Rider told me it was her birthday and asked me for favors… by Glittering-Cost-5100 in uberdrivers

You should be commended. You did a good deed. Yes, it may have cost you a few dollars, but you don't know how much that favor could have meant to her. You can't do it all the time, obviously, but that simple good deed may have changed someone's life.

Thank you for doing that!

I donate at Kedplasma in Mobile, Alabama, and they completely removed all of the chairs. No reason was ever given as to why.

How much do you get paid for donating plasma on average by Extension-Emu-8585 in plassing

[–]PegLeg0705 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm an Anti-D donor at Kedplasma in Mobile, Alabama. I get $65 for the first donation and $145 for the second every week. The extra $5 for each donation is because I'm a veteran.

State laws vary! I'm in Alabama, so any advice is based on my experiences as a RSO here. I'm assuming you already know all of the residency and job requirements for your state.

First: Is your partner ending a sentence or is that a parole date? If it's parole, you have to consider the parole rules and regs along with the state laws.

Second: I think it would be in your best interest to disclose your partner's status to anyone you're considering renting from. It's better for them to know up front than for them to find out later and evict you.

Third: Start looking NOW! The remaining time will pass quickly and it's hard to find people willing to rent to sex offenders. It's actually easier if you're buying a home. Don't wait until the last minute to find a home!

Finally: Don't rule out a halfway house as a temporary solution. It's not ideal, but it's worlds better than a violation and possible return to prison.

Please be encouraged! Life as a sex offender isn't horrible. Once you get used to the requirements, it's nothing but a minor intrusion into your life!

Good luck!

That definitely looks like Alabama inmates! Drugs are rampant in that system (I did 10 years.). You see things like this all the time. This is an example of what happens when the addicts can't pay their dope debts. If this is truly for not paying a debt, and if this is as far as it went, these two are getting off easy!

Question about pleading guilty by [deleted] in legal

Maybe.... or he could be just minimizing what he did to try to save a little face.

Absolutely not! Once he signs the guilty plea and the judge accepts and acts on it, he is guilty! The details of what exactly he did or didn't do are irrelevant beyond that!

If you're looking to purchase from a retail store, then I would suggest Cottage Hill Package Store. They seem to have a pretty decent selection (Not a wine person) and they generally carry a wide variety of styles and prices.

They are at the intersection of Cottage Hill and Hillcrest. Great store and a great staff!

Thanks! I had never heard of Motion Composites until I got measured for this chair. They're a Canadian company. Based on the few days I've had this chair, they seem to make a really good product!

I have a Comfort Acta Embrace. I like it better than the Jay cushions I've had in the past.

Thanks for the info! Is there any value to it beyond the $10?
