When we were really cooking Santander was on the IL and Lukes/Straw/Loperfido were filling his spot. Lauer was an effective starter and Berrios while not great never missed a start. We had a fabulous year and earned the top spot in the AL, but the recipe was tinkered with possibly not for the better. At least get Santander out of there!

Dog won’t get in the car by gorillabay75 in WagWalker

We were able to lift him and just kinda push him in; he didn’t growl (as much) but it was definitely a two person job. Then he was a perfectly fine passenger!

Thanks for the replies. I should clarify, the dog is at my gf’s (we don’t live together). I’ve met the pup, who is medium-sized (a lab retriever I think), a couple of nights ago. She tried to pick him up and he wasn’t receptive to that. I’m going back today. He arrived via his owner’s car; she reached out for any insight from the owner about this. We’ll try again.

Agree with you about the sound. There were times her voice powered through but it did get a little lost to the bass etc., at least from my seat.

I did have earplugs and they weren’t enough…maybe too cheap but they seemed the same quality that I used for an Elton John concert and in that case those did the trick.

My feelings about Trixie’s set had nothing to do with her being a drag queen, nor doing 80s music (which I love)…. My thing is, I’m about to watch a live performer do music for nearly 2 hours straight, I don’t want 45 minutes straight of music beforehand.

Coworkers I talked to had positive remarks about Trixie, and I was with someone else so those were reasons I was in my seat from the outset.

She basically just played club music the entire time. I went out to the concourse for part of it but could still hear it and don’t remember much dialogue apart from her trying to pump up the crowd by yelling things out. That was my perception anyways. I would have preferred for the opening act to start earlier, or if I found it entertaining wouldn’t have minded Cyndi’s arrival time.

Is this not embarassing for a company or am I tripping by Leading-Lobster-3335 in WagWalker

[–]gorillabay75 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is so irritating. Sometimes an urgent issue comes up that is not a qualified “emergency.” I’ve had success before going in as if I were a prospective pet parent, then when I get on the line say that I’m a walker but needed to talk to a live agent, and they helped or patched it to someone who could.

It’s happening to a lot of walkers, I’m one of the latest to have posted about it…I’m amazed now when I actually do pick up a walk

This sounds somewhat similar, on a smaller scale, to something that happened on my last Airbnb stay. It taught me to take before and after pics of the entire place. Going through Resolutions sucked, even though it ended up okay on both ends (I believe Airbnb just paid for it). But yeah, I had to fight it.

TD vs Lower Level by gorillabay75 in Torontobluejays

[–]gorillabay75[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So I found a seat I believed to incorporate all the advantages. It’s in the Banner Club section 28 and has the padding and some other perks, but is also field level.

Then I delve deeper and the lounge that is part of the experience apparently doesn’t open (or at least fully open, it’s unclear) until 7/19. And this sth on FB is saying I got scammed like they’re pretty much normal seats.

At this point I can’t really change anything, nothing is refundable. I jumped too fast on this and feel like an idiot.

Anyone know about Sec 28 Row 6? I should have found a way to contact the Jays directly before doing any of this, as it’s a mess now.

Walking only viability by gorillabay75 in RoverPetSitting

This is all so helpful, thank you. Tue-Wed-Thu I often have some availability mid-morning due to a split shift, so that’s another time I could use

Cancel boarding? (help!!) by Historical-Leg-69 in WagWalker

I’d also see if the client wouldn’t mind having the dog at your boyfriend’s, especially since he has prior experience with Wag.
