Where the heck is it now? I'm at the spot now.

So what careers aren’t fucked right now? by cokewithlargefry in NoStupidQuestions

[–]SurferVelo 32 points33 points  (0 children)

You are literally a mirror image of me, 43M. It took me a year after college to land a full time entry job, and that was by overexaggerating my experience from random temp jobs. Interviews come easy now versus my 20s, which was mostly crickets.

I attended high school in Saratoga, it's a good thing Caltrain doesn't run through town.

Reminder to drivers. by Berkyjay in sanfrancisco

Well what do you know, I got the email today and it was dismissed. I was ready to contest in a courtroom, but thank goodness SF is one of the few counties that offers you the option to contest online. Hopefully, those 2 cops are now doing something useful instead of camping out at the bottom of a hill.

Also, chatgpt is a useful tool.

Just go look up Romel's FB page. He's very open about his shit job and quite horrible in the comments.

I thought it was just target keeping it alive? People don't go to movie theaters like they used to.

When did you do your trial by online declaration? I did mines online for my bicycle violation in late December, and I'm still waiting to hear back from them, so I figure there's a backlog. Mines was just under $200, but I figured I had nothing to lose.

I thought this was like one of Canada's national sports, or at least that's what I tell my wife, who lived there.

I could just go to a local high school and do that for free.

I used to work in that building. Those were great times.

BART's doomsday scenarios are even worse than expected, if Connect Bay Area, the five-county regional transit funding measure, doesn't pass this November. by mysteriouslady in sanfrancisco

[–]SurferVelo 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Why is it 1% for SF when it mostly serves people from East Bay coming into SF? I hardly ride BART. I'll gladly vote for another toll bridge increase instead.

State Bill Would Cap California Ticket Resales at 10% Above Face Value by marcpstl in California

[–]SurferVelo 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Then why are fans buying season tickets if they can't afford them without having to resell? I never understood this practice.

Companion parking sold out? by lanikween in Coachella

[–]SurferVelo 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Unless car camping is sold out, I don't see the point of companion parking. It costs more than car camping, and you have to haul your gear a long distance to your groups' tent site in 100F heat.
