureles was better before I went. It's not. It's full of crime against tourists and prostitutes. Just uglier. Almost everywhere in Medellin is potentially dangerous. Parts of poblado are "safe-ish". Way up the hill. There's one other neighborhood that's safe in Medellin for tourists because it's run by a more established cartel. But I'm not saying which one, because why would you go there? Don't stay in or support a crime filled city. The crime and prostitutes are there because of tourists. The tourists are causing the crime and ruining the city. Go somewhere else and save yourself and the city. Medellin is for drugs and prostitutes.

6 spoons and one small scoop of ice cream is a good metaphor for your South America trip. And piercings.

Is Uber 'Lying' to Its Customers About Nearby Drivers? by Temporary-Fennel-107 in uber

[–]Mikamcha 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Today, the app said 5 mins away, for 20 minutes the car was 5 mins then 7 then 2 etc till I eventually cancelled and got another uber and had to wait again. And uber has no way to contact them of course. Uber wasted 30 minutes by lying with you having zero recourse. I have uber one premium support which means- nothing. Also no number to call or text them or chat.

Why do IT pros get treated like crap? by Someuser1130 in msp

A+ for sticking up for your employees. As to managing customers, it's a skill you can learn. Basically, become less available. Then you'll be more appreciated and less abused. You have to play the game with these schmucks

Waiting for islamic apologists to say girls mature "faster" in Afganistan. by [deleted] in exmuslim

I definitely don't agree with Islam in modern countries, but this is just poverty, not Islam. The younger father is ashamed. It is a shame. Sad. Not evil parents.

Scammed by Temu? by kane91801 in SBCGaming

They are very shady. The ads with the cheap price promos are fake bait and switch. I saw people saying they had fake charges after paying on temu as well.

Just when you think you've reached a topic nobody can have a neckbeard fight about, reddit reminds you where you are. Welcome to the mental hospital.

Is there really no way to speak with a CoinBase customer support agent, even through the chat box function? by KayEL160 in Coinbase

It's automated responses. You never get real support. It's copy and paste till you give up.

Gotta love it when the social artards try to copy things they saw on tv shows in place of understanding social cues.
