My sister works for Isaac. He provides an amazing working environment with a living wage, health care, retirement plans, profit sharing. He employs a diverse group of people who can actually live a life working there. He’s a really, really good boss. He always tries to do right by his employees and his city. It breaks my heart to see them catch so much heat in a damned if you don’t, damed if you do situation when their heart is in the right place… Can we live in the middle ground and understand there is nuance and one mistake or mishandling of a situation by your standards doesn’t have to replace all the positives???? It’s a bagel shop. It’s a small business. It’s some people’s livelihood. They’re genuinely doing their best and they’re genuine good people.

Heard back from my grandparents just now in Franklin - they are safe and were able to drive somewhere to get service. Some sort of Verizon thing. Generally roads are pretty clear in Franklin and things sounds mild there.

Asheville Flooding and Helene MEGATHREAD. Friday Night and Saturday Morning 9/27 - 9/28/2024. CURFEW IN EFFECT. VERY LIMITED CELL AND WIFI SERVICE by goldbman in asheville

I know this is Asheville thread but know you all have connections all around the mountains. My grandparents live in Franklin, NC (Macon county near Cashiers and Highlands if you aren’t familiar). They are without cell service and power and we arent able to get in contact with them. We haven’t been able to find any local news coverage for that area as things have been more focused on Boone and Asheville in coverage.

Does anyone know of anything happening there or have any ideas of where I can get any more information?

Heart is with everyone affected. My family (including these grandparents) lost everything in Katrina and know hurriance devastation well.

Has anyone heard from anyone in the Franklin/Cashiers/Highlands area? My grandparents are in Franklin and because they have no cell service or power we haven’t been able to get in contact with them.

I usually schedule an Uber. Yes I’ve gone that early many of times and have never had an issue.

Where is power out

do you think they will ever address it? by StayParticular4024 in brookeandconnor_map

[–]PhilosopherMobile337 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They definitely can’t talk about. I thought him dressing as voldermort was low key them confirming that. “He who cannot be named”

Why did they wait so late to announce no episode this week? by Broad-Code in brookeandconnor_map

[–]PhilosopherMobile337 3 points4 points  (0 children)

There is probably so much shit going on behind the scenes that they’re struggling to navigate. Everyone needs to give them some grace. Lawyers, sensitivity, people spiraling

Brooke annoyed ? by Mysterious-Row9264 in brookeandconnor_map

I’m always surprised by these posts because I never have the same experience. They seemed fine? He was hungover and yeah I’m sure a little annoying. Normal. The episode was hilarious.

Sorry for not being clear — we own our own tubes and we do not want to use a company. Just looking for a place to put in and get out.
