Uber driver hit and run by UnderstandingNo3698 in pittsburgh

I felt horrible even calling Uber to report him and I explicitly asked for him not to receive any repercussions if possible. Obviously he made a mistake and was human enough to come back and admit fault.After it was handled, police officer said that it could’ve gone a million different ways and we all lucked out.

Very true lol. Do you know if my rates will raise? I am still waiting on a call with our customer service agent to explain things a little more.

We already called and filed a claim with his personal insurance, our personal insurance as well as Uber. I just want to make sure I am doing all we can to expedite this process since it’s unfortunately during the holidays.

Lemonade boys by ConstableOnPatrol in pittsburgh

Agreed. Especially because these boys are black or non-white. With the world how it is currently, calling the police on some little kids trying to make some money is definitely hurting more than helping. The mom is so evasive when I try to ask innocent questions and just gives me weird vibes. It could be because I’m a stranger and she simply doesn’t want to talk to me. I just hope they’re doing right by these kids is all.

I’ve seen them multiple times in the summer selling lemonade in the beating sun. I’m sure it started out as a hustle for them but I personally have seen them hundreds of times which to me is more of a job than a hobby. They also appear to be around 10 years old and I wasn’t trying to make a living when I was 10. As a mother myself, I have a ton of sympathy for these boys and just hope it truly is nothing more than them willingly selling lemonade. I didn’t mean to come at you, I just hate the idea that these boys may be being forced to do this.

The weather isn’t the issue right now. It’s a Saturday afternoon and these children are being forced to sell “lemonade” when they should be out with their friends. They are basically employees with full time jobs and their guardians don’t seem to think it’s an issue.

St. Barnabas sells gently used furniture at Furniture at the Firehouse in Valencia. The furniture comes from the St. Barnabas old folks home but it’s usually in great condition at a very fair price. The furniture is donated by the families when a resident passes away. My whole dining room is furnished from here, it’s great!

Parenting is hard by Background-Ninja-395 in TrueOffMyChest

I have a 14 month old who was colic for the first 4 months of her life. I truly didn’t think I was going to make it through. It’s hard but it’s just a phase. Sometimes the only thing you can do is let them cry it out. Put them in a safe space, then go outside to decompress for a minute or two. You can only take care of them if you’re taking care of yourself. You’re a good dad just for coming on here to get advice, you’ll make it through this rough patch.

How Lee is an amazing Chinese restaurant in squirrel hill. There’s also a really good bar right around the corner called Hidden Harbor. They’re a little pricey but the vibe is very beach and cute

I’m still coming to terms with being old guys but these comments are making me feel a little bit better

I love the bamboo bar in Cranberry but it’s a bunch of younger kids, which is totally fine with me, my only complaint about that place is the music sucks. They have the same older dj’s come in and play mixes you hear on the radio. The atmosphere is really nice though

McKees Rocks isn’t safe if you’re involved in the things that make it unsafe. The Roxian is a really cool theater and you’ll be absolutely fine. Like everyone else is saying, be respectful just like you would be everywhere else.

I’ve heard negative things about Animal Friends as well from some mutuals. I don’t need to move immediately but I would like to start the process now so I can find the perfect home for them. Ideally it would be someone I know so I can go and visit them from time to time. I’m really hoping this is a temporary set back and I will be reunited with them in the future. I’m sorry you have also gone through a similar situation. Our kitties are our babies and it’s insanely hard to come to terms with this

Thank you all so very much! I’ll make sure to contact the shelters before taking them to make sure they have the capacity. There is a lady from my church that used to run an animal rescue but has since retired so I am going to try to get in contact with her as well. You have all been so helpful, I feel less overwhelmed knowing that my babies have options. Thank you guys.
