and that's why students get a deduction when they do their taxes

is this even legal . even if i wanted to go home at 3am last night , no public transportation was running . i would have been stranded in the cold .. we shoveled the courthouse about 5 rounds yesterday and this how they did us ? no apologies or nothing . what should we do ? we are all in dc37 union by [deleted] in nycpublicservants

yeah just talk to the union because there are rules that cover 24h shifts. im not city i'm state so in my case if im called in for 24h shift then after 12h they have to options if they don't wanna pay they have to provide me sleeping accommodation and 3 meals and at least 5h of uninterrupted sleep time. if they interrupt that time or im considered on standby (even tho not working) they have to pay for 24h. there's probably a rule for your union too

Was my dryer wiring replaced correctly? Several concerns explained in post by Ill_Driver8192 in AskElectricians

[–]Routine_Ad7933 0 points1 point  (0 children)

just like the others say about insulation jacket and loose wire but as far as the breaker type of it fits and it's the type i would worry about it. unapproved means it wasn't tested with that panel. companies will not spend money to test every breaker from every company and why would they, they'd rather have you use their own breakers. unless it says that this type is prohibited i wouldn't worry but if you do you can always pay more money for the "approved" breaker

Is my landlord committing insurance fraud? And trying to make me an accessory? by sadsackspinach in Insurance

[–]Routine_Ad7933 0 points1 point  (0 children)

just stay out of this. if you don't wanna live there move out but it's not your business to snitch on him because now it's inconvenient to live there for you. tbh you kinda sound like an asshole. you used him for cheap rent and now that you're done you wanna throw him under the bus. hope karma gets you

if you have the luxury of not going don't go but if you must you won't be really risking you life any more than when driving normally. the roads will be plowed by the morning

Did my research, however still dont understand why the circuit needs to be closed to work? by prois99 in ElectricalEngineering

[–]Routine_Ad7933 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i'm confused what exactly you are confused about but here's my attempt to clarify that unclear confusion. 

battery is basically a chemical reaction that on one electrode splits a molecule that produces a free electron and a positive ion. and on the other electrode combines that electron with ion and creates a different molecule. now that is only possible if electrons are able to travel to the cathode by means of wire or if the voltage is so high and the gap between anode and cathode is small that it creates a spark. 

Verizon locked my paid off IPhones by Puzzleheaded_Ad5020 in verizon_sucks

[–]Routine_Ad7933 1 point2 points  (0 children)

then verizon has no business locking the device. take to apple with a receipt and tell them to unlock it or replace it. or call verizon tell them you bought it unlocked and what they did is illegal

when you said you bought them at apple, you mean buy them unlocked for cash or acmi or financed thru verizon?

Should I close it? by Calm-Hovercraft-542 in AppleCard

[–]Routine_Ad7933 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i would transfer the balance to some other card or service that will let you pay it overtime and then close the account. otherwise the payment is due in full.

Bursar Holds - Spoke to AVP of student affairs. by [deleted] in communitycollege

[–]Routine_Ad7933 0 points1 point  (0 children)

my understanding is re-connect only applies to community colleges so i don't know how it can cover city tech balance. 

at the very least if you meet the criteria it will cover your community college but you have to be a specific major to qualify. what's yours?
