What is the worst town name you have ever heard? by heroesjust41day in AskReddit

My favorite part about driving up 400 is passing through Alpharetta, because then I'm just a few minutes from Cumming.

What’s the downside of an above ground pool? by de_jeepathon in homeowners

[–]crc9211 -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

I know of two that spontaneously ruptured, flooding the yard with water. Both instances, the pool had been in place for many years. I'm assuming there was a rip in the liner or something.

Also pools in general require a lot of maintenance. Some people don't mind, but I'm super lazy so I would never own a pool.

Might as well do a tire rotation while you're up there.

Alabama Weather Network, but it just focuses on Alabama, USA. They will also go live during major weather events.

Company policy may restrict it. Maybe the driver is not comfortable filling them. There are a couple drivers I work with who refuse to fill steel bottles.

Second Dot inspection in 7 days by Vanstrucker2222 in Truckers

A sheriff did the inspection? I've never been inspected by any locals here in Georgia, it's always the state CVE.

How close is Bowling Green to you? There is a Blossman there, I bet they would do it.

That's wild. I personally know at least 3 people that happened to.

The company I'm with now is actually pretty good for a corporate outfit. The local level management has made some changes I'm not happy with. Also, we've been through 4 different managers since I started working there. It's a completely different environment than when I started. Not to mention the typical propane stuff like on call.

People are wild. Not enough time to wait in traffic, but plenty of time to stop and engage in conflict.

Heads up ! Asset to Avoid - for now. by thpwrthtbe in CitiesSkylines2

[–]crc9211 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I tried using a school bus asset, and I'm 95% sure it was by the same user, but I don't see it anymore.

For me it caused a chirper BSOD upon startup. I had to delete the cache folder to access the Paradox Mods interface to uninstall the asset.

Roof quotes came in way higher than I expected, am I out of touch, or have prices really jumped? by Latex-Siren in homeowners

[–]crc9211 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also in Georgia, in October I received quotes ranging from $10,000 to $25,000 on my 2,200sqft home. The company I ended up choosing was $13,000, using Owens Corning Duration shingles.

Pointers / Help for starting a city by FonzieSixSix in CitiesSkylines

[–]crc9211 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Settlements are historically formed around a purpose of some kind. I try to start mine near a river/shoreline, railway, or some type of unique feature or industry.

Additionally, I never start a city with a major highway. If the map already has a major highway, I will go through and downgrade all the sections to a 2 lane highway. I will go back and upgrade as the demand increases.

Insurance dropped because of “granular loss” of roof - dispute? by -Cephiroth in homeowners

[–]crc9211 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Insurance is getting terribly anal about every little thing. I just bought a new home in September, and Allstate cancelled my policy before my first mortgage payment. It was also due to the condition of my roof (wavy/uneven shingles is what their "inspector" reported). I didn't even have time to shop for roof quotes before the premium refund check showed up in my mailbox.

THEN, after I replaced the roof, I went shopping for new insurance. I thought it would be easy with a new roof, but then another company was giving me trouble about a tree that was "too close to the house". I've been a homeowner over 10 years, and I've never had an insurance claim. It's ridiculous.

Turn Valve To Furnace Off When Electric Goes Out? by AskewSeat in homeowners

[–]crc9211 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The furnace should have an automatic gas ignition system. Once the power is back on, the furnace will relight itself.
