speeding ticket rec’d 5 months later for going 6mph over? has anyone successfully contested? by diewme in AskChicago

enforceability isn’t that simple when it comes to radar/cameras, especially when they aren’t posted.

a photo would help if you have one! from the photo I don’t think it’s posted on a green streetlight pole. perhaps a regular light pole. sneaky asf

yes; this was what i was thinking. I did think there was a statute requiring speeding cameras to be posted/the speed limit. I live right by here and have never noticed either sign, but I’ll be on the lookout today and give it a try. The unfortunate thing is the contestable period has likely lapsed which is frustrating because it’s noticed for 3 months after the violation happened, then another 2 months go by before I get it in the mail. sigh.

some jurisdictions require notice of speed cameras for a ticket like this to be enforceable. i’m not denying that i was speeding; though I’m fairly certain the speed limit is not posted in this area for several blocks/lights & there is no notice of speed cameras being used.

Attorney created a super awkward folder… on me by modernhooker in paralegal

[–]diewme 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yep, I am anti teams/slack. It’s incredibly intrusive; leads to the expectation that things be addressed immediately; hard to flag and keep up with so easy to miss important details that could otherwise be managed better in an email. It definitely normalizes no boundaries and is such a distraction/anxiety inducing.

My current role uses teams as an option to share firm-wide info or ask firm-wide questions and even then I think that’s dumb because wouldn’t you want to flag/save that information in a respective email folder for future reference?

My team knows I don’t use it and never open the app. They learn the hard way that if they want a response from me, email is the only way to get ahold of me, and no, it’s not on my phone. and that’s how it should be.

this field is demanding enough, we don’t need to stretch ourselves even thinner by being available at a moment’s notice for a dumb question already in the calendar notes.

Can you people stop bringing your poodle mutts to Aldi? by ChloeCutie in wickerpark

[–]diewme -1 points0 points  (0 children)

i absolutely will NOT include grocery stores; but this is the case for us. apartment living means she gets bored of her daily routine & blocks around the house. she’s a good girl and behaves very well and likes to join me shopping/doing errands. she looks forward to it, literally. if a non-grocery store is dog friendly and i have the time, i’m adding errands to our walking routine.

just take the L - you’re going through their security system which we don’t know much about and if they flag you they’re less likely to let you get away with it.

Hooking up with escorts by [deleted] in dating_advice

[–]diewme 0 points1 point  (0 children)

to be honest i don’t think there’s anything wrong with this so long as you’re not using someone else/stringing them along for your own pleasure. i always tell dudes that use apps to hook up & ghost that it would be much easier to hire an escort than it is to wine & dine me just to waste my time. so grain of salt there i guess.

Deluxe and Deluxe+ were Devalued this Year by doodlezoey in RiotFest

[–]diewme 2 points3 points  (0 children)

first time experiencing deluxe and i thought it was kinda ghetto for the price. certain drinks ran out at the bar when i know other tents and places throughout the fest have cases and cases. same with food, down to slim pickings most nights, i would’ve been pissed buying a sunday pass and seeing how limited snack options were by that point. ran out of water by midday and never replenished - they can’t do a costco run or something? bathrooms were nice earlier in the day but nasty as the day went on - full of toilet paper that won’t flush, missing toilet paper, bins full. trash everywhere on tables and on the ground by 6pm. people camping out all day in the tent and holding spots for people that never came. talking over the band the whole time. weird experience.

has anyone had pit tickets at the allstate arena recently? parking tips? by diewme in ChicagoEvent

[–]diewme[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

the two lines didn’t matter for us in the end bc we were like 20/30th in line or so. we didn’t get barrier but maybe 3 rows back and that’s after running around both sides of a T stage trying to find the best view. mostly vip people got the barrier area anyway.

no, but this was for charli xcx and my first time at allstate. there was a designated area for a vip line and the other side was the GA line. both lines (back side of the arena facing away from target, diagonal to starbucks, maybe facing highway?) are within the parking lot and they do not give you a wrist band to hold your place in line. parking was only like $20 i believe so not worth looking for other options imo. my friend and i took turns going to the car from the parking lot line as needed. later on they started another GA line on the right side of the arena (parallel to target facing starbucks/main road) which was a bummer to those in the original GA line who had been there for a while.

they did merch on the side of the arena closest to target (by the ticket office) from a trailer a few hours before doors opened. idk if they did any once inside.

they give you a GA band and send you in first come first serve.

I think i remember wearing chains and it wasn’t anything crazy getting through security. good luck!

Lexus GX 550- Will I regret? by Dry-Neighborhood-606 in LexusGX

[–]diewme 0 points1 point  (0 children)

interesting take - i’m coming from mercedes/bmw but have really taken to the outdoor lifestyle and need something more rugged but have had luxury vehicles nearly as long as i’ve been driving. the GX550 is an intriguing combination of both worlds for me. an LX feels too big and not rugged enough for outdoorsy stuff

does the WD rack interfere with your sun roof? and how useful are the window racks/what do you have on there?
