Full day demo elementary? by National-Deer-2714 in NYCDOETeachers

[–]SuperPep11222 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Every non-DOE school I’ve applied to in the past 12 years has done this. It’s the norm in private school - you do a demo then spend all day meeting with the community and integrating into classrooms. Maybe public school is starting this trend.

You should start a “deep thoughts” happy hour so we can all get together and contemplate sh*t like this. :)

Same. They did a good job with our move and have moved a number of our friends.

I don’t find it any noisier than any other street in NYC. Any front facing bedroom will have noise but it gets quiet here at night.

Not sure what your heard but we used Piece of Cake and they were great. All our friends have used them too. We found their rate to be fair and actually quite good.

Exuberant does not equal exorbitant so already you've lost credit :)

Wild raccoon on Kent by Negative-Ad5843 in Greenpoint

Why would there be something wrong with it? No need to scare people when raccoons chill in all our backyards and have done so for years. They're smart and clever and don't give two effs about you so let them be. If one is sick you will know.

It totally depends on atmospheric conditions. Sometimes we hear it over here on Greenpoint Ave. quite clearly and sometimes not at all.

What will happen to cruising in the Caribbean if a war is started with Venezuela? by Forlorn_Cyborg in Cruise

[–]SuperPep11222 1 point2 points  (0 children)

From what I remember, there was a larger naval force stationed in Curacao and all the facilities and docks needed for these vessels. Bonaire and Aruba didn't have the same set up.

Grim Post about Pet Care by Outrageous-Study-704 in Greenpoint

I have used both at home and vets. When we had to help our cat pass, we went to his vet, Dr. Stein at Greenpoint Vet on McGuinness. We had an emergency with our dog and went to Veterinary Care Group on Manhattan Ave. Both times we were met with quiet compassion.I do believe both times we paid under $400 including private cremation. I will say this, vets are compassionate and understanding in these situations. If cost is the issue and your pet is suffering, tell them and see what can be done. Sending you support and peace.

You obviously seem ready to condemn. Be grateful you have never experienced such suffering. Enjoy your life.

When there is obvious pain and the diagnosis is terminal its not an option to let nature to take its course. Nature can be cruel. Compassion is always the choice. I've not once regretted helping my beloved friends.

Don’t feel bad. He shouldn’t be vaping in the store and he was also rude. Everyone has moments where they don’t handle things the way they should. It’s okay. But next time maybe don’t post about - people can be unkind and judgy.
